I would strongly recommend ESF/B8ZS. If you have a RED alarm that means
the device does not see a line connected to it -- check cabling.

I'm not getting inbound or outbound calls to work. (Inbound caller gets
line busy tone.)



SETTINGS FROM MITEL:

I built a Crossover cable and connected it like this:

PSTN--T1--ASTRISK--T1--OLD MITEL

-Crossover Cable Pin-out:

1 - 4

2 - 5

4 - 1

5 - 2

Mitel Settings:

Line Coding = B8ZS Framing = D4 (T1 Card 9109-021-001-NA)

(My config: span=1,1,0,d4,b8zs & e&m=1-24)



The card is a 24 channel T1 - not a PRI right? (T1 E&M Emulation Trunk:
1)

So does that mean I use E&M with Winkstart?

(signalling=em_w) (is this spelt right?)

(Wink setting is an assumption based upon a setting I saw in
the PBX called wink timer)



Using a Sangoma A104D:

zttool

-GAVE "OK" on PSTN

-Gave "RED" on MITEL

Timing

-Receiving Time from PSTN & Giving to the Mitel



What debugging can I do to get more information?

Eric,
Looks like my Mitel does support ESF; I'll try changing it. One question
before I do. If I change it right now, do you suppose my Telco
automatically adapt?

No, but I'll make a few comments anyway. I'm not sure if they'll help
you at all, but maybe it'll help explain a few things to someone else on
the list.

Is the T1 in alarm? You've first gotta get it out of alarm before you
can make calls on it. Alarms are usually caused by physical
connectivity problems, or problems with framing and/or linecoding.

Hmmmn... D4 and B8ZS together? That's bizarre. Usually people will use
D4 framing and AMI linecoding together, or ESF framing and B8ZS
linecoding. I've never seen anyone uuse B8ZS linecoding with D4
framing.

I've never seen a telco automatically adapt to anything, especially
signaling changes on a T1.

Jared,
Thanks for the help.

There are other T1 trunks (using AMI,D4) going to different departments;
however the trunk line talking to the Telco is what it is.

I do have the ability to change it to ESF, so I will try changing it -
do you suppose my Telco will automaticly adapt if I do? (I'm fairly
confident they support ESF.)

The telco will never change the line coding or framing without a change
request being sent to your account rep.
