[asterisk-users] TDM410 PTSN line setup with 1 analog phone

[Joseph Towery]

Yes, I have connected that, and the pci card has the lights on.  I can now lift 
the receiver on the analog phone get dial tone and dial out.  Next I need to get 
the phone to ring when called.  Off to do more research.

Thanks for your help.

I have not use a TDM4xx card for a while, but I remember that in order 
for ringing to work, you had to plug in an extra molex connector into 
the card to supply power to the ringing generator portion.

If you forgot to do that...

BTW, I know about being a noobie.  I was there once myself and still am 
there every day learning and working with new stuff.  Sometimes not of 
my own choosing, but one must do what they need to keep getting those 
paychecks<GRIN>!
