Hardware Installation
At the back of the B700 there are 2x RJ 45 connectors and 1x RJ 11 connector. The 2 RJ-45 connectors are for the BRI ports (each connector supports 2 BRI ports) and the RJ -11 connector is for the 2 analog ports.
A500 BRI Termination resistors to switch between NT and TE modes The A500 comes with termination resistors that have to be disabled (set to OFF) when running in TE mode and enabled (set to ON) when running in NT mode. The resistors corresponding ports 1 and 2 are closest to the PCI base. The ON position is closer to the NT/TE modules. The OFF position is closer to the RJ-45 connectors.

If you are using an FXS module, you will need to connect the external molex power connector.
The Analog connector has two lines in the one connector, the first line is in the inner pair and the second is in the outer pair as shown in the picture below. So if you are making your own cables insure that your are following the diagram below.

Driver Installation
- Untar wanpipe release in arbitrary directory (/usr/src/ is recommended).
#>tar xvfz wanpipe-<version>.tgz #>cd wanpipe-<version>
After untarring WANPIPE®, the wanpipe<version>/ directory will be created.
- Run ./Setup install from the newly created wanpipe-<version> directory
#>./Setup install or #>./Setup install --64bit_4GB (in case X86_64bit & 4GB memory or more) Proceed with installation Select "Y" for each option. Under compilation mode: Select "SMG (BRI) + TDM Voice (Zaptel)" (Option #7). Setup will ask you for location of zaptel sources? [By default Setup will look in /usr/src/zaptel] Zaptel 1.4 -> wanpipe drivers use zaptel supported hwdchan so no patching is needed. Zaptel does not need to be recompiled Zpatel 1.2-> Setup will ask you if you would like to add support for Sangoma HW HDLC DCHAN PRI to Zaptel. "Enable TDMV DCHAN Native HDLC Support & Patch Zaptel ? (y/n)" Select "Y" to Enable HW HDLC on DCHAN PRI in Zaptel. Setup will ask you if you would like to recompile/reinstall Zaptel. "Recompile/reinstall zaptel (recommended) ? (y/n) " Select "Y" to recompile/reinstall Zaptel
- Proceed with Defaults for the rest of the compilation.
- Last step in installation will ask you to configure wanpipe cards for Zaptel
-> Proceed with YES this is your initial installation -> Note wancfg_zaptel will overwrite your zaptel.conf and zapata.conf files and save the originals as zaptel.conf.bak and zapata.conf.bak -> The configuration process continues on Configuration Section If any errors are encountered during the compilation of the utilities, click here for assistance.
Confirm Successful Wanpipe/Zaptel Installation
- Confirm successful Wanpipe/Zaptel installation run:
#>wanrouter hwprobe ------------------------------- | Wanpipe Hardware Probe Info | ------------------------------- 1 . AFT-B700-SH : SLOT=4 : BUS=7 : IRQ=201 : PORT=1 : HWEC=16 : V=34 2 .

AFT-B700-SH : SLOT=4 : BUS=7 : IRQ=201 : PORT=5 : HWEC=16 : V=34 Card Cnt: B700=1 This command will load the wanpipe and zaptel modules and will print out list of all Sangoma hardware installed on the system.
The 4 BRI ports will display ports 1 to 4 and the analog port will display port 5.
B700 Configuration/Operation
1) To configure the device run "wancfg_smg" from the command line.
2) To start the device with Asterisk follow the steps below.
# wanrouter start (to start our drivers)
# smg_ctrl start (to start Sangoma BRI Daemon and Sangoma Media Gateway)
# ztcfg -vvv (to start Zaptel)
# asterisk (to start Asterisk)
# asterisk -r (to login to the Asterisk CLI)
# zap show channels (to see all the zap channels)
3) To stop the device with Asterisk follow the two steps below.
# asterisk -r (to login to the Asterisk CLI)
# stop now (to stop Asterisk)
# smg_ctrl stop (to stop Sangoma BRI Daemon and Sangoma Media Gateway)
# wanrouter stop (to stop our drivers).
