Driver documentation for yealink usb-p1k phones
0. 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. LCD features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The LCD is divided and organised as a 3 line display:
|[] [][] [][] [][] in |[][]
|[] M [][] D [][] : [][] out |[][]
store
NEW REP SU MO TU WE TH FR SA
[] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] []
[] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] []
Line 1 Format (see below) : 18.e8.M8.88...188
Icon names : M D : IN OUT STORE
Line 2 Format : .........
Icon name : NEW REP SU MO TU WE TH FR SA
Line 3 Format : 888888888888
Format description:
From a user space perspective the world is seperated in "digits" and "icons".
A digit can have a character set, an icon can only be ON or OFF.
Format specifier
'8' : Generic 7 segment digit with individual addressable segments
Reduced capabillity 7 segm digit, when segments are hard wired together.
'1' : 2 segments digit only able to produce a 1.
'e' : Most significant day of the month digit,
able to produce at least 1 2 3.
'M' : Most significant minute digit,
able to produce at least 0 1 2 3 4 5.
Icons or pictograms:
'.' : For example like AM, PM, SU, a 'dot' .. or other single segment
elements.
4. 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 coresponding 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
