Hardware configuration illustration
The E1 card hardware illustration as the following:
Set the E1 mode: (JP7)
please jump the jumper wire turn to left in JP7
Set the NT/TE mode: (JP6)
Set the TE mode, please jump the jumper wire(JP6) to the right and turn off the SW1.
Set the NT mode, please jump the jumper wire(JP6) to the left setting NT mode, and SW1(1: off, 2:
on; or 1: on, 2: off ); Then, the NT mode can connect to the TE mode.
Please plug the through line into the E1 port, and connect the E1 cards each other.
If your server exist the following error, it is the SW1 set error
hfcmulti_rx: CRC-error
hfcmulti_rx: CRC-error
For example, you can set the two cards SW2(1:on, 2:off ; or 1:off, 2:on).
Install the asterisk and mISDN
1．Check the PCI messages
Use the command: "lspci -vv" to check the card messages

2．Install asterisk and mISDN packages
If you use the Trixbox2.8.0.6, you just need to jump this step and go to "software configure" steps.
If you use the Centos5.6, you need do the following steps.
1. To install asterisk and mISDN in Centos OS, users should install the following prerequisite
packages:
bison bison-devel zlib zlib-devel openssl openssl-devel gnutls-devel flex gcc gcc-c++
Please use the command: "rpm -q package" to check the RPM package in your server.
Please use the yum install command to install the packages above.
2. Download asterisk,mISDN and mISDNuser
[root@localhost src]#
wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases/asterisk-xx
[root@localhost src]# wget http://www.misdn.org/downloads/mISDN.tar.gz
[root@localhost src]# wget http://www.misdn.org/downloads/mISDNuser.tar.gz
3. Install asterisk,mISDN and mISDNuser
Install mISDN
[root@localhost src]# tar -xvzf mISDN.tar.gz
[root@localhost src]# cd mISDN-1_1_9.1/
[root@localhost mISDN-1_1_9.1]# make
[root@localhost mISDN-1_1_9.1]# make install
Install mISDNuser
[root@localhost src]# tar -xvzf mISDNuser.tar.gz
2)
[root@localhost src]# cd mISDNuser-1_1_9.1/
3)
[root@localhost mISDNuser-1_1_9.1]# make
4)
[root@localhost mISDNuser-1_1_9.1]# make install
Install asterisk
1)
[root@localhost src]# tar -xvzf asterisk-1.4.29.tar.gz
2)
[root@localhost src]# cd asterisk-1.4.29
3)
[root@localhost asterisk-1.4.29]# ./configure
4)
[root@localhost asterisk-1.4.29]# make
5)
[root@localhost asterisk-1.4.29]# make install
6)
[root@localhost asterisk-1.4.29]# make samples
Software configure
1．Add some commands to blacklist file
Please add the following lines in the end of file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
blacklist hisax
blacklist hisax_fcpcipnp
blacklist hisax_isac
blacklist crc_ccitt
blacklist isdn
blacklist slhc
blacklist capi
blacklist capifs
blacklist kernelcapi
blacklist kernel_capi
blacklist avmfritz
blacklist hfc4s8s_l1
2．Check the card's IRQ and modify the configure files
1) Please use the command: "cat /proc/interrupts" to check the card's IRQ messages.
[root@localhost modprobe.d]# cat /proc/interrupts

Use the command: "misdn-init scan" to find the card.
[root@localhost ~]# misdn-init scan
[OK] found the following devices:
card=1,0x1
[ii] run "/usr/sbin/misdn-init config" to store this information to /etc/misdn-init.conf
3) Configure the card by using the command: "misdn-init config"
[root@localhost ~]# misdn-init config
[OK] /etc/misdn-init.conf already present. backing it up to /etc/misdn-init.conf.save
[OK] /etc/misdn-init.conf created. It's now safe to run "/usr/sbin/misdn-init start"
[ii] make your port (1) available in asterisk by editing "/etc/asterisk/misdn.conf"
4) Modify the AX1E NT/TE mode
The port of AX-1E works in TE mode by default setting, customer can change it to work in NT
mode by editing file /etc/misdn-init.conf, find one line "te_ptmp=1", then change it to
"nt_ptmp=1", after this, please run misdn-init restart to make the setting effect.
Please modify the misdn-init.conf configure file as the following:
[root@localhost ~]# vi /etc/misdn-init.conf
vi /etc/misdn-init.conf
card=1,0x1
cards=1,0x1,alaw,dtmf
# Card Settings
#
#
# Syntax: card=<number>,<type>[,<option>...]
#
# Port settings
# <number> count your cards beginning with 1
# <type> either 0x1,0x4 or 0x8 for your hfcmulti hardware,
#
#
or the name of your card driver module.
# <option> ulaw
- uLaw (instead of aLaw)
# Syntax: <port_type>=<port_number>[,<port_number>...]
#
dtmf
- enable DTMF detection on all B-channels
#
#
<port_type>
te_ptp
te_ptmp=1
- TE-Mode,
PTP
Most of terminals
use with
the TE mode. It set the port mode: ptmp. Some equipments
use ptp mode.
TE-Mode,
PTMP
1: it's the port number.
#
te_ptmp
#
te_capi_ptp
- TE-Mode (capi), PTP
#
dtmfthreshold=100
We've added- aTE-Mode
configurable
dtmfthreshold,
the default is 100, it can have values
te_capi_ptmp
(capi),
PTMP
between 20 and 500. It needs to be changed either by giving the module parametern
nt_ptp
- NT-Mode,
PTP
dtmfthreshold_option
to the
mISDN_dsp modul, or simply by setting the value
#
nt_ptmp
#
#
<port_number>
#
te_ptmp=1
5)
- NT-Mode, PTMP
port that should
be considered
vi /etc/asterisk/misdn.conf
hdlc=no
; change this to yes, if you want to bridge a mISDN data channel to
; another channel type or to an application.
Disable all the default ports
Please disable all the default ports, and add the following paragraph at the end of the file.
[root@localhost ~]# vi /etc/asterisk/misdn-init.conf
[intern]
; define your ports, e.g. 1,2 (depends on mISDN-driver loading order)
;ports=1,2
; context where to go to when incoming Call on one of the above ports
context=Intern
[internPP]
;
; adding the postfix 'ptp' to a port number is obsolete now, chan_misdn
; parses /etc/misdn-init.conf and sets the ptp mode to the corresponding
; configs. For backwards compatibility you can still set ptp here.
;
;ports=3
[first_extern]
; again port defs
;ports=4
[second_extern]
;ports=5
context=Extern2
callerid=15
msns=102,144,101,104
(Add the ports to outgoing dialplan, then the incoming call can load to your server. )
[from-internal]
ports=1
context=from-internal
(Add the ports to incoming dialplan, then your local extension can dial out. )
[from-pstn]
ports=1
context=from-pstn
If it is more than one port in your card, Please find the te_ptmp=1,2,3,4 line, and change it into the
following two lines:
te_ptmp=2,3,4
nt_ptmp=1
6) Start the misdn
Start the misdn using the command: "misdn-init start", and it will create device node: /dev/mISDN
[root@localhost ~]# misdn-init start
----------------------------------------Loading module(s) for your misdn-cards:
----------------------------------------/sbin/modprobe --ignore-install hfcmulti type=0x1 protocol=0x2 layermask=0xf poll=128 debug=0
/sbin/modprobe mISDN_dsp debug=0x0 options=0 poll=128 dtmfthreshold=100
[i] creating device node: /dev/mISDN
If the card driver has been loaded correctly, two of the leds are green, and the other two of the
leds are red.
7)
Check the ports information using the command: "misdnportinfo"
[root@localhost ~]# misdnportinfo
Port 1: TE-mode PRI E1 interface line (for phone lines)
-> Interface is Poin-To-Point.
-> Protocol: DSS1 (Euro ISDN)
-> childcnt: 30
--------
mISDN_close: fid(3) isize(131072) inbuf(0x8b33060) irp(0x8b33060) iend(0x8b33060)
8) Add "misdn-init start" before "/usr/sbin/amportalstart" in Trixbox. And you can just add it in
Centos.
[root@localhost ~]# vi /etc/rc.d/rc.local
touch /var/lock/subsys/local
misdn-init start
9) You can use the command: "misdn show stacks" to check the line status. the correct output
will like the follow:
*CLI> misdn show stacks
BEGIN STACK_LIST:
* Port 1 Type TE Prot. PTP L2Link DOWN L1Link: DOWN Blocked:0
Debug:0
If you link the through line together with the cards, you will get the following result.
*CLI> misdn show stacks
BEGIN STACK_LIST:
* Port 1 Type TE Prot. PTP L2Link UP L1Link: UP Blocked:0 Debug:0
Or
localhost*CLI> misdn show stacks
BEGIN STACK_LIST:
* Port 1 Type TE Prot. PTP L2Link DOWN L1Link:UP Blocked:0 Debug:0
localhost*CLI>
10) Add the dialplan for your PBX
If you would like to add the dialplan manually, you can do it as the following simple examples.
[root@localhost asterisk]# vi /etc/asterisk/extension.conf
[from-internal]
exten=>900,1,dial(misdn/1/900)
exten=>900,n,hangup()
exten=>_2.,1,dial(misdn/1/${EXTEN:1})
exten=>_2.,n,hangup()
[from-pstn]
exten=>903,1,dial(sip/903)
exten=>903,n,hangup()
