NAME¶
vdaaerl - Measure the echo-return loss on Voicetronix FXO telephony modules
SYNOPSIS¶
vdaaerl [
options]
DESCRIPTION¶
The
vdaaerl utility tests the echo-return from a telephone line connected
to a Voicetronix FXO module, such as those used on the OpenPCI range of cards.
It can scan all available impedance values to find the best match for a
particular line.
It will wait for an incoming call on the port under test. The calling handset
should have the
microphone well muted for the duration of the test.
A series of tones will be played down the line to determine the ERL in several
parts of the audio spectrum. You should avoid creating any other noise on the
line while this test is running, or the results may be skewed.
If no
--impedance is specified, and the
--scan option is not used,
then the default impedance value (based on the port's country selection) will
be used.
OPTIONS¶
The following options are available:
- --help, -?
- Show summary of options.
- --card number
- Explicitly select the card to test. Default is card 0.
- --port number
- Explicitly select the port to test. Default is port 0 of
the card being tested.
- --impedance number
- Test a particular impedance setting [0 - 15].
- --scan
- Test all available impedances.
- --playgain db
- Set the hardware play gain. Values may range from -12.0 to
12.0.
- --recgain db
- Set the hardware record gain. Values may range from -12.0
to 12.0.
