Is there anyway to force an autopickup on a cisco 7940 / 60 from the dialplan ? My problem is that I am originating a call from the AMI, with the internal user being called first, and then connecting to external user. However, sometimes the internal user doesn't pick up the phone, so the call is never placed. I need to know the results of the call so I need to be able to either a) get the phone to answer immediately or b) be able to find out somewhere in the dialplan that they didn't answer. I cannot have the phones autoanswer as a matter of course, but only in this scenario. I also notice that there is no activity on the console *until* the internal user picks up the phone. Julian
Someone has written a script that uses telnet to log into the phone, and issue the test commands to answer the call. Search the lists it should be somewhere.

This is how I implemented "intercoms": Set the first (top) line to register to an account that will be used to ring, set the second line to be an intercom. You configure the auto-answer setting from the phone (not the SIP${MAC ADDRESS}.conf file. I made sip accounts like SIP/r1000 and SIP/i1000 (or variables ${r1000} and ${i1000} that point to the accounts), where any account starting with an "r" rings the phone, and any account starting with an "i" is an intercom. Thus, when calling from one desk to another, the intercom channel is called. When a call comes in from a trunk, the ring channel us called. Always set the first (top) line to be a ring line - that line is used by default when the handset is picked up. This prevents a phone from auto answering a park ring-back from a trunk...
