OK, so have a few FXS ports reserved for alarm outbound calling. That could 
work, but I was hoping to capitalize on the existing PRI connection.

Lelio, 

You could remove the mgcp service from the fxs port, then create your dial 
peers (assuming your alarm only wants tone and doesn't need inward). 

Thanks, 

Ryan

James, 


Does this mean you have an h323 gateway? Right now, I have MGCP, which I'm 
guessing, precludes me from doing this.

With our security systems I have to remove the call manager from the call path 
for the system to complete due to the nonstandard tones they send. From my 
notes on how to configure this: 



On the VG224s: 


voice class h323 1 
h225 timeout tcp establish 3 
voice-port 2/13 
no timeouts 
dial-peer voice 23 pots 
service stcapp 
dial-peer voice 99 voip 
description h323 direct to voip1 for alarm number 
destination-pattern 13451015 
session target ipv4:10.101.0.5 
voice-class h323 1 
codec g711ulaw 
no vad 
dial-peer voice 98 voip 
description h323 direct to voip2 for alarm number 
preference 1 
destination-pattern 13451015 
session target ipv4:10.101.0.6 
voice-class h323 1 
codec g711ulaw 
no vad 


On the 2921s: 


voice service voip 
ip address trusted list 
ipv4 10.100.0.10 255.255.255.255 


The AVG is 10.100.0.10, the 2921s are 10.101.0.5 and .6, and dial-peer voice 23 
is for voice-port 2/13. These are GE security panels I think (which their MAC 
OUI confirms).

Are you using local h323 or sip 'pots' dialpeers to route directly between your 
FXS and T1 port? Or is call manager in between the call due to MGCP or VOIP 
dialpeers involved in the dialplan ? 
I doubt your issue is line voltage, since you can see the call being placed. My 
guess is the DSP is processing the call and causing issues. I've seem alarm 
boxes use nonstandard DTMF transmission that isn't properly recognized by the 
DSP. 
The 2800 supports DSP bypass by default when you route directly between ports 
using POTS dialpeers. You do need to have properly configured network clock 
configuration. 
Can you send a copy of your config along with the output of 'show controller 
t1' and 'show network-clock'

Hey Ryan, 

We have a channelized T1 with channels split between voice/data so the voice 
path is TDM. We have a VIC-4FXS/DID and for each of the two ports we have a 
single copper pair with rj11 on both ends, one side going to the FXS port and 
the other is going into alarm panel. The total distance from the 2800 to the 
alarm panel is around 20-30 feet and its a direct run, no 66 blocks or anything 
in between. 
Don't know model of the panel (this is another location)

Someone recommend this adapter offlist which looks interesting but the price is 
a little nuts as it costs more than all the equipment we have installed at this 
site combined.

Chris, 
Can you diagram the connections for me? 
Are the copper pairs swinging off a 66 block before terminating to the alarm 
panel or is there a direct copper path between the fxs port and the alarm? Are 
you using an RJ-11 or RJ-14 configuration? 
Could you estimate the copper distance between the termination points? 
Is the pstn path for the VG SIP or TOM? 
Also, I would be curious to know if the alarm panel is a Simplex Grinnell? 
Thanks, 
Ryan

Hello 
We have a location with a 2800 acting as a voice gateway where we have 2 FXS 
voice ports going to an alarm system. We are using the vic-4fxs/did line card. 
We have the alarm company saying they are seeing the panel reporting Comm 
trouble so we checked the call records and we also did some debugging in 
realtime and we see the calls are going out and when we plug a test set in the 
dial tone is good. 
In talking with the alarm company and researching we have come to believe the 
issue may be due to the idle and ringing voltages. We came across this link: 
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/voice/analog-signaling-e-m-did-fxs-fxo/28280-ring-idle-voltages-fxs.html
 
This looked promising however when we are in voice port configuration node we 
do not have the idle-voltage setting available. We tried several iOS versions 
in 12.4 as well as 15.x hut no luck 
Is this line card not capable of -48 idle voltage? What cards are? Do we need 
anything special as far iOS version? 
Ideally we want to have 2 voice ports that are as close to a standard pots line 
as possible. 
We are a bit lost as its the first time we have hit an issue like this and we 
are just hoping someone has been down this path before. If we have to change 
line cards or even to another platform we are open to it as long if someone has 
a setup that is known working in this manner 
Thanks in advance 
Chris
