asterisk users - Aug 2009 - How to stop IVR once system receives DTMF?

Hi,

 

We are trying to implement a complex business logic in Asterisk. Executing
"Wait_For_Digit" command after playing IVR. We want to stop the IVR
once we
receive the digit. It is not recognizing the Digit until it completes the
IVR. How can we stop the IVR once we receive the digit?

 

Thanks 

BB

Use read with one digit.  If you want a specific digit, test for it like
this

exten => s,1(readacct),Read(digitacc,record/enteracct,1,skip,1,5])

exten => s,n,Gotoif($["${LEN(${digitacc})}" >
"1"]?readacct)

exten => s,n,Gotoif($["${digitacc}" != "5"]?readacct)

 

This instance "loops" until 5 is pressed.

Are you using Background(SomeSoundFile) ?
or PlayBack(SomeSoundFile) ?

Normally Background() will stop if the pressed digit(s) match any 
dialplan entry.

I think the IVR audio must be playing in "Background" mode, not
"Play" Mode.

 

Try that.  Background means play the sound and move on to the next
instruction. Play means to play the sound and after it is over, move to the
next instruction.

No, it does not.  Background means to play the sound in the background, and
wait for DTMF in the foreground.  The only method in Asterisk for playing a
soundfile and moving onto the next instruction is MOH.
