[Asterisk-Users] Cisco ATA186 Internal Dialplan: How to send *8?
I have been beating my head against the wall trying to get my ATA186 to send through the *8 (call pickup) sequence back to Asterisk. The Administrator's Guide from Cisco would indicate that the first element in the default dialplan *St4- would mean that any sequence of digits following a * would be sent out after a 4-second timeout. But if I hit *8 it just sits there forever. If I hit *88 it will send *88 after four seconds, though. So I have found one thing that works, sort of: with the dialplan entry of *8t2 it will send *8 to Asterisk if I hit *88. For now, that's good enough, but my Sipura phones all send the *8 straightaway, and if I can't find a workaround I'll have to train everyone to use different pickup sequences depending on which station they're at, which is definitely sub-optimal. I just wonder if anyone else has solved this. Thanks. B.
