NAME

       astribank_tool - Xorcom Astribank (xpp) control tool

SYNOPSIS

       astribank_tool [ options ] [ operation... ] -D device-path

       astribank_tool [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       astribank_tool  is a tool to control the USB-level functionality of an Astribank.  The tool operates on a
       single Astribank at a time (given as parameter to the -D command line option).

OPTIONS

       -D device-path
              Required. The device to  read  from/write  to.  This  is  bus_num/device_num,  where  bus_num  and
              device_num  are  the  first  two numbers in the output of lsusb(8) or dahdi_hardware(8).  On older
              versions  of  this  tool  you  needed  a  complete  path   to   the   device,   which   would   be
              /dev/bus/usb/bus_num/device_num, or /proc/bus/usb/bus_num/device_num.

       -p num
              Set the TwinStar port number. Either 0 or 1.

              (TODO: explain).

       -r type
              Reset the Astribank and renumerate its USB connection to power on product ID.

              Tyep can be: half or full.

              (TODO: explain those).

       -w 0|1
              Enable  (1)  or  disable  (0)  the TwinStar watchdog. When enabled, the Astribank will jump to the
              second port if this system is "not working" and the system on the second port is available.

       -Q
              Query astribank properties via MPP protocol.

       -n
              Renumerate the Astribank product number (e.g: from 1161 to 1162).

       -v
              Increase verbosity. May be used multiple times.

       -d mask
              Set debug mask to mask. Default is 0, 0xFF is "everything".

       -h
              Displays usage message.
