That would be a valid configuration, and yes yellow is an option for setting a yellow alarm when no channels are open.

I've always found the following wording (from the sample file) confusing, not clear about whether "this" and "this span" referred to the span connection on the card, or the span itself: # The timing parameter determines the selection of primary, secondary, and # so on sync sources. If this span should be considered a primary sync # source, then give it a value of "1". For a secondary, use "2", and so on. # To not use this as a sync source, just use "0" So just to clarify some more, I assume if you're using a 4-span card like a TE410P, you would have something like this (in a T1 environment with all connected to a telco switch): span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs,yellow (primary time source) span=2,2,0,esf,b8zs,yellow (secondary time source) span=3,0,0,esf,b8zs,yellow span=4,0,0,esf,b8zs,yellow Do you agree with this? (the "yellow" is an optional parameter) Cheers Scott Stingel www.evtmedia.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bisker, Scott (7805) Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2004 4:59 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] T100P / ZAP / PRI errors In laymans terms. To use your telco's T-1 as the timing source .... span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs,yelllow To use the internal clock of the card you would use (I'm pretty sure that this would only be used for channel banks, or connections to other PBX hardware. I don't think a telco is going to use your PBX as a timing source) span=1,0.0,esf,b8zs,yellow If you have multiple telco connections on multiple spans you would have something like this span=1,2,0,esf,b8zs,yellow (secondary time source) span=2,1,0,esf,b8zs,yellow (primary time source) span=3,0,0,esf,b8zs,yellow (provide the time source, i.e. channel bank) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 12, 2004 9:39 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] T100P / ZAP / PRI errors Now you've got me utterly confused ... So, in layman's terms, if I connect a T100P to a circuit provided by the Telco, and the Telco says that they will provide timing, I have to put WHAT? span=1,0,0,esf,b8zs,yellow this means '0' this span is not a sync source, i.e. the Telco will provide my 8kHz. Could one use '2' with impunity (span=1,2,0,...)? I am still not clear under which circumstances one should use '0' versus '2'.
