Runing a ztcfg -vvvv shows that all the channels configure properly.
I’ve also added this to my /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf
group = 1
channel => 1-23
channel => 26-48
When I start asterisk, it exits stating something about unable to configure the additional channels i’ve added “26-48”, am I missing something here? How should I begin to trouble-shoot this?
Thanks for that. I actually figured it out by playing around with it some more, and a bit of help from the phone company.
This is for those of you who encounter a similar problem/question
The first line we have coming in is a T-1 PRI line - which has a Delta channel and 23 B channels… I left that configuration alone.
The second line is actually a Full 24 channel T-1 without a Delta channel, this requires a e&m wink start – I configured this as a wink start in /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf and configured all 24 channels. Inside /etc/zaptel.conf I have it set as all bchans and it works perfectly!
Thanks for your help on this guys, if anyone has a question about a system with 2 digium cards in it please let me know.

The file /etc/zaptel.conf should not have ‘bchan=25-48’ and I’m surprised this is working. If it’s E&M signaling(with wink start) for this T1 you would need to use ‘e&m=25-48’ in /etc/zaptel.conf.

Apologies for that, it is e&m=25-48
Thanks for that correction don’t want to lead anyone in the wrong direction.
Also this is not the solution for EVERY person with 2 ports, only for those with the same situation you have (one PRI and one E&M). The conf files you posted “could” have been correct if thats the way the T1’s were provisioned.
