TE110P not coming up [SOLVED]

I have a TE110P installed in a Gentoo Linux server along with a TDM400 (2x FXS & 2x FXO). So far the analogue ports seem to be fine. But I’m having a problem with the digital interface.

My logs show the card has been found:

Running ztcfg -vv shows everything seem to be fine too:

/etc/zaptel.conf looks as follows:

…and the zapata.conf file contains:

The problem is that connecting to my voice switch I get no lights on the TE110P card. My switch reports loss of framing at layer 1.

Checking zztool shows a red alarm, but IRQs are fine:

Current Alarms: Red Alarm x x Sync Source: Internally clocked x x IRQ Misses: 0 x x Bipolar Viol: 0 x x Tx/Rx Levels: 0/ 0 x x Total/Conf/Act: 31/ 31/ 0 x x 1111111111222222222333 lqqqqqqk x x 1234567890123456789012345789012 x Back x x x TxA ------------------------------- mqqqqqqj x x TxB ------------------------------- x x TxC ------------------------------- x x TxD ------------------------------- x x lqqqqqqk x x RxA ------------------------------- x Loop x x x RxB ------------------------------- mqqqqqqj x x RxC ------------------------------- x x RxD -------------------------------
Do I have to tell the TE110P card to come online somehow or am I missing something in the config here??

Make your span for the T1, span 2 and not 1. Then change your bchannels to 32-46,48-62 and your dchannel to 47. Make the correct changes to zapata.conf also.

Made the config changes, but that fails on ztcfg -vv:

Do you have your card set in E1 mode with the jumpers?

Yes, it’s been changed to E1 prior to install.

Try using a loopback plug and see if your alarms clear in zttool

Took and RJ45 plug and looped pins 1&4 and 2&5. Inserted into card and zttool shows red alarm. No change.

Still no LED lighting up on the back of the card either.

Sounds like you may have a bad card. I would remove the TDM400 and try it with just the T1 card and if it still doesnt green up call digium

Also check if the card is taking interrupts.

cat /proc/interrupts

Look at the row with the wct4xxp driver and you see the big number incrementing about 1000/second

Also make sure that you have it in the correct PCI slot, 3.3V and not a 5V slot. I had a similar problem on one of my boxes and I had to disable the onboard NIC and slot in a PCI NIC card.

When you boot up the machince is it detectecting the TE110P and asking to configure it?

[quote=“angler”]Also check if the card is taking interrupts.

cat /proc/interrupts

ipabx ~ # cat /proc/interrupts | grep wc 7: 247956139 XT-PIC wctdm, wcte11xp

Is incrementing…although am I seeing correctly that both cards are on IRQ 7??

Will de-rack the box and try that.

No, just boots up, finds the card and starts it.

Yes both cards are on that IRQ. If you cun the cat command twice over with a second pause or so between them, you should that it roughly increased by 2000

Connected E1 card to another circuit and the line came up. Moved back to the old circuit…and then line came up.

Wierd.

But solved.
