[Asterisk-Users] using built-in extension numbers on the ZAP channel
hello, using a legacy PBX to access a Asterisk Zap channel (Legacy PBX FXS --> FXO application Asterisk/TDM400P) I want to be able to "flash" the asterisk pbx. However by pressing the FLASH button on the extension connected to the Legacy PBX gets me the flash features on the Legacy PBX, not on the Asterisk PBX side. I thought of using the following codes (listed below) from http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+zap+channels but, when i dialled from the extension (legacy pbx) --> extension of Asterisk pbx -> zaptel/zap channel -> IVR, and pressed "*0", it was invalid extension. How can I pass on a 'flash' key / command so that I can flash the remote side instead of the local side ? -samudra Built-in Extension Numbers There are some "extension numbers" that are built into the Zap channel module. You may override these in your Dialplan, i.e. these are used only if the number dialed does not match any of your Dialplan extension patterns. *0 Send hook flash *67 Disable Caller ID *69 Say last caller's Caller ID ("call return") *70 Disable call waiting *72 Activate "call forward immediate" *73 Deactivate "call forward immediate" *78 Enable "Do Not Disturb" *79 Disable "Do Not Disturb" *80 Add last caller's caller ID to blacklist *82 Enable Caller ID (only if disabled with *67) In addition, there are other codes that are not specific to the Zap channel module: *8# Callgroup pickup --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

You need to configure your legacy PBX to send a flash through from your legacy phone to the legacy FXS port that is hooked to a * FXO port. This is not something you can do from the * side. *0 is asterisk's way of doing this. You need to find out if your legacy PBX has a similar method. It may not be possible. Of course you failed to mention what kind of PBX you have, so nobody can possibly advise you further, and at that point it's off-topic.

[Asterisk-Users] Re: using built-in extension numbers on the ZAP channel
Samudra, I had a similar problem where I could not use any of the built-in extensions or access codes (*0 or *78, etc). It turned out that I had placed in my extensions.conf, an "include" at the end of my main context to catch anything that was not a direct match and play the invalid extension recording. The first example is what caused the problem the second example is what I did to fix the problem. After fixing this I am able to dial *0 and flash the Zap channel. Thoroughly step through you extensions.conf and you might locate a similar problem. Good luck. 1st example (causing my problem): [nomatch] ; last include in the extensions.conf ; If no matching ext exists play invalid message and disconnect. exten => _.,1,Playback(invalid) ;play no match announcement exten => _.,2,Hangup ;disconnect caller 2nd example (this fixed my problem): [nomatch] ; last include in the extensions.conf ; If no matching ext exists play invalid message and disconnect. exten => _X.,1,Playback(invalid) ;play no match announcement exten => _X.,2,Hangup ;disconnect caller "Samudra E.
