[asterisk-users] Can asterisk give half-ring periodically for MWI?
Hi all,
Configuration: Analog phone connected to TDM400p.
I'd like the phone to give a half-ring (chirp) periodically when there
is a message waiting. Can this be done? How is it configured?
The visible "Message waiting" indicator and the stutter dial tone are
working fine, but are not sufficient for me.
Thanks!

The answer, I believe, is yes... but I'm not sure how.... We had this working on some SPA-2002s from Sipura... but then after an asterisk upgrade it stopped working. I'm not sure if it's a setting in the ATA or asterisk, and we just never needed to pursue it. So the answer is.. yes it can be done.. but unfortunately I'm not sure if it's an asterisk setting or an ATA setting.

For my wife I recently set up a cron schedule that, every ten minutes, greps the output of "show voicemail users" for a new message waiting. Upon finding one, it dumps a call file into asterisk's outgoing directory that rings the house phone and, when one is picked up, it connects the user to voicemailmain. You could put a waittime of just three or four seconds, that should give approx. half a ring and then stop....

Hi, thanks for the reply. This capability is provided by Sipura ATAs (apparently they do it each time they process SIP REGISTER messages with MWI). The periodic ring works when the same analog phone is connected the Sipura ATA. But not when it is connected to the TDM400p. So to reiterate, what I'm looking for is a way to get the half-ring generated by asterisk and/or TDM400p, WITHOUT the use of a SIP-based ATA. ----- Original Message ---- From: Matt <mhoppes at gmail.com> To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion <asterisk-users at lists.digium.com> Sent: Wednesday, September 5, 2007 2:40:08 PM Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Can asterisk give half-ring periodically for MWI?

That's a clever idea, and it sounds like a viable solution. But (and not knocking your inventiveness in any way), its a bit of a hack to get around what seems like a clear limitation. I'll keep looking for a more elegant solution over the next couple of days, and give this a go if nothing "cleaner" turns up.

Yeah, it's a hack for half-rings, but a little less so for putting someone right into voicemailmain without delay. Moj Justin Ridge wrote:> That's a clever idea, and it sounds like a viable solution.

The Polycom hardphones do it by default....BUT a colleague of mine worked in a large office and she said that monday morning people would be driven mad by almost every phone on the floor making that beeble-bup noise...over and over and over....
