Hi there! I just try to play with die wake-up function described in http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+tips+wake-up Everything looks fine but there seem to be missing some soundfiles like "wakeup-menu". Where can I get these files in order to make this feature usable? Regards Julian Pawlowski

I have setup wake up call in * following those instructions http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+tips+Wake-Up+Call+PHP and it works fine. Now I have few questions. - When I "arrange" wake up call, does it call me only that day or I can set it up for whoole week? - Can I set it up for some other extension or only for one I'm calling? - Can this AM, PM be in 24h format? That is all (for now :)). -- Tomislav Parcina name.surname@email.t-com.hr
Something to think about is this too, when completed scheduling, ask would you like to notify another extension, so if the first does not answer in two attempts, ring a cell phone or such. But I cannot complain, I use the wakeup call function every day, and it is definitely better than any alarm clock or pbx reminder available.

It could do more but it doesnt. I was going to write a php one that doesnt work quite this way. Instead I was going to take advantage of features of the queue app so you dont need a seperate cron job, namely setting the time of the queue file to the time you want the wake up call. I was also going to add in features to record a custom message, and other such goodies. They arent complex features, but I think would make it nicer. But this is low priority for me right now. Between the Sac AUG and ETEL speaking engagements this month along with regular work I am unsure that I will have time until feburary. I hadnt thought about recurring ones, that would be better handled via a crontab type setup I think than creating a ton of queue files. You could easily do this, just a matter of storing who, when, how frequently, and then creating the queue files on time. If you are using the one I think you are then if you enter it in 24 hour format and the time is > 12 it can tell that you mean 24 hour format, hwoever it cant tell teh difference bewteen 12hr and 24hr if the time is < 12 so it asks. -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378 http://www.sacaug.org/ Sacramento Asterisk Users Group

You have to impose limits on the extension that can be notified, generally this isnt a problem for 99% of people, so ... When you have another extension, the user typically can only type numbers, this puts the limitation on creating a context that wakeup is going to use that is going to have enough capability. This also means that users might be able to circumvent dialing restrictions that they may otherwise have in place. Generally this wont be a problem, thus the 99% comment above, however there is that 1% ... One way to work around would be to get whatever context the call came in on and use that for outgoing, however that may not be acceptable to others ... Without going to a full blown profile system this type of feature creates other problems in terms of dialing restrictions. It is possible, maybe if I add that to mine I will make it optional however so that it should be suitable for 100% not just some arbitrarily random number I selected above :) -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378 http://www.sacaug.org/ Sacramento Asterisk Users Group -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
