Configure 2 TDM400P cards?

I cannot find information on this anywhere, google, voip-info, or here.

Im not sure what to do with zapata.conf and zaptel.conf when I have 2 cards installed.

Do i just configure it like normal, but whichever card loads first (viewable by dmesg) i put its settings in the file first?

Says all you have to do to scale up is add additional TDM400P cards but does not explain how. I’ll SWAG that you’ll just go on with 5,6,7,8 after you figure out which card loads first. I don’t see anything in the 50-udev.rules zaptel section that would lead me to think the boilerplate device section would not work with 2 cards.

I’ll be adding a second TDM400P card to my proof of concept box when I return from the Bootcamp class so I know I’ll be running into this in the near future. If we don’t have an answer before I go to class it will be the first question I ask.

Just out of curiosity where did you obtain your internal power connectors for 2 cards? I had to make mine out of various scavenged connectors and a bit of solder and heat shrink tubing. You would think Digium would offer internal power distribution harnesses for the analog cards.

Yea each additional module is 5,6,7,8 I got the answer this morning and forgot to post back.

Most PSU’s come with way too many of them so it usually easy to find another on the harness to power the cards.
If not digium makes 12v powered devices that can power your card, ill PM you my website as im not sure on the forum rules on that.

but if you put 3 card’s for fresh install?

i thing order is by PCI slots number

PCI one 1 2 3 4

PCI two 5 6 7 8

PCI three 9 10 11 12
