Hi there dear users and dear developers of Asterisk!
I've got a maybe strange idea, let's see if you laugh or think it's reasonable J I'm using Asterisk with Digium TDM800P cards with 24 lines (as an answering machine). Each analog line can be reached through a phonenumber, since they are each connected to my telephone provider. Yes expensive I know J The challenge: I'd like to somehow verify that my 1) TDM800P cards and 2) the analog lines, and 3) my operator is alive and working, and I have an Idea which I wonder if will/could work. My first idea was to ask the zap-driver if it could detect if the line was ok, but no function existed to do that, what I could find. Anyone knows about one? My second idea, was to try calling simply, to know if things were ok. But, I couldn't just call any number, I had to know the number was in use, and not disturbing anyone. So, I called myself, or I called another of my phonelines. So, I'd like to use the asterisk manager interface in java to originate a call from one ZAP-channel, calling out to my telephone provider, And then they will direct the call back to my, but into another ZAP-channel (since I'm calling that channel's number). So: I'm making ZAP/1 calling out to no 323121321 -> telephone company, Ok: 323121321 belongs to this guy -> redirecting me to my ZAP/2 channel, which answers the call. Then I have a connection, and ZAP/2 will answer and do some DTMF. My first ZAP/1 is run through my java program, and I'd like to listen for certain DTMF-tones, to know I have a working circuit. The goal for all of this, is to verify things are working, so my provider is not down, or one of my ZAP-lines are dead. So far, I've tried calling and got some half-success, but not sure what is going on doing all the right way. For ex: why am I calling with Zap1, to Zap 3, and then Zap 7 is answering? 3 channels used for one outgoing and one incoming call? Something must be very wrong J Please educate me, dear experts.
