[asterisk-users] Digium TDMXXB and Electronic Noises

2008-01-31 Thread Matthew Yingling
I recently moved an installed and working Asterisk system from one PC to
another.  I moved two Digium TDMXX cards and the OS as well  (a live
distro).  I tuned the hardware on the new PC, but for some reason analog
calls periodically have some electronic noise.  It's like beeps, but more
musical.  I do not recall noticing this on the old PC, but immediately
noticed it on the new system.  Since the hardware and the OS are the same,
I'm not sure what could be causing this issue, or how to remedy it.  Any
ideas?

Thanks,
Matthew Yingling

2008-01-31 Thread Matthew Yingling
You are probably both correct.  I noticed that both of our TDM cards, and
the Ethernet card are all sharing  the same IRQ.  Since we do VOIP
internally and analog externally, that IRQ is getting hit twice for any
outbound or inbound calls.  The system is new, and the OS supports ACPI, so
I'm not yet sure what's going on.

 I second that. IRQ issues are more than likely causing the problem.
 Check your interrupts and see if your TDM cards are sharing IRQs with
 any other devices. From past experience, I know we would get the same
 behavior when an analog card was sharing an IRQ with a storage
 controller. Any amount of disk activity would cause little blips and
 beeps in the audio stream. Make sure you have all extraneous unneeded
 devices turned off in the BIOS.

 IRQ issues i would suspect.
 
 Also,just because two machines are the same make and model absolutely
 does not mean that they have the same hardware.  I have seen exact
 server models ordered from CDW at the same time have very different
 chipsets.

 Why would the thin client be unable to provide a good experience doing
 that?  If it was going to provide poor sound quality due to network
 latency for example, wouldn't it stand to reason that the display would
 be garbled or slow to respond as well? Just a thought.  And would using
 the VOIP phone lighten the need for network resources?

There is the possibility that audio will not be available via thin client,
such as with Windows 2000 Terminal Server.  Optional audio support was added
to WinXP/2003.

Hi,

 My quick guess would be that it's a timing issue.  You didn't mention
 whether you are using a Zaptel device or ztdummy.
 
I'm using ztdummy, and yes, I guess your're right - it seems to be a 
timing problem, because I found the following messages in /var/log/messages:

Dec  3 22:51:36 asterisk kernel: [25713.830465] printk: 249 messages 
suppressed.
Dec  3 22:51:36 asterisk kernel: [25713.830468] rtc: lost some 
interrupts at 1024Hz.

BTW:
 name -a
Linux asterisk 2.6.22-14-386 #1 Sun Oct 14 22:36:54 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux

But what does lost some interrupts at 1024Hz tell me? And if it is 
related to my problem, how do I solve it?

Thanks for your help,

Stefan

[asterisk-users] Remote Office, Centrally Shared Voicemail

2007-11-30 Thread Matthew Yingling
Hi,

I'm trying to set up a remote office with its own Asterisk Server they'll
have a dedicated land line, but we'll still want them connected to the main
office via VOIP (IAX2 via VPN).  I've tested using IAX2 to bridge between
the offices based on extensions, since the extensions we want to share are
in isolated blocks of numbers.  I'm not sure how to handle voicemail though.
I'd like to link the voicemail so that local calls to either office will
call extensions and leave voicemail with the appropriate parties.  I'd like
to avoid Please call a new number messages.  I have some ideas:

1.  Use central network storage for both offices - if the remote VPN goes
down, the remote office can't connect to the voicemail storage, so they
can't see old voicemail, and may lose new voicemail.

2.  Use local storage for all voicemail.  Only the local office can see or
receive voicemail.  This would require a Please call a new number message,
I think.

3.  Implement some sort of backup script - use local storage for each
office, then periodically sync voicemail folders over the VPN. 

Can anyone suggest an approach to this problem?

Thanks!

Matthew Yingling

We use this macro, which works quite well:

[macro-checkuservoicemail]

Yeah, I was trying to have it match the caller ID with what they're dialing
so that I don't have a separate entry for every customer.

I did it anyway. i used another way around to do it:

suppose 88777 is your number

exten= 88777,1,Dial(SIP/you)
exten= 88777/88777,1,VoiceMailMain()

but in this case you will have to make a separate vm extension for every
user.

RE: [asterisk-users] Iaxy clicking

2007-05-16 Thread Matthew Yingling
Hi,

Can any one suggest if asterisk-users is the best mailing list for questions
on Digium Iaxy (S101I) hardware, or a different one if not?

I found this link on Digium's site:
http://kb.digium.com/entry/15/120/

However, I assume that if this was the case, all of my Iaxys would click,
and only one of mine does.  Is Digium referring to clicking coming from the
FXO/FXS hardware or the Iaxy device?  My constant clicking is coming out of
the Iaxy, whether or not it's connected to the VOIP network.

Thanks,
Matthew Yingling

Hi,

I have three Iaxy devices (s101i) parts.  Two of them seem to work fine.
The third plays a loud repeating click sound when an analog phone is plugged
in.  I can provision all of them, and make calls to all of them.  The
clicking one will blink when a call is incoming, but no audio from the call
can be heard on the handset, and the caller only hears silence.  The same
handset works on the other Iaxys, and other handsets have the same clicking
issue.  Resetting the Iaxy doesn't seem to fix the problem.  Does anyone
have any ideas on how to fix this problem, or whether the Iaxy is broken and
unfixable (for me as an end-user).

Thanks,
