Digium Wildcard TE407 / Wildcard TE412P

4.3.4. Digium Wildcard TE407 / Wildcard TE412P

The Digium Wildcard TE407P/TE412P supports both E1 and T1 networks, and it can be set on per-port or per-card base. This model has improved I/O speed, so it reduces the CPU usage. This card model is designed to be fully supported by Asterisk Open Source PBX. Also with the open source drivers you can develop your own applications that will use this card.

The TE407P and TE412P cards are 3rd generation cards, they use a hardware DSP module (from Octasic) to do hardware echo cancellation and DTMF detection.
This results in a better quality + a lower CPU usage.


                    TE407P	                                                   TE412P

TE407P vs. TE412P

What is the difference between Wildcard TE407P and TE412P? The only difference is that TE407P uses 3.3V PCI slot, and TE412P uses 5.0V.

             
    PCI 5.0V slot (above) & TE407P (below)    PCI 3.3V (above) & TE412P (below)

1. Installation

1.2. Hardware installation

Find empty PCI slot ( check one section above to check what PCI slot you need), plug the TE407P or TE412P card.
After successful installation, power on you Asterisk PBX system and you have only to configure the TE407P or TE412P card.

Did your OS recognize the TE407P or TE412P card ?

By typing ‘lspci’ you will receive a list of all the PCI devices you have. Note that Digium cards are recognized under different name:

- Communication controller: Unknown device d161:0410 (rev 02) for the TE412p / TE407p

- Communication controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc. Tiger3XX Modem/ISDN interface / Network controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc. Tiger3XX Modem/ISDN interface for the TE110p or the TDM400p
- Network controller: Jens Scoenfeld for the TE110p or the TDM400p

1.3. Software installation

To check how to install Asterisk , libpri and zaptel, please follow the steps described in this tutorial.

2. Configuration

2.1 /etc/zaptel.conf

To know how to configure zaptel.conf for the TE407P or TE412P, please have a look at this tutorial

span=1,0,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4,yellow
span=2,0,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4,yellow
span=3,0,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4,yellow
span=4,0,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4,yellow

bchan = 1-15, 17-31
dchan = 16
bchan = 32-46,48-62
dchan = 47
bchan = 63-77,79-93
dchan = 78
bchan = 94-108,110-124
dchan = 109

loadzone = nl
defaultzone = nl

2.2 /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf

To know how to configure zaptel.conf, please have a look at this tutorial

3 Loading the modules

First load the zaptel module:

modprobe zaptel

Then, load the driver for the specific card:

modprobe wct4xxp

Now its time to load the configuration, you can do so by running

ztcfg -vvvvv

This will result in an output like this:

Channel 123: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 123)
Channel 124: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 124)

124 channels configured.

Of course the output you get might differ, depending on your configuration.
The next step is to actually start asterisk,

asterisk -vvvvvvvvvvgc

You will now see a lot of lines scrolling, if everything went ok, this is what it should contain:

[chan_zap.so] => (Zapata Telephony w/PRI)

== Starting D-Channel on span 4
== Registered channel type 'Zap' (Zapata Telephony Driver w/PRI)

Good luck!

To now actually use the card, you will need to add a Dial extension in extensions.conf, more information about this file can be found in this tutorial

E.g.:

exten => _X.,Dial(ZAP/g1/003221341243);

The g1 is for group 1 as configured in zapata.conf,
group 2 would be g2 etc.

If you would like to dial out on a specific channel (e.g. 121), you would dial:

exten => _X.,Dial(ZAP/121/003221341243);

The leading zero's on the number you actually want to dial, depends on the configuration of the other end. (usually the carrier).

4. Possible errors & solutions

3.1 ZT_CHANCONFIG failed on channel 97: No such device or address (6)

3.1.1 Reason:

The reason to encount such error is that you have configured E1 line to work as T1. There are two solutions that will help you to solve this problem.

Hardware solution

The first solution is on hardware basis. You have to change the T1/E1 jumper on your Wildcard TE407P/412P to E1 option (closed).

3.1.2 Software solution

The second solution is to override the jumper settings. Two ways : linux command modprobe + parameter or small software hack ;)

modprobe

In case you have no access to the server you could still override the setting with a parameter to modprobe.
The driver accepts parameter t1e1override and decimal value between 0 and 15 wich corespond to binary from 0000 to 1111 where each bit corespond to a span. 0 is T1 and 1 is E1.

Decimal  |  Binary
      0       |   0000
      1       |   0001
      2       |   0010
      3       |   0011
      4       |   0100
      5       |   0101
      6       |   0110
      7       |   0111
      8       |   1000
      9       |   1001
      10     |   1010
      11     |   1011
      12     |   1100
      13     |   1101
      14     |   1110
      15     |   1111

But how to know which port is configured for T1 or E1? Take a look at the picture below.

Binary 0 0 0 0
Spans 4 3 2 1

To load a driver with all spans set to E1 do:

modprobe wct4xxp t1e1override=15

There is also a debug parameter. To enable debuging via syslog do:

modprobe wct4xxp debug=1

Hack

If the modprobe solution is not working, then edit wct4xxp.c and change 'static int t1e1override = -1;' to 'static int t1e1override = 15;'
