[Asterisk-Users] Fax with SPA-2000's?

[Seth Mattinen]

I've been trying to get fax reception to work using an SPA-2000 to ring 
the fax machine or modem that's taking fax calls. I was curious if 
anyone else had tried something similar, and if so, had any luck 
getting it to work reliably. I've been able to get it to work, but it 
isn't reliable. (Pages/lines of black dots result more frequently than 
not.) The incoming lines are FXO and going to something digital isn't 
an option. My setup looks like this:

POTS <---> X100P FXO <--> Asterisk <--> SPA-2000 SIP <--> Fax
Would I be better off using spandsp and have * take the fax call? Would 
a PCI FXS card be the best solution instead of the SPA-2000? I still 
need to be able to send using a traditional fax machine, which I'm 
guessing will suffer the same problem with the SPA-2000 that reception 
has.

If someone has been able to use the SPA-2000 to receive faxes reliably, 
I'd appreciate any tips or configuration settings. Here's my zapata 
settings:

signalling=fxs_ks
usecallerid=no
echotraining=yes
echocancel=yes
echocancelwhenbridged=yes
faxdetect=none
context=inbound-analog1
channel => 1
faxdetect=incoming
context=inbound-analog2
channel => 2
SPA-2000 is set to use ulaw only, changed Echo Supp Enable to "No" from 
default.
