[Asterisk-Users] Mobile phone integration via bluetooth
Has anybody tried to integrate amobile phonevia blutooth in asterisk PBX? I believe the most things needed are just existing in open source. I found a "kbthandfree" (http://docs.kde.org/en/HEAD/kdeextragear-3/kdebluetooth/components.handsfree.html)wich allows to control amobile phonevia an application and use your computer as "headset". You may dial und receive calls. Using a way like that it would be possible to integrate a mobile hone to astrisk (as channel - control and voice data are transported via bluetooth). So it would be possible to receive GSM (mobe phone)calls in the private branch, and even least cost routing using the GSM network und POTS would be possible. Did anyone start an integration like that?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] IAXy Power in Australia?
Jeremy Don't bother looking for a PSU with a lower current rating, The IAXy like any electrical device is designed to run at a particular voltage and consumes a certain amount of power (W) at that voltage. In simple terms this means that if the voltage is constant and the design parameters of the device don't change, the device will only draw the amount of current it needs to operate and no more. So a device that draws 500mA at 9V to operate, will only draw 500mA regardless of whether the PSU is capable of supplying 500mA (0.5A) or 5000mA (5A). This is why the electrical supply to your house may be capable of hundreds of amps (A) but your living room light with a 60W bulb only draws the 0.25A it needs to operate. Obviously an underrated PSU will not be able to provide enough current at the rated voltage and so the voltage will drop and the PSU will overheat, resulting in failure of the PSU and possibly the device connected to it, depending on the protection devices in the PSU. An overrated PSU (current wise) will just run cooler and be more capable of delivering the current the attached device needs. This is also why it is vital to have a fully regulated or switched PSU because there is no regulation circuit in the IAXy itself and if the voltage to the IAXy circuit changes so do its power and current requirements, making it unstable. OHM's LAW is a wonderful thing :) Cheers!

With it I dial in to digium's 1-700 number. The audio is better, but still choppy and unacceptible. Is your SIP phone doing any kind of silence suppression? It must be turned off because asterisk takes its timing from the RTP stream and if the phone's not transmitting frames continuously you'll get shitty audio. Good suggestion and I have double checked it. I am and was not doing that. I think I'd read about it in a Granstream-* page Note that latest CVS HEAD looks like they're making provisions for self-timing but without a stable clock source it's unlikely to help you. There are ztdummy modules which use the RTC or certain brands of USB controller to provide adequate timing but ideally you want some kind of Zaptel hardware in there providing a 1000Hz interrupt. Hmm, I thought that the timing source was only needed for trunking. I don't have on on the little box, but I do have a TDM400 (which seems to have faults, also, but Digium suggested moving the FXO to socket 4, we'll see if that helps) in the main box, so that should be all set for a timing source. Also -- make sure your uplink is acceptable. First test: make sure there is nothing plugged into your upstream except for your asterisk box and the phone. Some routers are known to play silly bugger with your packets which naturally wreaks havoc with asterisk. :-) The only things on the net when I run the next test will be my main server. Since I have to test on that with X turned off, I don't even need the SIP phone active. In case it might be relevant (there are SO many pieces to this puzzle that I want to mention all I can think of in case they ring a trouble-bell in someone's mind...) my router is a Netgear FVS318 acting as a NAT to my ISP. So even with X11 eliminated the sound is still bad to Digium. I tried another's 1700 number, and it sounded the same, so it's not something unique to digium and me. Perhaps something to do with your upstream or connection to IAXtel. That's why I'm recommending having nothing but asterisk and the phone on the connection, at least until we nail down what the poor audio's being caused by. That's possible. I've checked with my ISP and he said that the connection is surely half-duplex, but you say that you have 1/2 also and it works fine for you, so that's not it. I'm also inquiring about other filters they might have in place. I've heard them mention before that they had some cool router software that could detect traffic patterns usually associated with software and music piracy and then throttle that traffic into a small part of The Pipe. I haven't yet heard back, and I'm hoping that isn't the case. However, if it *is*, a VPN between offices might help. IAXtel would be shot, though. Hoever, if that *is* the case, I can probably convince them to tell their software to leave me alone on a couple specified ports. Would IAX/GSM be so sensitive to half-duplex that I cannot expect it to work with my ISP only giving me 1/2 duplex service? It has nothing to do with IAX or GSM. Stop blaming them. My upstream is half duplex as well (pretty much anyone on DSL or cable is on a half duplex connection whether they realize it or not). There are many, many people using asterisk every day for long distance and in environments where audio quality is crucial. Let's stop blaming asterisk and take a good hard look at what's happenning, shall we? My apologies. I'm not trying to blame anyone, I love * and except for a couple glitches that we're working on (with all your gracious help), I'm very impressed. My one glitch may be with the hardware, so that's a separate issue, but the other is trying to figure out this issue with IAX/GSM. When I ask about sensitivity, I don't mean to be accusatory. IAX is open and freely available and GSM is freely usable, and I'm glad. Sometimes OSS has its limitations and I am willing to work with them. So I do not intend any condescention(sp?),

If you think that the jitter buffer isn't working right and should fix this, then please capture debug from the buffer and send over to me. I'm not sure what the problem is. What I am hearing does sound like the descriptions I've read w.r.t. the jitter buffer, but making jitter buffer changes haven't really changed the effect. That gives 2 possibilities: 1. That the jitter buffer isn't working and it *should* fix the problem. 2. That the problem is completely independent of the JB so there is nothing the JB can do to fix it. To do that, in /etc/asterisk/logger.conf edit the debug line to be: debug = notice,warning,error,debug,verbose Then run asterisk like so: /usr/sbin/asterisk -vv -g -dd -c Then go iax2 debug at the CLI prompt. Do a test call, then send me the resulting /var/log/asterisk/debug file. I will do that. Hopefully that will help us isolate the problem and perhaps eliminate the jitterbuffer from the equasion. :) I will try to run this test today and report back my findings. Also, on Thursday I will be going into the main office. I will take my little * box and try the IAXtel test there.

Asterisk is a latency-sensitive application and serving files, web pages, etc. is just asking for trouble. Certainly it can be done but you're asking for weird and inconsistent little problems.

[Asterisk-Users] Jitter buffer
Hi, I thought I'd repost this to the -users list for some background on the jitter buffer and its workings and remaining issue.s I'll also pu a little executive summary here at the top: Where a channel is native bridged to another iax2 channel: 1) Lag is not measured and will usually show 0ms. Any other number is an old measurement from the start of the call 2) The jitter buffer on this machine is not used. Any jitter/jitterbuffer measurement shown is left over from the start of the call.

Andrew Kohlsmith wrote: I've been keeping an eye on the jitter buffer ever since upgrading and using Steve's patch to fix the 65s dead air problem but I've been noticing something... ... Asterisk frequently gets lag and jitter mixed up. This directly affects the jitter buffer, as the jitter buffer only grows when jitter grows. Hi Andrew, Please send logs to me. Or put them somewhere where I can get them. You need to understand that lag and jitter are measured completely independently, and need to be interpreted with care... First lag: Lag is measured by sending a LAGRQ frame from the one (final) end to the other (final) end. This frame has our timestamp time at which it was sent. When it arrives at the other (final) end it is immediately sent back. When it arrives back at the starting point, the echoed timestamp is compared with now and a lag is derived. Notice that the compared timestamp is our own - so I don't agree with Steve's claim that the two ends need synchronised clocks. Each end of the IAX call send LAGRQs every 10 seconds, so the measurements are just a snapshot and not some sort of super accurate smoothed figure or anything. Its important to understand about the impact of native bridging (see chan_iax2.c, forward_packet). If an IAX2 call goes over multiple hops. (eg callerA - server1 - callerB), Asterisk servers in the middle of the path just blindly forward frames, and don't themselves process the LAGRQ packets. (There is a little tweak done to the timestamp so they have the right 0-point for each leg, but that should have a nett zero effect) So you will find lag as 000msec on machines in the middle of the call (eg server1 here), and you also need to understand that the lag reported on callerA and callerB machines is actually the lag for the whole path. So this is most likely the explanation for the 0ms lag. Perhaps we should change the iax2 show channels to highlight this situation in a special way. It is possible I suspect for a lag measurement to slip in before the call is completely established and the native bridging kicks in. So I suppose you might see an initial measurement left over. The -1ms is probably some sort of rounding error which should be looked at. The same principle applies to the jitter buffer. Asterisk servers in the middle of a call do not do de-jittering, they leave it all to the end machines. Or, at least, that is so once native-bridging kicks in. Again, the jitter buffer on an intermediate machine will be used whilst the call is establishing but will stop being used once the call is established. So I wouldn't expect meaningful jitter figures reported for calls being native bridged on this box. Perhaps again we should hide them and mark N/A or something? Jitter is measured quite separately to lag. It is done by comparing the delay that arriving frames have experienced. You see (more of less) the biggest variation in delay seen over the last 2 seconds. Its quite possible for the jitter to show as more than the lag. The lag is a snapshot as seen by one frame going there and back. The jitter is measured by looking at 100 frames. And is, more or less again, the delay seen by the most delayed frame minus the delay seen by the least delayed frame. The jitter buffer only has a relative view of things and doesn't know the absolute delay - because it only has the other side's timestamps to look at. So you can see that you could get a 20msec lag and even a 1msec jitter. I'd just comment that the jitter buffer only needs to account for jitter. It matters nowt to the jitter buffer if the packets have been 2 hours in transit as long as they arrive at a steady pace. Sometimes timestamps on an iax call do jump rather than incrementing steadily. This can happen for example where voice starts coming from a new source. The jitter buffer sees

The result is that sometimes the source of the timestamps changes - and suddenly. Like - we're playing locally generated Playback() audio down the line, then the dialplan rings another IAX2/ address. Then the other end answers. First the timestamps come from the Playback, then the ring generator, then from the remote IAX2/ system... So the discontinuities get in.

Roy Eddleston wrote: Jeremy Don't bother looking for a PSU with a lower current rating, The IAXy like any electrical device is designed to run at a particular voltage and consumes a certain amount of power (W) at that voltage. My comment was based on opinions of others that have posted to this list stating the PSU that shipped was 900mA or was it only 800... in any case most devices are rated with a maximum amount of amp needed, not the minimum, devices usually don't draw a constant amount of amp, it varies depending if it's actually doing work or not, and since most of the time this device will most likely be idle (ie not in a phone call) it's unlikely to draw the maximum current most of the time... On the other hand if the device design has changed and the requirement for current has also change then it's possible later models won't require the same amount of amps, this can be due to refinement of design to be more efficient and require less power or any other number of reasons... Duane My post was directed at Jeremy to save him wasting his time replacing his 1500mA PSU with one of a lower current rating, but since you've replied quoting one paragraph out of context it warrants a reply so there is no confusion. I agree that devices are generally rated with the maximum current they require, plus a margin for safety, I never said they didn't. I also agree that the current drawn by the IAXy will vary (potentially up to it's maximum rating) depending on what it is doing at the time and whether an attached phone is off hook, ringing etc, again I never said it wouldn't. If you read the whole text of my post it is based on electrical/electronic principals for devices in general not just the IAXy although it makes no difference. You're also correct that if the design of the IAXy has changed it may have a lower maximum current REQUIREMENT or indeed a higher one, I said that in the second paragraph of my post. However your comment Have you tried feeding it less amps at all is impossible to achieve unless the PSU concerned is underrated and incapable of supplying sufficient current to the device at the rated voltage, in which case the PSU would then overheat and its output voltage drop therefore resulting in potentially early failure of the PSU and instability or failure in the device connected to it. This misled Jeremy into thinking purchasing a PSU with a lower current rating would achieve anything, his PSU is a 1500mA unit which is rated correctly according to the manufactures specification and will provide whatever current is needed up to and including 1500mA depending on whether that 1500mA rating is a constant current rating or based on a specific duty cycle, but that's another ballgame that I am not going to discuss here. You can not feed a device less current, a device will DRAW whatever current it needs depending on the supplied voltage and the resistance of its internal circuits or other circuits attached to it, the only thing that matters is that the PSU or device supplying that current is capable of supplying the maximum current the attached device will draw. So as I stated in my previous post, if the IAXy or any other device requires a current of say 800mA for example, it does not matter whether the PSU or device supplying that current is capable of supplying 800mA or 100,000A, the device will still only draw the 800mA it needs and no more, you can not feed it less.

[Asterisk-Users] System freezes when using Festival with usecache
I am using Festival to synthesize some menu Interaction with a caller and am having a problem. What I am working on is a remote callback where I can remotely call in to an extension, and enter a callback number (or use the CALLERID info) and a second outbound dialing number to connect to.

[Asterisk-Users] Revert to dial tone?
I am wondering if it is possible for an extension that is served by a zaptel device to revert to dial tone once a call disconnects. For instance, if I make a call to another extension, talk with them, and THEY hang up, can I then be presented with a new dial tone rather than a congestion tone? Further, can an extension be set up so that, once the call goes back to dial tone, if the user does NOT dial any digits within a timeout period, + the PBX will return 30 seconds of congestion tone, and then + the PBX will return 60 seconds of howler tone, and then + the extension is 'locked out.' ?

There a fundamental expectation that the sending side is correctly stamping each frame - 20msec, 40msec etc etc. The problem is that the sending side doesn't always do that. Sometimes for one reason or another the stamps jump. The receiver has no way of telling that the sender mangled the timestamps, and assumes that the packets with the new stamps have been delayed, or arrived early, or whatever. Either way, the jitter buffer does its thing and unknowingly makes things worse. Unfortunately, this is why you can still be better off without it - but the problem really needs to be fixed by fixing the timestamp generation on the sender.

I encountered a strange behaviour when I try to make a call from the IPPhone to my Asterisk box : = here is the H.323 configuration for the incoming calls (192.168.1.50 is the IP of the Siemens phone) : [Damien]type=userhost=192.168.1.50context=incoming = the incoming context has a single extension : [incoming] exten = 666,1,Playback(demo-echotest)exten = 666,2,Echo exten = 666,3,Playback(demo-echodone) = the IPPhone is configured to use the Asterisk box as a H.323 gateway (system type = "Gateway" / IP address of the gateway = IP address of the Asterisk box) = when I dial "666" on the IPPhone Asterisk seems to answer the call then 2 seconds later it hangs up : * DEBUG MESSAGES DURING THE CALL * == New H.323 Connection created. -- Received SETUP message -- Setting up Call -- Call token: [ip$192.168.1.50:1257/5625] -- Calling party name: [] -- Calling party number: [987654321] -- Called party name: [666] -- Called party number: [666]Urgent handlerAug 30 11:48:32 DEBUG[56142768]: pbx.c:1255 pbx_extension_helper: Launching 'Playback'Aug 30 11:48:32 DEBUG[56142768]: channel.c:1666 ast_set_write_format: Set channel H323/ip$192.168.1.50:1257/5625 to write format GSM -- Received RELEASE COMPLETE message... -- Sending RELEASE COMPLETE 1:32.765 H245:8a174a0 h323.cxx(3195) H245 Read error: Interrupted system call 1:32.781 H323 Cleaner h323.cxx(1542) H323 Connection ip$192.168.1.50:1257/5625 terminated.-- 987654321, 987654321 [192.168.1.50] has cleared the callAug 30 11:48:35 DEBUG[56142768]: channel.c:1666 ast_set_write_format: Set channel H323/ip$192.168.1.50:1257/5625 to write format ALAWAug 30 11:48:35 DEBUG[56142768]: pbx.c:1827 ast_pbx_run: Spawn extension (incoming,666,1) exited non-zero on 'H323/ip$192.168.1.50:1257/5625'Aug 30 11:48:35 DEBUG[56142768]: channel.c:733 ast_hangup: Hanging up channel 'H323/ip$192.168.1.50:1257/5625'Aug 30 11:48:35 DEBUG[56142768]: chan_h323.c:531 oh323_hangup: oh323_hangup(H323/ip$192.168.1.50:1257/5625) == H.323 Connection deleted. = if I had a "Wait 1" in front the extension it works : [incoming]exten = 666,1,Wait,1exten = 666,2,Playback(demo-echotest)exten = 666,3,Echoexten = 666,4,Playback(demo-echodone) * DEBUG MESSAGES DURING THE CALL * == New H.323 Connection created. -- Received SETUP messageUrgent handler -- Setting up Call -- Call token: [ip$192.168.1.50:1260/5626] -- Calling party name: [] -- Calling party number: [987654321] -- Called party name: [666] -- Called party number: [666]Urgent handlerAug 30 11:53:34 DEBUG[114731952]: pbx.c:1255 pbx_extension_helper: Launching 'Wait'Aug 30 11:53:35 DEBUG[114731952]: pbx.c:1255 pbx_extension_helper: Launching 'Playback' =*= In CreateRealTimeLogicalChannel for call 5626 -- externalIpAddress: 192.168.1.201 -- externalPort: 15508 -- SessionID: 1 -- Direction: IsTransmitter -- Started logical channel: sending G.711-ALaw-64k{sw} -- channelsOpen = 1 -- Connection Established with "987654321, 987654321 [192.168.1.50]"Aug 30 11:53:35 DEBUG[114731952]: channel.c:1666 ast_set_write_format: Set channel H323/ip$192.168.1.50:1260/5626 to write format GSM =*= In CreateRealTimeLogicalChannel for call 5626 -- externalIpAddress: 192.168.1.201 -- externalPort: 15508 -- SessionID: 1 -- Direction: IsReceiver -- Started logical channel: receiving G.711-ALaw-64k{sw} -- channelsOpen = 2Aug 30 11:53:36 DEBUG[114731952]: rtp.c:1156 ast_rtp_write: Ooh, format changed from UNKN to ALAW Any idea about this "H245 Read error: Interrupted system call" that appears in the debug messages???

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Sip device not login or register calls to that device go to busy voicemail not un-available
From my observation, if a call cannot be successfully placed then execution goes to n+101. So for example if a phone is busy then the call can't be placed (channel can't be created) and you jump tp n+101 which is typically voicemail busy. In the case of a phone being offline then the call cannot be placed and hence the jump to n+101 and again the busy message. What I did in this situation is have some logic at n+101 that checks $DIALSTATUS and then takes action as appropriate (In this case forward to reception, but easy to send to unanswered voicemail instead - specify unanswered voicemail at line 106) exten = _123495XX,1,Macro(SetCID,${CALLERID}) exten = _123495XX,2,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:4},16,tr) exten = _123495XX,3,Voicemail,u${EXTEN:4} exten = _123495XX,4,Hangup exten = _123495XX,103,GotoIf($[${DIALSTATUS} = CHANUNAVAIL]?106:104) exten = _123495XX,104,Voicemail,b${EXTEN:4} exten = _123495XX,105,Hangup exten = _123495XX,106,Dial(SIP/9500,20,tr) exten = _123495XX,107,Voicemail,u9500 exten = _123495XX,108,Hangup exten = _123495XX,207,Voicemail,b9500 exten = _123495XX,208,Hangup Craig - Original Message - From: Ariel's Hotmail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 30, 2004 2:11 AM Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Sip device not login or register calls to that device go to busy voicemail not un-available I feel this is in error some place.

[Asterisk-Users] Bridging audio in cmd_dial() before connect completes?
Is it possible to make cmd_dial() bridge the audio going out to the network back to the calling party as soon as dial() starts? Put another way, is it possible to have the caller hear the outside dialtone and subsequent DTMF digits? I notice that there is an option 'r' to dial(), thus: r: Generate a ringing tone for the calling party, passing no audio from the called channel(s) until one answers. Use with care and don't insert this by default into all your dial statements as you are killing call progress information for the user. Which implies that the caller should normally be able to hear the network side ringing/busy etc., but is ambiguous on the actual dial sequence. I ask because I'm using EM tie lines from a Norstar, via Asterisk and I get no audio at all after dial() and before the connect status is reached. I'm using in-band signalling at the moment and the 5 to 6 seconds of 'dead line' during dialing is confusing my users. I tried on hold music during connect (option 'm'), but that confused them even more... For now they have grudgingly accepted an 'outside transfer' playback before the silence period. I have tried including an Answer() before the dial to patch the audio, but with no change. Obviously opening the channel to two-way audio before the dialing sequence is complete would be a security problem so, any suggestions?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Zap channels stuck in 'Rsrvd' state
Good Evening I found your post about this problem. Did you ever find a fix for it? I'm experiancing the same problem. Thanks. Quoting Steve Creel [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I have two Adtran 750's connecting our analog phones to asterisk. On occasion, I get a channel that gets stuck off hook. 'show channels' shows: Zap/27-1 (longdistance s 1 ) Rsrvd (None) (None) And will just stay like that until the phone is manually picked up and hung up again (or asterisk is stopped/started). I guess this is a function of an unclean hangup (being read as a flash instead of a hangup?). A 'soft hangup zap/27-1' will not do anything (though it makes an attempt). Does shortening the rxflash time sound like it may help this? (Does anyone have a good explanation, or link to one, of the prewink, wink, preflash, flash, start, rxwink, rxflash, debounce timing functions?) Thanks, as always...

[Asterisk-Users] ${CONTEXT}
I have some problems with my extensions.conf. When a call from pstn comes in, the call gets put into the [from-fxo] context. From there the caller is able to dial sip extensions that are included from the [sip-extenions] context. When a sip extension is dialed and connected, and then at some point transfered, the ${CONTEXT} variable is changed from [from-fxo] to [from-sip]. This leaves the caller from the pstn open to all extenions that normally only my sip (trusted) clients would be able to dial, such as outgoing calls on my other FXO ports. Is the changing on the ${CONTEXT} variable by design (and needs to secrured in my dialplan) or a bug ?

[Asterisk-Users] Still unacceptable echo on X101P
I am still having unacceptable echo on my X101P and twidling with the rx/tx gain levels and echo settings appears to have no discernable effect. Some questions for those who may have more significant electrical engineering background than I. 1. This impedance match thing ... will it affect this solution having other phones in parallel with the X101P? This is done so that I can test while not having the system pickup/handle all the calls in the house until I'm ready to launch it. 2. What about the effects of it being downstream from a DSL line filter? 3. If impendance mismatch is the (or a major contributing) factor, can we not devise some interface circuit which will allow a variable rate on the impedance so we can dial out the echo based on individual line conditions? dbc. -- David Cook ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

The T1/E1 channels are clocked to the card remote end. IP is clocked to incoming packets.

[Asterisk-Users] Help debugging voicemail problem
Hi, I am fairly new to asterisk. I am currently testing my first setup. I've been able to debug most of the problems to make asterisk work with my hardware setup until this time. Currently I have the following issue: Voicemail is running but when I test to leave a voicemail thru my incoming PSTN channel (voicetronix / vpb), asterisk will not detect sound (according to the log) on that channel and outputs the following: -- Executing VoiceMail(vpb/1-1, u3001) in new stack -- Playing 'voicemail/default/3001/unavail' (language 'en') -- Playing 'vm-intro' (language 'en') -- Playing 'beep' (language 'en') -- Recording the message -- x=0, open writing: /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/3001/INBOX/msg0001 format: wav49, 0x8149590 -- x=1, open writing: /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/3001/INBOX/msg0001 format: gsm, 0x81496b0 -- x=2, open writing: /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/3001/INBOX/msg0001 format: wav, 0x81497c0 Aug 30 00:05:07 WARNING[19475]: app_voicemail.c:1442 play_and_record: No audio available on vpb/1-1?? -- User hung up -- Executing Hangup(vpb/1-1, ) in new stack == Spawn extension (incoming-pstn, 3001, 4) exited non-zero on 'vpb/1-1' == vpb/1-1: Hangup requested == vpb/1-1: Ending record mode (1/yes) vpb/1-1: stopped record thread on vpb/1-1 == vpb/1-1: Ending play mode on vpb/1-1 vpb/1-1: Setting state down == vpb/1-1: Hangup complete Restarting monitor Trying to reawake monitor Monitor restarted Monitor got null event Any advice/pointers/suggestion are greatly appreciated :) Lethol ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [Asterisk-Users] zaptel configuration

I was told I had to REINSTALL asterisk after the zaptel stuff, which again didn't do anything. How can this be so hard to even get installed? Thanks, Imran Assuming your zaptel.conf and zapata.conf files are correct, you should have to issue a ztcfg -v. The output you see should match your configuration. In the future if you make changes to your zap*.conf files, you need to stop asterisk, re-run ztcfg, then restart askterisk. The reload command doesn't do anything with the zap*.conf files. I hope this helps. This is first time helping on this list.
