RE: [asterisk-users] Sangoma A102 w/ EC module gets intermittent echo/audio artifacts <--followup and resolution
Followup on this issue, it appears that using a single PRI's clock as the master clock avoids clock drift between the PRI's and we get no more artifacts. So, : wanpipe1.conf: TE_CLOCK= NORMAL TE_REF_CLOCK= 0 wanpipe2.conf: TE_CLOCK= MASTER TE_REF_CLOCK= 1 zaptel.conf: span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs span=2,0,0,esf,b8zs -Original Message- From: Michael L.

I am pretty sure that only one span should be the primary timing source. The other span should either be at 0 (not used as a timing source) or set as a secondary timing source. Hope this helps.

Colin Anderson wrote: I've replaced 2XTE110 with an A102 with echo cancellation specifically to deal with echo problems. However, user feedback has indicated to me that on some calls (not a lot, but some) the call is unusable, with audio artifiacts, described by one user, as: "very bad phasing reverb & feedback (from my rock & roll days)". This is quite intermittent, as in most cases, the user says, it's a one-time thing, they hang up, the problem caller calls back, everythings good. It's as if the Sangoma is trying too hard? I personally have not heard this, but I have to trust what the users say. Some ideas I'd like to bounce: 1. tx and rxgains - this card is plugged into an Atlas 550 which seems to run a little hot on the gains. 2. Timing - the card takes it's sync from the Atlas, which in turn syncs from the PRI. Maybe have one port on the card take it's timing from the other port? Don't see how it would be relevant, but hey, that's all I've got. 3. Taps? Does an A102 even care about taps or just echocancel=yes? I have fixed similar problems by reducing the gains. I call it "ECFO" Echo Cancel Freak Out. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
RE: [asterisk-users] Sangoma A102 w/ EC module gets intermittent echo/audio artifacts
I think you are absolutely right. The audio I heard earlier sounds exactly like a timing issue. So: wanpipe1.conf: TE_CLOCK= NORMAL TE_REF_CLOCK= 0 wanpipe2.conf: TE_CLOCK= MASTER TE_REF_CLOCK= 1 zaptel.conf: span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs span=2,0,0,esf,b8zs I'm going to make this change and reload at lunchtime, I'll document it and post it to the list if it works. thanks for the good eye. -Original Message- From: Michael L.

RE: [asterisk-users] Sangoma A102 w/ EC module gets intermittent echo /audio artifacts <---More information
Aha, it just happened to me, so now I can characterize the audio: It basically sounds like it's missing every other sample - fuzzy and distorted.
