Hi Rich,
I got problems connecting a Brother 8360P (http://www.brother.co.uk/g3.cfm/s_page/50670/s_level/17020/s_product/FAX8360PU1 )
to a Digium TDM400P card on a production system.
This fax is running OK when directly plugged to PSTN but cannot seem to hangup when connected to Digium TDM400P card.
We prepare deployment on a separate system and I cannot unplug this fax machine and move it to our test environment (which is on a different location).
I'm doomed to try to reproduce the bug with another fax machine.
And as you can guess, we were unsuccessful yet to reproduce it with the couple of (entry level) fax machines I could get a hand on.
So I was telling myself : "what if I could buy the most inclusive fax-modem, connect it to a PC, and run a bunch of test scripts to gather useful information on both production and preparation systems ?".
For example, it seems that Brother 8360P uses Super G3 mode.
Is there a fax-modem offering such capability so that I could easily check if I still cannot hangup when I enable or disable Super G3 mode ?
Ideally, I would run a batch script with a fax-modem-equiped-PC to gather compliance inputs against V34 and other fax standards.
Your advice underlining A200D PCM switching capability is very relevant, anyway, as it shows a way to prove a fax issue can be solved changing or configuring an analog TDM board.
Cheers

The fax modem is not really the issue with asterisk. By far, the
majority of existing analog fax machines installed and being sold today
will function just fine with asterisk.
