RE: [asterisk-users] TDM2400 Hardware Echo Cancel[Spam score: 8%][Scanned]
That's interesting, as I've still not managed to completely resolve the problem. I've managed to reduce it by upgrading to Zaptel-1.4 and rerunning fxotune, but there is still a distinct crackle, which is more noticeable on calls to mobiles. I am yet to try removing the hardware echo module, but as you say this is not ideal for a production system. If you don't mind me asking, what alternative hardware are you now using? Is it a similar device that supports up to 24 analogue lines?

Re: [asterisk-users] TDM2400 Hardware Echo Cancel
Had the exact same issue with the hardware canceller. If I set echocancel=no then the problem goes away.

Hi Echo cancel almost works, but the users hear what they describe as a 'crackle' coming back when they talk. Just a thought, but check that your gain levels are not too high?

RE : [asterisk-users] TDM2400 Hardware Echo Cancel
Check without the echocan module (remove it) if any 'crackle is listen again. If yes, the echocan is not faulty. If yes, check another echocan module temporary.

[asterisk-users] TDM2400 Hardware Echo Cancel (Adam Sharples)
Hi Adam, I have the same problem. Are you sure is an echo canceller problem? Following advices from this list I discovered that I had an IRQ shared. Untill now I didn't try the new setup but I really hope that this was the problem. If you manage to solve the problem in any way please give me advise. Ciao You can make sure the card is sitting on it's own IRQ - use the command cat /proc/interrupts You can also check that the card isn't losing interrupts by running the zttest proram: /sbin/zttest There's more on interrupts here: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+PCI+bus+Troubleshooting http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+PCI+bus+Troubleshooting It's aimes at the TDM400P card, but I'd be surprised if the 2400P is that much different (but someone please correct me if it is!) lspci -vb ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

No. Hardware echo cancelers on Digium cards are either 'on' or 'off', there are no tuning parameters. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
