FXSTEST(8) System Manager's Manuals: Asterisk FXSTEST(8)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
SEE ALSO dahdi_tool(8), dahdi_cfg(8), dahdi_monitor(8), asterisk(8).
BUGS
Does not allow testing channels beyond 249. Should support opening channels through /dev/dahdi/channel .

dahdi_scan -- Print Configuration of DAHDI Spans
SYNOPSIS
dahdi_scan [spans]
DESCRIPTION
dahdi_scan prints information about DAHDI spans in the system. For analog spans it also provides a list of channels.
By default it prints information about all the spans in the system. However if parameters are provided, they will be considered to be a
list of span numbers and information will be printed for them.
Output is printed to the standard output. The format is that of an Asterisk configuration file (similar to a "ini" configuration file),
where the name of the section is the number of the span. Note that the specifically for analog spans some keys may appear more than once,
and hence you can not use a parser for an "ini" format and assume you have a dictionary.
EXAMPLES
Printing information for spans 1, 2 and 4:
dahdi_scan 1 2 4
And to print all the spans:
dahdi_scan
Information about a certain analog span:
[5]
active=yes
alarms=OK
description=Xorcom XPD #00/10: FXS
name=XBUS-00/XPD-10
manufacturer=Xorcom Inc.
devicetype=Astribank: Unit 1 Subunit 0: FXS
location=usb-0000:00:03.3-4
basechan=125
totchans=8
irq=0
type=analog
port=125,FXS
port=126,FXS
port=127,FXS
port=128,FXS
port=129,FXS
port=130,FXS
port=131,FXS
port=132,FXS
And an example of a digital span:
[1]
active=yes
alarms=RED
description=T2XXP (PCI) Card 0 Span 1
name=TE2/0/1
manufacturer=Digium
devicetype=Wildcard TE205P (4th Gen)
location=Board ID Switch 0
basechan=1
totchans=24
irq=193
type=digital-T1
syncsrc=0
lbo=0 db (CSU)/0-133 feet (DSX-1)
coding_opts=B8ZS,AMI
framing_opts=ESF,D4
coding=B8ZS
framing=ESF
The "type" field may contain: "analog", "digital-T1", "digital-E1", "digital-J1" or "digital-BRI".
FILES
Requires read access to /dev/dahdi/ctl .
SEE ALSO dahdi_cfg(8), asterisk(8).
BUGS
The program still does not do everything described in the man page.
It also assumes that spans don't skip channel numbers, and that their channel numbers are "running". This is anyway almost always the case.
And always the case in a normal boot process.
