asterisk users - Oct 2004 - loggedoff extension - why does * say "isonthephone"

I think you will find the functionality you are looking for is in * already.
Here is an excerpt from the sample extensions.conf file that is included with
the source:

exten => s,1,Dial(${ARG2},20)                             ; Ring the
interface, 20 seconds maximum
exten => s,2,Goto(s-${DIALSTATUS},1)                ; Jump based on status
(NOANSWER,BUSY,CHANUNAVAIL,CONGESTION,ANSWER)
exten => s-NOANSWER,1,Voicemail(u${ARG1})   ; If unavailable, send to
voicemail w/ unavail announce
exten => s-NOANSWER,2,Goto(default,s,1)         ; If they press #, return to
start
exten => s-BUSY,1,Voicemail(b${ARG1})             ; If busy, send to
voicemail w/ busy announce
exten => s-BUSY,2,Goto(default,s,1)                    ; If they press #,
return to start
exten => s-.,1,Goto(s-NOANSWER,1)                  ; Treat anything else as
no answer
exten => a,1,VoicemailMain(${ARG1})                  ; If they press *, send
the user into VoicemailMain

Same here, I just changed the b to u. Unavailable message is more generic,
but it beats it saying busy when its not.

I've noticed this too,  I think it returns a "busy" state.

thephone"

Hi,

I have following one-line macro extension:
------------------------
[macro-oneline]

;

; Standard extension macro (with call forwarding):

; ${ARG1} - Device(s) to ring

;

#exten => s,1,AGI(misterhouse.agi,"CallerID")

exten => s,1,NoOp

exten => s,2,DBget(temp=CFIM/${MACRO_EXTEN}) ; Get CFIM key, if not existing,
goto 103

exten => s,3,Dial(Local/${temp}@default/n) ; Unconditional forward

exten => s,4,Dial(${ARG1},20,tr) ; 20sec timeout

exten => s,5,NoOp

exten => s,6,DBget(temp=CFBS/${MACRO_EXTEN}) ; Get CFBS key, if not existing,
goto 106

exten => s,7,Dial(Local/${temp}@default/n) ; Forward on busy or unavailable



; No CFIM key

exten => s,103,Goto(s,4)

; No CFBS key - voicemail ?

exten => s,105,Voicemail(b${MACRO_EXTEN})

exten => s,106,Hangup

exten => s,107,Voicemail(u${MACRO_EXTEN})

exten => s,108,Hangup

------------------------


Is it normal that system says "is on the phone" even if extension is
not
logged in at all ?

Regards,

Robert.
