[asterisk-users] using asterisk to do remote control functions
Hi Im very green to asterisk, and I have been asked if asterisk can be used to do remote control, like opening gates etc, say when the user dials a predefined number ... And what hardware is required ... Many Thanks -- Gregory Machin gregory.machin@gmail.com www.linuxpro.co.za

We use it for some control, status checking, and also we use asterisk for overhead paging when certain alert situations occur. The hardware I'm using is Opto22 Snap ehternet brains. One of the models I use is the SNAP-B3000-ENET which can sometimes be found on Ebay. The hardware isn't cheap but they provide excellent documentation and software for free, and free training. They have a free linux developers kit which has, as an example program, a handy command line utility which I use with asterisk. If you just want to control a couple of digital points this hardware may be overkill, but it is cool stuff. Marv Horst -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Has anyone used the TrixBox/AAH builtin facility xPL for "facility" (including home/office/industrial) automation?
