NAME

fxstest - Simple tests for DAHDI FXS adapters

SYNOPSIS

fxstest /dev/dahdi/N comand
 

DESCRIPTION

fxstest can be used to issue one of a number simple tests to FXS adapters (analog adapters intended to connect phones).
 

OPTIONS

All of those tests operate on a single dahdi channel which has to be an FXS port, and must not be in use by Asterisk or any other program.
 
The command has two mandatory parameters. The first parameter is the device file to operate on. It is typically /dev/dahdi/NN , a device file under /dev/dahdi .
 
The second parameter is the name of the command to run on that channel:
 
stats
Reports voltages
 
regdump
Dumps ProSLIC registers
 
tones
Plays a series of tones
 
polarity
Requests channel to reverse polarity.
 
ring
Rings phone

BUGS

Does not allow testing channels beyond 249. Should support opening channels through /dev/dahdi/channel .
