ISDNTELCTL(8) BSD System Manager's Manual ISDNTELCTL(8)
NAME
isdntelctl -- control isdn4bsd telephone sound format conversion
SYNOPSIS
isdntelctl [-c] [-g] [-u unit] [-A] [-U] [-N]
DESCRIPTION
isdntelctl is part of the isdn4bsd package and is used to configure the sound format conversion facilities of the /dev/isdntel interfaces.
The following options are available:
-c Clear the telephone input queue.
-g Get the sound format currently in use.
-u Set the /dev/isdntel unit number. The default value is zero to access device /dev/isdntel0.
-A Do A-law (ISDN line) -> mu-law (userland) conversion.
-U Do mu-law (ISDN line) -> A-law (userland) conversion.
-N Set sound conversion to do no format conversion.
The telephony data stream comes out of the line in a bit-reversed format, so the isdntel(4) driver does the bit-reversion process in any
case.
Additionally, the user can specify to do A-law to mu-law, mu-law to A-law or no conversion at all in the isdntel driver by using the
isdntelctl utility.
