Yes you can use each of the lines independently but that would be missing part of the power of a PBX over that of a key system. (Key system is where you select which line you want to use before initiating the call. A PBX does the search/picking of the line for you).
You can access the individual ports as DAHDI/1 or DAHDI/2, etc. but you can get into complex logic of how you pick line 1 over line 2 and how to tell if the selected line is busy, what to do when it is, etc. As opposed to them also being in the group G0 meaning calls to DAHDI/G0 will pick the first available line. This makes it much easier for the user when the switch does the work for you. (Unless of course the different lines have different calling or pricing rules). If that is the case then you should group them according to such policies but still arrange them in groups. - dbc. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: September-28-10 9:55 PM To: garry liu Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [on-asterisk] how to use the second channel of my sangoma B600 card Thanks a lot for your reply. Does this mean I can't pick which of the four fxo lines to make outbound calls? That is kind of disappointing b/c I was planing to have two bell lines and give user ability to choose which line to go out.

Only way is to make outbound calls through FXOs. Check your dial plan.
