RE: [asterisk-users] TDM2400 Hardware Echo Cancel[Spam score: 8%][Scanned]

2007-01-25 Thread Adam Sharples
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?

I had the exact same problem, removing the hardware echo fix the problem but
this is not a solution for a production system. I'm now using another brand
of hardware.

I have been having the same problems since installing a TDM2400 with
hardware echo canceller.  The best way to describe the sound is a
background crackle or hiss that just can't be filtered out.
Increasing the RX gain just makes the problem worse.
SIP to SIP calls are flawless.

An acquaintance told me the analog line level is too low, but when
plugging a regular phone into the line, the signal is plenty loud
enough.
I am curious if anyone else had similar issues with the TDM2400 card and
if they have resolved it.

 Subject: [asterisk-users] TDM2400 Hardware Echo Cancel
 
 Good Day List,
 
 I'm having some issues with echo cancel on my Asterisk box, and have
 done
 extensive reading and have gained some useful pointers from this list
 but have a couple of hopefully fairly simple questions.
 The Asterisk box is connected via 20 FXO ports on a TDM2400 with the
 Hardware echo cancel module.  Echo cancel almost works, but the users
 hear
 what they describe as a 'crackle' coming back when they talk.
 
 I want to tune to echo canceller, but am unsure if any of the options
 provided have any effect on the hardware module.  Do the settings such
 as
 echocancel and echotraining in Zapata.conf affect the hardware module?
 
 Would I be better removing the hardware module and tuning the software
 echo
 canceller?
 
 The asterisk box is currently running 1.2.13, with zaptel 1.2.  Would
 you
 advise upgrading to the newer Zaptel drivers?  I don't want to upgrade
 Asterisk itself just yet.
 
 Any help or pointers to documentation regarding the hardware echo
cancel
 module would be greatly appreciated,
 
 
 Thanks,
 
 
 
 Adam Sharples

Had the exact same issue with the hardware canceller. If I set echocancel=no 
then the problem goes away.
Very weird that the static only happens on our side and we only hear it.

Just a thought, but check that your gain levels are not too high?

2007-01-18 Thread f6hqz-m
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.

No. Hardware echo cancelers on Digium cards are either 'on' or 'off',
there are no tuning parameters.
