.TH patgen 8 "2008-01-08" 
.SH NAME 
patgen \(em Generates a Pattern for a DAHDI Clear Channel Test
.SH SYNOPSIS 
.B patgen 
.I dahdi-device

.SH DESCRIPTION 
.B patgen
Sends test data to a DAHDI channel. The channel should be of CLEAR
signalling (e.g: B channel of a PRI line). pattest(8) is used to test
the data at the other side.  See its manual for more information.

.B patgen
Must be able to write to the channel. Hence this cannot be used for a
channel used by Asterisk.

.SH OPTIONS
.I dahdi-device
.RS
A DAHDI device file.
.RE

.SH EXAMPLE
  patgen /dev/dahdi/5

.SH BUGS
Will not work with channels whose number > 249 as they don't have device
files. For a simple workaround, see dahdi_diag.c .

.SH SEE ALSO 
pattest(8), dahdi_cfg(8), asterisk(8).
