TDM04B Installation Problem

Hi,

I have got a Digium TDM04B card (4 FXO modules installed) and i’m having problems getting it working.

ztcfg reports the following:

asterisk:~# ztcfg -vv

Zaptel Configuration
======================


Channel map:

Channel 01: FXS Kewlstart (Default) (Slaves: 01)
Channel 02: FXS Kewlstart (Default) (Slaves: 02)
Channel 03: FXS Kewlstart (Default) (Slaves: 03)
Channel 04: FXS Kewlstart (Default) (Slaves: 04)

4 channels configured.

ZT_CHANCONFIG failed on channel 1: No such device or address (6)

When I do: modprobe zaptel I get the following in the logs:

Sep 27 15:24:50 asterisk kernel: Zapata Telephony Interface Registered on major 196
Sep 27 15:24:50 asterisk kernel: Zaptel Version: 1.2.9.1 Echo Canceller: KB1

and when I do modprobe wctdm I get the following:

Sep 27 15:25:39 asterisk kernel: ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:01:01.0[A] -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 217

Sep 27 15:25:40 asterisk kernel: wctdm: probe of 0000:01:01.0 failed with error -5

lspci is showing the following:

0000:01:01.0 Communication controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc. Tiger3XX Modem/ISDN interface
        Subsystem: Unknown device b119:0003
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 217

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Make sure all the FXO modules are properly seated on the main card.

Hi,

I just took each of them out and made sure they are all hard in - I also changed to a different PCI slot while I was there.

Still the same error though - any other ideas?

Thanks

Ian

i would fire an email off to support@digium.com … and suspect a faulty board. modules fail, but for all 4 not to be seen !!

I had a similar problem; it was resolved after I dismantled the riser daughter board from the mainboard, reassembled, replaced PCI card and restarted. Card was suddenly found and modules registered correctly. Since then, no problems.

Hi Ian

Is this in a Slot or a riser card ? How new is the hardware and what type of slot is it?

Could you post the zaptel.conf and the zapata.conf

Hi Ian,

It’s a PCI card with 4 red modules in. I think the hardware revision was J but I can’t check as I tried it in a 2nd machine and it didn’t work in there either so i’ve packaged it to send back for a replacement.

zaptel.conf is:

fxsks=1-4
loadzone=uk
defaultzone=uk

I have not setup zapata.conf yet as it’s not even loading the wctdm module yet…
