pattest(8)

NAME
pattest — Tests a Pattern for a DAHDI Clear Channel Test

SYNOPSIS
pattest dahdi-device

DESCRIPTION
pattest Receives test data from a DAHDI channel and checks if it matches the test pattern. The channel should be of CLEAR signalling (e.g: B channel of a PRI line). patgen(8) is used to generate the data at the other side. pattest Must be able to read from the channel. Hence this cannot be used for a channel used by Asterisk. The pattern is a simple series of values from 0 to 255. Hence it takes at most one sample to get in sync with the other side. If there is no output, all is well. Output is an error message.

OPTIONS
dahdi-device
    A DAHDI device file.

EXAMPLE
  pattest /dev/dahdi/5

BUGS
Will not work with channels whose number > 249 as they don't have device files. For a simple workaround, see dahdi_diag.c . Gives way too many errors when does not get any input.

SEE ALSO
patgen(8), dahdi_cfg(8), asterisk(8).
