Contiguous timeslots on QSIG line

Issue:

By default, when using the QSIG protocol, bearer channel time slots on Dialogic® DM3 and JCT Boards are numbered from 1 to 15 and 17 to 31, with Channel 16 is reserved for signaling. However, some QSIG PBXs use a 'logical' mapping, which ignores the signaling channel and thus expects B channels 1-30. This can cause problems, as DM3/JCT boards’ QSIG stacks will reject any calls with the channel identification information element set to 16, as they assume that channel 16 is reserved for signaling data. In response, you can specify that the bearer channel time slots on the DM3 and JCT boards use a sequentially-ordered logical channel numbering scheme, from 1 to 30.

Solution:

For Dialogic® DM3 Boards

Requires a minimum of Dialogic System Release 6.0 Software (SR6.0) SU87, and then a set parameter of 0x26 CCS_ALTQSIGCHANMAP_FLAG (Alternate QSIG Channel Mapping) equal to 1 in the [CCS.x] section of the .config file.

This is documented in the Release Update for SR6.0 which can be downloaded from 
http://www.dialogic.com/~/media/manuals/sr60winpci/release_update.pdf


For Dialogic® JCT boards
Modify the QNT.prm (Network Side) or QTE.prm (User Side) file:  

;--- ISDN feature list extension 
;--- this parameter uses bit masks 
; 
;--- 01H = not used 
;--- 02H = SINGAPORE SWITCH, disable SETUP_ACK, directly send CALL_PROCEEDING 
;--- 04H = Send first response from Firmware in case of HOST controlled CALL_PROCEEDING 
; using cc_CallAck() for CTR4 only. 
;--- 08H = Enable logical channel mapping (1-30), valid for QSIG protocols only 
;--- 10H = not used 
;--- 20H = not used 
;--- 40H = not used 
;--- 80H = not used 
; 
;--- The default value is 00H. 
;0029 00

 such to setting 0029 08 will enable logical channel mapping.

Then select this prm file in DCM on the Misc tab of the board.
