DAHDI error: Got DAHDI event: HDLC Bad FCS (8) on D-channel of span 1

Hi All,

I know error mentioned in subject line is very common, and there are many discussions found on net; but none of them clearly tell what is the solution for this and may vary case to case. So I am creating this new topic here.

My environment:
Ubuntu: 14.4 LS
Asterisk: 13.9.1
DAHDI version: 2.10.2 Echo Canceller
PRI version: 1.5.0
DAHDI hardware: Allocard 4aCP1e (3rd Gen) (alloPL4xxp+)

When I connect PRI line to above hardware, it seems D channel is not coming up and keeps throwing below error on CLI, but light turns green on DAHDI hardware card which indicates it is getting proper TX and RX signals.

Attached are the DAHDI config files.

Please review and advise what am I missing here as the PRI line works well when connected thru service provider’s Schmid modem.

Thank you.

try:
span=1,1 in system file.

Thanks James.

I already tried that and got same result. i also tried different combinations with and without CRC4 etc. But no luck.
