-1.1 Troubleshooting
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Q: Module yealink compiled and installed without any problem but phone
- is not initialized and does not react to any actions.
-A: If you see something like:
- hiddev0: USB HID v1.00 Device [Yealink Network Technology Ltd. VOIP USB Phone
- in dmesg, it means that the hid driver has grabbed the device first. Try to
- load module yealink before any other usb hid driver. Please see the
- instructions provided by your distribution on module configuration.

-4.1 lineX
-~~~~~~~~~
-Reading /sys/../lineX will return the format string with its current value:
+lineX
+~~~~~
+
+Reading /sys/../lineX will return the format string with its current value.
- Example:
- cat ./line3
- 888888888888
- Linux Rocks!
+ Example::
+
+ cat ./line3
+ 888888888888
+ Linux Rocks!
Writing to /sys/../lineX will set the corresponding LCD line.
+
- Excess characters are ignored.
- If less characters are written than allowed, the remaining digits are
unchanged.
- The tab '\t'and '\n' char does not overwrite the original content.
- Writing a space to an icon will always hide its content.
- Example:
- date +"%m.%e.%k:%M" | sed 's/^0/ /' > ./line1
+ Example::
+
+ date +"%m.%e.%k:%M" | sed 's/^0/ /' > ./line1
Will update the LCD with the current date & time.
-4.2 get_icons
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Reading will return all available icon names and its current settings:

+show/hide icons
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
Writing to these files will update the state of the icon.
Only one icon at a time can be updated.
If an icon is also on a ./lineX the corresponding value is
updated with the first letter of the icon.
- Example - light up the store icon:
- echo -n "STORE" > ./show_icon
+ Example - light up the store icon::
- cat ./line1

+ echo -n "STORE" > ./show_icon
- Example - sound the ringtone for 10 seconds:
- echo -n RINGTONE > /sys/..../show_icon
- sleep 10
- echo -n RINGTONE > /sys/..../hide_icon

-5. Sound features
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sound is supported by the ALSA driver: snd_usb_audio
One 16-bit channel with sample and playback rates of 8000 Hz is the practical
limit of the device.
- Example - recording test:
- arecord -v -d 10 -r 8000 -f S16_LE -t wav foobar.wav
+ Example - recording test::
+
+ arecord -v -d 10 -r 8000 -f S16_LE -t wav foobar.wav
