The Definition ofAsterisk is described as follows:
Asterisk is a complete PBX in software. It runs on Linux, BSD, Windows
(emulated) and provides all of the features you would expect from a PBX
and more.Asterisk does voice over IP in four protocols,andcan
interoperate with almost all standard-basedtelephony equipment using
relatively cost-effective hardware. Asterisk provides Voicemail services
with Directory, Call Conferencing, Interactive Voice Response,Call
Queuing. It supports forthree-way calling, caller ID services, ADSI, IAX,
SIP, H323 (as both client and gateway), MGCP (call manager only) and

1.2 What is D410E/DE410E
The DE410E is a D410E with an EC module, and they supportE1, T1
and J1 environments. It is selectable on a per-card orper-port basis. This
feature enables signaling translation between E1 and T1 equipments and
allows inexpensive T1 channel banks to connectwith E1 circuits.
D410E supports industry standard telephony and data protocols,
including Primary Rate ISDN (bothN. American and Standard Euro)
protocolfamilies for voice, PPP, Cisco, HDLC, and Frame Relay data
modes.Both line-side and trunk-side interfaces are supported.
D410E works with Asterisk®, Elastix®, FreeSWITCH™,PBX in a Flash,
trixbox®, Yate™and IPPBX/IVR projects as well as other Open Source
and proprietary PBX, Switch, IVR, and VoIPgateway applications.

Chapter 2 Hardware Setup
There are some points that should be paid attention to when setting up
D410E/DE410E.
2.1 Span type setup
Each DIP switch controls one span configuration for E1 or T1 mode.
Setting DIP1 to ON means SPAN1 will be E1.Setting DIP1 to OFF
means SPAN1 will be T1.
2.2 CardID switch setup
If want to install more than one card of D410E/DE410E in a PC, you
should take care of the card ID switch. There are two pieces of rules you
must obey:
The first card must be set to 0, which is a card that will be initialized
(i.e. installing driver) firstly when the system bootup. And the second
should be set to 1, and so forth.
At most cases,Linux will initialize PCI devices according to their slot
order. The slot nearest to the CPU will be initialized firstly and the far
end slot will be initialized at last. That is to say, the card which is
nearest to the CPUID should be set to 0 if there is more than one
D410E/DE410E on your machine.

2.3 Slot compatibility
D410E/DE410E is compatible with PCI-E ×1 (slot 1) and ×2, ×4, ×8, ×16
slot, except PCIslot; you should confirm your slot type and insert
D410E/DE410E into any type of PCI-E slot as previously described.
64-bit 5.0V PCI slot
64-bit 3.3V PCI slot
32-bit 5.0V PCI slot
PCI-E ×1 slot

2.4 Timing cable
If you have just one card in the system, all channels on that card have
already run under the same clock source, so timing cable is unnecessary.
But if there are more than one card,using timing cable has some
advantages. Before using the clock line, each card works on its own
clock, therefore precision of the clock is limited; each cardwill send
/receive voice data at different speeds.Invoice usage, this small issue can
be omitted, but in data communication such as Fax/Modem, it will cause
big problems.Data loss will cause communication broken or fax broken.

Timing cable will force all cards to work at the same clock source,send
data at the same speed,as a result no data will lost.
If you found J914 (input) and J915 (output) interfaces on the card, it
means the card supports clockline, for details, please refer to HERE.

Chapter 3 Software Installation and Configuration
D410E/DE410E supports DAHDI software driver on Linux. To make full
use of D410E/DE410E, you should download, compile, install and
configure Libpri, DAHDI and Asterisk.
3.1 Download
DAHDI software packages are available on OpenVoxofficial website or
Digium. Some patches should be added while the driver source is from
Digium, therefore, it is recommended that downloading the DAHDI
driver package from OpenVox official website.

D410E/DE410E. If it has been recognized, "communication controller"
will be displayed in the output information like that:

Figure 3 Hardware detection
If D410E/DE410E is not recognized by the system, you have to power off
and take out the card, then try to insert it into another PCI-Eslot.
2. Softwareinstallation
Some dependencies are crucial. If any of them is absent, the software
installation process would not go through successfully. Let’s run "yum
install XX"(XX stands for the dependency’s name) to check the
availability of dependencies.
# yum install bison
# yum install bison-devel
# yum install ncurses
# yum install ncurses-devel
# yum install zlib

D410E/DE410E on DAHDI User Manual
OpenVox Communication Co. LTD. URL: www.openvox.cn

# yum install zlib-devel
# yum install openssl
# yum install openssl-devel
# yum install gnutls-devel
# yum install gcc
# yum install gcc-c++
# yum install libxml2
# yum install libxml2-devel
If there is no kernel-devel sourcein the system, users
should run the following command to install the
kernel-devel to peer current kernel:
# yum install kernel-devel-`uname –r`
While if there is no matched kernel-devel found, you should download
matched RPMpackage to install it, or execute the following command to
updateto the latest and stable kernel version:
# yum install kernel kernel-devel
After installed, please rebootyour machine to apply the new kernel and
install the dependencies. If the dependency has been installed, system
indicates that nothing to do which means you could go to next one
directly. Otherwise, the systemwill keep on installing it.

Among Libpri, DAHDI and Asterisk, let’s install libpri firstly. Please
execute those commands under the directory of /usr/src/ in generally:
# cd libpri-XX
# make
# make install
Change to the directory of dahdi-linux-complete-XX (XX represents
DAHDI version), then perform commands one by one to install DAHDI.
# cd /usr/src/dahdi-linux-complete-XX
# make
# make install
# make config
Caution: If there is something wrong after "make",
please refer to HERE. In the url link, the moderator
introduces you a method how to patch. After patching,
save your changes and exit. Then run "make"again, if successfully done,
it is time for you to install Asterisk.
Please operate those commands to install Asterisk.

D410E/DE410E on DAHDI User Manual
OpenVox Communication Co. LTD. URL: www.openvox.cn
17
# cd asterisk-1.8.5.0
# ./configure
# make
# make install
# make samples
"make samples" will install the standard
sample configuration file in the directory /etc/asterisk. As a
freshman, you should perform "make samples", that is to
say, it is unnecessary to perform "make samples"every time. Because
once performed, it will cover the old sample configuration files you have
installed.
3.3 Configuration
1. Driver loading
After compiling and installing DAHDI and Asterisk, please load the
driver by running:
# modprobe dahdi
# modprobe wct4xxp
# dahdi_genconf

D410E/DE410E on DAHDI User Manual
OpenVox Communication Co. LTD. URL: www.openvox.cn
18
If there is any error, please trace the cause. Until all errors are clear up,
you could execute "dahdi_genconf"again, and then go to the next step.
By running "dahdi_genconf", it will generate /etc/dahdi/system.conf and
etc/asterisk/dahdi-channels.conf automatically. Checking whether the
generated files information agrees with your hardware setup, if not, you
should modify to your specific requirements. Do not forget to confirm
dahdi-channels.conf is included in chan_dahdi.conf,if not, run command:
# echo "#include dahdi-channels.conf" >>
/etc/asterisk/chan_dahdi.conf
A part of system.confwhich is one of the basic channel configuration
files is displayed.

2. Country mode modification
In order to match your country pattern, you need to change parameters
loadzone and defaultzone to your country. For example, your system is in
CHINA, you would like them change to:
loadzone = cn
defaultzone = cn
