I don't know if anyone has done this before (I'm sure it's been
done), but I've not seen a document on it.<br>
<br>
I use the quad port radio cards with app_rpt/asterisk as allstar
nodes and needed to interface a quantar station with them. I've
built the following up to allow some one to build it directly into a
box with a RJ-45 jack, so you only need a patch cable to connect to
the quad port card. Some pictures of my second prototype are up <a
href="http://gallery.keekles.org/v/Radio_stuff/Quantar_PCIradio/">here</a>.<br>
<br>
Additionally I've setup the wildcard tables on the quantar to have a
seperate COS and PL decode output to the quad port card. <br>
There is a final input for alarm status on the station, but Ive not
figured out how to do anything useful with it in app_rpt just yet.<br>
<br>
This is my system.conf for dahdi in this configuration:<br>
<br>
<tt>e&m=1 # This needs to match the number of channels used
in rpt.conf </tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>loadzone = us</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>defaultzone=us</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>exttone=y</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>invertcor=n</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>channels=1 #apply it to port 1 </tt><tt><br>
</tt><br>
I bought a 10' male to male rj-21 cable off ebay, and cut it in
half. It works perfect on the back of quantar. My document shows
the standard color codes used by these cables and how the pairs are
laid out, much more logically than the service manual.<br>
<br>
If anyone has any feedback or ideas send them my way.<br>
<br>
Thanks and 73's<br>
