[VoIP] ZAPMICRO TDM clone & Pulse Dialling

Re my problems in getting the ZAPMICRO TDM clone to accept pulse dialling on
an FXS port.
Following on from my previous experiment. I've tried several telephones with
rotary dials all with no luck. They only seem to see a '1' no matter what
digit I dial.
I then tried adjusting the speed of the dial. Once I get the rotary dial
running at roughly half its normal speed, it seems to start to to accept the
digits on about 75 to 80% of the time.
Thus it looks very much like a timing issue somewhere - but where?
Anyone any idea where /how to adjust the rate of reception of 'loop-dis'
pulses?
