similar to: ParkAndAnnounce Question

I have an issue with call parking and hope there is some undocumented feature for this. ;-) We are replacing our legacy PBX with asterisk, but to save money over time (handsets and network), I am trying to maintain the use of our legacy PBX. Asterisk extensions can not use the call parking features (not usable over trunk cards) of the old PBX, so I have to get the old PBX to use asterisk's.

In theory ParkAndAnnounce has a lot of usefulness, however, that we've had very little success with application... Our application is similiar to the local Walgreens pharmacy.. Dr. Calls in, selects the "Im a doctor with a prescription option"... call is parked, and announcement overhead is given.. "Doctor holding on ${EXTEN}" exten =>

Hi everybody. It is possible to announce the parking position through a paging to a group of extensions? I would like that when someone parks a call, some phones will announce with the speaker the position. Something like: exten => s,1,ParkAndAnnounce(call-parked-at:PARKED|30|PAGE(LOCAL/PAGEyyyy@custom-auto page&LOCAL/PAGEzzzz@custom-autopage|) Is there a way, maybe with a

Hi everyone I'm very, very, very, ... very new to Asterisk and I need some help with the ParkAndAnnounce command. Here's what I would like to do. I would like to specify an extension in the extension.conf file which is using the ParkAndAnnouce command (something like this) exten => 200,1,Answer exten => 200,2,ParkAndAnnounce(PARKED|60|SIP/${EXTEN}|some_context,${EXTEN},1)

OK I have just gone live with asterisk in a new office with approx 40 Polycom 501 handsets. I have a few questions: 1) Call Parking: I am able to park calls using the standard Asterisk call parking system (transfer to ext *70 etc...) I would like to make this a little easier for my users The Polycom 501s w/ SIP 1.5.2 seem to support some type of standard call parking, however I don't

I have ParkAndAnnounce set up to call my cell instead of Console/DSP and this works fine. If a caller tries to get me on my cell, they are parked... I am called and told where they are holding, but then ParkAndAnnounce hangs up. So I have to call my system back and dial the parked extension to be bridged with the caller. Is there anyway to make the announce jumpto something else so I can just

Hi All, When a call comes into my FXO port (Zap/1), it goes into the ParkAndAnnounce app and gets parked. This is OK. Then the app announces the file I selected through the (Console/dsp). This is OK. If I go to another extension FXS (Zap/2) and dial the parked call, then I get connected OK (Zap/2 & Zap/1). The problem is the Announcement through the (Console/dsp) doesn't stop, it

Regarding my earlier email (for some reason, I don't get my own emails from the list), I looked at the code and although I'm no programmer, I see that this is meant to hangup after the announcement. If I comment that line out, the call remains on the line, but I'm in limbo. I tried to add a chan->priority = 101 in place of the hangup and get this on the cli: = Spawn extension

an external program, which at this stage, is not customizable ... I don't know if alternatives (LiMO, Android, ...) would be more open to this customization but for Symbian, not only Nokia SIP client wouldn't let you autoanswer to SIP calls, but any other SIP client complying to Symbian design wouldn't support autoanswer. PS: Please, note that I'm far from being an expert in GSM

Hi: I want to make parking calls easier for my hard-working users. Is there a way to make the Polycom call park feature work with Asterisk? In case it just works out of the box, I haven't tried it yet; but the "call park" feature isn't enabled on the Polycom phones by default. -Stephen-

Hi Guys, I've been trying to get this application to work but I'm getting inconsistent results. My music on hold works fine by itself, I can park calls all day, works every time. I can dial the Console/dsp all day by itself and it works every time, sounds great, even play announcement gsm recording through the console, it just works. When I invoke the parkandannounce app, the

Please forgive me, if I misunderstand the problem completely. Following instructions in several german blogs, I want to configure Asterisk with a hfc-pci card, an old NTBA and an ISDN phone as a SIP device. It seems that I have to set signalling in zapata.conf to bri_net_ptmp. When I do this, Asterisk will hang if started with -vvvvc, the last lines of output being: [res_features.so] =>

Does anyone know if its possible to have more than one sound card in an Asterisk box and use each one as a paging zone? How about left and right channels of a single sound card? I'm looking to have 2 paging outputs if possible - I've read about using a Grandstream phone on autoanswer but I'd prefer to have the feeds come directly from the * box and go into a stereo amp feeding 2

When you use the Park button, on some phones you have to hit "More" to get it. Then when you park it, it calls back and tells you the extension...so you have to hang up then pick up again. Callpark apparently is a valid extension! Bill -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Stephen Bosch

We've had a regular Park function in the past but recently I found the ParkAndAnnounce() application and I love the idea behind it. Here's a snip from the wiki (http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+cmd+ParkAndAnnounce) so that we're all talking the same language: || ParkAndAnnounce(announce:template|timeout|dial|return_context) || || Park a call into the

One more Polycom IP601 question please (sorry for the long intro here to document) ... In order to closely approximate the behavior of the previous telephone system that many of the users are familiar with, I have set up call parking like this: - features.conf [general] section contains: parkext => ** ; What extension to dial to park parkpos => 10-11 ; What

All, Quick question that hopefully someone out there will know the answer to... We were previously running Asterisk 1.4.(something) (I forget which one) on Debian. Due to an office move, I am temporarily routing our calls through an Ubuntu box that I have. It runs Asterisk 1.4.17-dfsg-2ubuntu1 (basically, what came with Ubuntu.) Here's the problem I am having: We are using Polycom

Hi, I need to subscribe and use several Polycom-Kirk 5020 handsets along non-Polycom-Kirk handsets on a one-cell Polycom-Kirk 600/3 base station. Has anyone tried this ? Which values did you pick for Subscription mode (with or without Account Code) and IPEI ? Regards -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
