Recently I installed T400P card on Trixbox CE 2.4.2 and looks like the card is working fine.
So far I haven't connected my PRI. Just did a initial test using RJ45 connector ( You can Connect 1 to pin 4 and pin 2 to pin 5 )
When you connect the connector your SPAN enabled port LED will turn GREEN.
Following are some of my observations:

CLI> pri show span 1
Primary D-channel: 24
Status: Provisioned, In Alarm, Down, Active ( Note: if you connect the loopback connector the status will turn UP instead of DOWN)
Switchtype: National ISDN
Type: CPE
Window Length: 0/7
Sentrej: 0
SolicitFbit: 0
Retrans: 0
Busy: 0
Overlap Dial: 0
T200 Timer: 1000
T203 Timer: 10000
T305 Timer: 30000
T308 Timer: 4000
T309 Timer: -1
T313 Timer: 4000
N200 Counter: 3

===============================
I used genzaptelconf command to autoconfigure my ZAPTEL Card.
The moment I typed this command my LED's on the Card turned ON( Red in my case) except the first port, which will turn green when u connect your PRI or loopback connector.
==================
some other commands:

modprobe tor2
ztcfg -vv
shutdown -r now

genzaptelconf does not work
Tue, 01/22/2008 - 10:34am

genzaptelconf does not work on a T1 card. That does look close for US PRI.

you will need to hand write it in /etc/zaptel.conf:

loadzone=us
defaultzone=us

#T400 port 1 [slot:4 bus:6 span: 1]**
span=1,0,0,esf,b8zs
bchan=1-23
dchan=24

comment out any unused ports with #

all this autogenerated using genzaptelconf command..
thanks for the unused port suggestion. will do that ASAP.

genzaptelconf will create
Tue, 01/22/2008 - 9:56pm

genzaptelconf will create some output, but it is not going to correctly populate all the correct parameters, you still need to do some hand editing.
span=1,1,1,esf,b8zs is wrong, read through the asteriskguru link.
