Re: [asterisk-users] TDM410 PTSN line setup with 1 analog phone
Thanks Lyle, Sorry to sound so much like a newb but in asterisk I am. I was initially trying to do things by hand in the extensions.conf file and had no luck. I then got from SVN checkout asterisk-gui and used it to simply try and get things started, and created a trunk, users, incoming rule, etc. from the gui and finally got dial tone, and can dial out, but I haven't got the analog phone ringing yet. I will have more targeted questions in the near future. It is just hard to find google help for analog answers. Most deal with SIP (which is my next step once I have the analog lines working).

Re: [asterisk-users] TDM410 PTSN line setup with 1 analog phone
I have not use a TDM4xx card for a while, but I remember that in order for ringing to work, you had to plug in an extra molex connector into the card to supply power to the ringing generator portion. If you forgot to do that... Lyle BTW, I know about being a noobie. I was there once myself and still am there every day learning and working with new stuff.

Re: [asterisk-users] TDM410 PTSN line setup with 1 analog phone
Kevin, Thanks for the tip, the answer is yes, (I forgot I copy the first message in into the body below,) but I have read a lot in the http://cdn.oreilly.com/books/9780596510480.pdf and http://ofps.oreilly.com/titles/9780596517342/asterisk-Install.html pages. I was just wanting to get the very basic analog config working prior to jumping into SIP and other higher level things, and that is where I was having a stumbling block.

Re: [asterisk-users] TDM410 PTSN line setup with 1 analog phone
Yes, I have connected that, and the pci card has the lights on. I can now lift the receiver on the analog phone get dial tone and dial out. Next I need to get the phone to ring when called. Off to do more research. Thanks for your help.
