Status +~~~~~~~~~ +The p1k is a relatively cheap usb 1.1 phone with: + - keyboard full support, yealink.ko / input event API + - LCD full support, yealink.ko / sysfs API + - LED full support, yealink.ko / sysfs API + - dialtone full support, yealink.ko / sysfs API + - ringtone full support, yealink.ko / sysfs API + - audio playback full support, snd_usb_audio.ko / alsa API + - audio record full support, snd_usb_audio.ko / alsa API + +For vendor documentation see http://www.yealink.com + + +1. Compilation (stand alone version) +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +Currently only kernel 2.6.x.y versions are supported. +In order to build the yealink.ko module do + + make + +If you encounter problems please check if in the MAKE_OPTS variable in +the Makefile is pointing to the location where your kernel sources +are located, default /usr/src/linux. + + +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. + +Q: Phone is working now (displays version and accepts keypad input) but I can't + find the sysfs files. +A: The sysfs files are located on the particular usb endpoint. On most + distributions you can do: "find /sys/ -name get_icons" for a hint. + + +2. keyboard features +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +The current mapping in the kernel is provided by the map_p1k_to_key +function: + + Physical USB-P1K button layout input events + + + up up + IN OUT left, right + down down + + pickup C hangup enter, backspace, escape + 1 2 3 1, 2, 3 + 4 5 6 4, 5, 6, + 7 8 9 7, 8, 9, + * 0 # *, 0, #, + + The "up" and "down" keys, are symbolised by arrows on the button. + The "pickup" and "hangup" keys are symbolised by a green and red phone + on the button. + + +3.

Driver usage +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +For userland the following interfaces are available using the sysfs interface: + /sys/.../ + line1 Read/Write, lcd line1 + line2 Read/Write, lcd line2 + line3 Read/Write, lcd line3 + + get_icons Read, returns a set of available icons. + hide_icon Write, hide the element by writing the icon name. + show_icon Write, display the element by writing the icon name. + + map_seg7 Read/Write, the 7 segments char set, common for all + yealink phones. (see map_to_7segment.h) + + ringtone Write, upload binary representation of a ringtone, + see yealink.c. status EXPERIMENTAL due to potential + races between async. and sync usb calls. + + +4.1 lineX +~~~~~~~~~ +Reading /sys/../lineX will return the format string with its current value: + + 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 + + Will update the LCD with the current date & time. + + +4.2 get_icons +~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +Reading will return all available icon names and its current settings: + + cat ./get_icons + on M + on D + on : + IN + OUT + STORE + NEW + REP + SU + MO + TU + WE + TH + FR + SA + LED + DIALTONE + RINGTONE + + +4.3 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 + + cat ./line1 + 18.e8.M8.88...188 + S + + 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 - playback test: + aplay foobar.wav + + +6.
