[Asterisk-Users] Re: FAX with Asterisk
Hi Nahid, I think youll want a fax on-ramp and off-ramp on your asterisk boxes instead of trying to send a fax using VoIP (SIP). I believe it is possible but not recommended. There are technical reasons for this that you can find online in many places. Basically asterisk answers the fax and sends it to your fax program. the fax progam receives the fax, turns it into a TIFF file and emails it to the other end of your network. then the process is reversed and the TIFF is faxed via software out the T1 at the other end. This process has a standard called T.37. Im not sure if there is currently support for this in asterisk or not (search the archieves) but its what I do with our Cisco router and a very neat little windows fax program called T37FSP from Sandler Consulting. You could prolly use the free version for testing. hope this helps, cheers, Mick Nahid Hossain [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:!~!UENERkVCMDkAAQACABgABittf/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, I want to do FAX through Asterisk with the following scenario: Fax Machine --àNortel PBX ---à E1 (euro-isdn) ---à Asterisk -à SIP -àAsteriskà E1 (euro-isdn)-àNortel PBX--à Fax Machine Is there anyone who can help me to configure the above scenario without any extra application/software.

[Asterisk-Users] Digi QuadMicro ISDN adapter with asterisk?
Hi all, Has anybody used this card (Digi QuadMicro) with asterisk or can anybody tell me the likelyhood of it working out OK? I need a multiport BRI adapter for use with asterisk in Japan and this card seems to support INS64 (Japanese BRI standard) and also CAPI 2.0. here is a link to the datasheet: http://www.digi.com/pdf/prd_mca_datafirequad.pdf Ive only used asterisk with Cisco SIP gateways so Im not sure if this is enough information. thanks again for any help, cheers, Mick Hastings ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation sponsored by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Hi Clive, Thank you for your response to my posting. It looks to me that the intel board is the same as the dialogic board Can you please tell what that means? I haven't worked with any BRI cards before so I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. Is / was the dialogic board compatible with asterisk? Using CAPI drivers? Can you please point me in the right direction for more information for this card? Im sure you get the picture here, I really don't know where to start J and really appreciate your help.

[Asterisk-Users] Japanese ISDN BRI card for asterisk (INS64) where to start?
Hi All, I currently run asterisk in our office (in Japan) and use a cisco PRI gateway for connection to the PSTN. I would like to setup some more systems for our smaller offices (in Japan) that would use BRI and preferably using a PCI card in the asterisk box and not a seperate Cisco gateway (expensive). HOWEVER, Japan has this INS64 protocol for their BRI lines and im not sure what cards are available that are compatible with asterisk and Japanese BRI (INS64). I know that it is supported by Cisco (like they support Japanese T1 PRI (INS1500)) but it just adds to the cost and is another piece of hardware. I tried searching the archives and only found a few references to INS64 and it didnt sound too promising. I then searched the net and found this Intel/Dialogic board: BRI/80-PCI BRI/PCI Series High-Density ISDN Basic Rate Interface Boards (for details see: http://www.intel.com/network/csp/products/7007web.htm) It seems to support INS64 but appears to only have windows drivers. Has anybody used this cards with asterisk? is it possible? or even likely that it would be supported by any of the linux ISDN drivers? I also noticed some other mentions of 'ISDN protocol converters' What are these specifically? (im guessing they convert between US BRI standards and INS64), how much are they? where do I get one? Has anybody out there got an asterisk system running with INS64 connections to their box? If so could you please let me know how you are doing it, else can anybody offer any information as to where I should start to look for more informaion this topic? I really appreciate the help. cheers, Mick Hastings ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation sponsored by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Hi Nabeel, I also wrote a siliar script using the same tools, I found I still had a few problems with it (Im also a terrible programmer) and dont use it anymore. However, on a windows system you can try the following 2 programs and get integration with outlook and/or cut and paste dialing.

[Asterisk-Users] external access to voicemail?
Hi all, I currently have a setup where my users dial in to a dedicated DID that sends them to VoiceMailMain(). this works fine except for the fact that nobody can remember the number! (they already have to remember the main number, their personal number, fax number and mobile number) What I would like to setup is a way of people checking there own voicemail by dialing there normal extension DID, waiting for it to go to VoiceMail() and then keying in a secret code (or maybe just * as they are required to enter a password later anyway) that switches them to VoiceMailMain() for checking their messages. Has anyone already done this? I know it is quite common on home answering machines. I guess its just a matter of checking for DTMF whilst playing back the unavailable message or something? Can this be done without being integrated into the VoiceMail() code? cheers for all the help, Mick ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
