Re: X100P mod or USB relay box, RE: [Asterisk-Users] Line Override Device
The Voicetronix Openline6 and Openline12 cards have the functionality you want built in. You can configure (jumpers) which ports are FXO and which are FXS (in groups of 2 IIRC) and 1st FXO goes to 1st FXS etc. in case of power failure. Apparently these cards work with Asterisk (chan_vpb). I think cost is AU$1500 and AU$3000 for 6 and 12. cheers, Wooody On Mon, Jul 14, 2003 at 02:17:59PM -0400, Reed Wade wrote: > > > At 12:57 PM 7/14/2003 -0500, you wrote: > >This makes me think that you could take this a step further too and > >incorporate an external power supply and a relay that could interupt > >mains power so that you could power cycle the PC if the watchdog had > >power to operate and the PC wasn't responding or generating pings. > > > i like that > > -reed > > > > ___ > Asterisk-Users mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users -- Woody ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

We get a relatively small number of calls but any one of them could be worth a large stack of cash for our business. A stinky phone system can make us look bad. The main reason I'm looking at Asterisk is to improve the reliability and control over our phone system. All the other great things it provides really are secondary for the folks who pay my salary. Only if you aren't pulling power from the USB bus. There isn't much there. There may be just enough depending on how many relays are needed, but it would be too close. I agree, better off not trying to get power from there. I do like the idea of some kind of watchdog functionality. Simply having power isn't sufficient to trust that a call is getting routed. -reed ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
