## Configuring t38modem
|
||||
### Init script
|
||||
|
||||
- To automatically start t38modem, you need to create Systemd services, as well as start and stop scripts
|
||||
- script is adapted from https://web.archive.org/web/20111231021042/https://www.foriamroot.org/hylafax-6-0-debian-or-ubuntu-t38modem-1-0-asterisk-1-6/
|
||||
- `sudo mkdir -p /etc/t38modem/bin/`
|
||||
|
||||
## Using t38modem (requires systemd)
|
||||
First we'll create the configuration directory under `/etc` using `sudo mkdir -p /etc/t38modem/bin/`.
|
||||
|
||||
Then create a file named `/etc/t38modem/bin/run` using the following content.
|
||||
It will be the script to manage the current status of t38modem.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
# /etc/t38modem/bin/run

And then we'll have to make it executable like this.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo chmod +x /etc/t38modem/bin/run
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Quick script overview
|
||||
- Using that script, it is possible to `start` or `stop` the emulated modem.
|
||||
- `-t` enables debugging
|
||||
- More `t`'s is deeper debugging (e.g. `-tttt`)
|
||||
- You can of course run the t38modem command without this init script
|
||||
- If t38modem says it was able to create the virtual modem but `/dev/ttyT38-1` is not available, you do not have sufficient permissions
|
||||
- Configuration is specified in `/etc/t38modem/config`
|
||||
|
||||
### Create the configuration file
|
||||
Create a file using the following contents at `/etc/t38modem/config`.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# /etc/t38modem/config
|
||||
T38MODEM_SIP_USERNAME="USERNAME"

|
||||
You should give only root access to the config.
|
||||

||||
```bash

||||
sudo chown root:root /etc/t38modem/config
|
||||
sudo chmod 700 /etc/t38modem/config
|
||||

- You can now communicate with your modem `/dev/ttyT38-1` , just as if it was a real Hayes compatible modem (https://www.computerhope.com/atcom.htm)

|

- Test using minicom, configure it to point to our modem. Each command is initiated by a Return
|
||||
- Dial a number:
|
||||
- Get the attention of the modem: `at` -> `OK`
|
||||
- Dial: `atd0123456789`
|
||||
- Dial: `atd[NUMBER]`, replace '[NUMBER]' using the number, you want to call
|
||||
- If all works correctly you should be able to answer the phone and hear a single beep

### systemd service
|
||||
If you want to run a fax server, you can create a systemd service to let your emulated fax modem start automatically on system boot.
|
||||
To do this you have to copy paste the following into `/etc/systemd/system/t38modem.service`.
|
||||
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
# /etc/systemd/system/t38modem.service
