My problem was not putting the call in the .cfg file properly but the
docs are very good.

Adding it to the fpac side is a no brainer... Here is the line I put in
the fpac.conf file

Trcall    = KP4DJT-7

Command

        TELPac  = connect kp4djt-10 813626
 
And for the direct connect

Application
#       F1TVE-1 = /usr/sbin/fpac/call_tcp f1tve 1022
#       F1TVE-5 = /usr/sbin/conversd/bin/axconv -c 151 -n %u f1tve.ampr.org 3600
        KP4DJT-10 = /usr/sbin/telpac_node  %S
End

That was all I had to do The first one handles a connect to the node and then
a speed connect (issuing TELPac ) and the second one handles a direct connect
If on the local lan freq it will just be
c kp4djt-10
If on the network it will be
c kp4djt-10 v switch_call, 813626
Replace switch call with your local switch.
Example, a connection from the Tampa lan would be as follows
c kp4djt-10 v kc5qcn-8 813626
The network will route the connection to my switch which will then set up
the telpac connection.
