- Hello All,
-
- How can one detect the call charge pulses on a telephone line ?
- If the pulse is sent on the customer's line, what does it "look" like ?
-
- Is there a "standard" circuit that produces a TTL level pulse on detection
- of the call charge pulse ?
-
- I read somewhere that both lines are raised in potential relative to ground;
- I tried some measurments relative to ground using a scope, but couldn't
- find anything "obvious".
-
- I am looking for information on 2 wire telephone lines, as some countries
- have 4 wire lines etc.
-
- If anyone has a complete diagram of a call charge (unit) meter, I'd
- really appreciate a copy of the circuit diagram.
-
- Thanks,
- Paul.
