Please document FeTAp conversion #1

Open probonopd opened 6 years ago

Since the code refers to FeTAp, I am assuming you are converting one into a SIP phone. Can you please document the hardware aspects, e.g., are you using the original handset and ringer? What does one need to solder where?

Update: Just discovered

But some documentation on the other hardware aspects would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi @probonopd, thanks for you comment. I hope to find some time updating the documentation later this week. In the meantime I can give you some information on the setup here: I used the original microphone and speaker and soldered jack plugs to respective cables and connect these plugs with a USB soundcard. The ringer is replaced by USB powered speakers connected the pi's audio connector. I found two pins from the cradle, so that these can indicate if the cradle is up. I also added a LED to indicate the systems state. I added a web interface to be able to set phonenumbers for the keys and to add numbers to a whitelist for incoming calls. I am currently working on the possibility to update the SIP registration without requiring root permissions for the web interface. Finally, I want to be able to run the pi wifi in an access point mode to be able to set it up in any wifi network.

In the meantime some pictures here. I painted the phone pink. image image

I am currently working on the wiring of a slightly different keytap from FeTap 751-2. The FeTap above is a FeTap 755 supporting MFV. I will complete the documentation later. Sorry for the delay.

No hurries. Keep up this great work.
