asterisk users - May 2005 - Polycom IP600 Questions

1. How do you set the music on hold to work with asterisk. Right now
when I place a call on hold the caller hears nothing. MOH works with all
my other IP phones.

2. Ringer Volume. How do you set the ringer volume? So that it's set on
reboot.


Thanks

I don't know the answer to this one (it just works for me), but I  
remember it coming up on this list before.  You can probably find the  
answer in the archives of this list.

If you mean so that it does not reset after every call, you'll need  
to do configs via an FTP server.  On 1.4.1 and lower firmware, change  
this line in ipmid.cfg:

       <volume voice.volume.persist.handset="0"  
voice.volume.persist.headset="0" .... />

to:

       <volume voice.volume.persist.handset="1"  
voice.volume.persist.headset="0" ... />

On the 1.5.2 firmware, change the same line, but it is moved to sip.cfg.

If you do this, the volume will stay wherever you set it, but I'm not  
sure if it will stay through a reboot - probably not.
