asterisk users - Jun 2006 - Configuring behaviour of flash hook

Hi all,

I have some problems configuring the right behaviour of Zaptel devices
in asterisk. Especially with three way call, call waiting and call
transfers.

Having one party on hold and the other on line I would like to have
 - Flash Hook + 3 to activate three way call
 - Flash Hook + 2 to swap between user on hold and user on line.

On call waiting I would like to have:
 - Flash Hook + 2 to accept waiting call 
 - Flash Hook + 0 to reject it

Having one party on hold while talking with an other I would also like
to have:
 - Flash Hook + 1 to disconnect from the current call.

I know that some of these features are configured in features.conf, but
always totally without the use of flash hook. 

Is there any way to configure this behaviour in asterisk?


Thanks in advance :)

Henry

I don't think you can do what you want.  The Zap custom calling features 
work very much like Centrex service in the USA.

No, flash-hook features are handled by chan_zap itself.

Not without changing the code in chan_zap, no. Making sequences of flash-hook
plus a digit will be non-trivial, to say the least.
