asterisk users - Jan 2009 - Use ZAP/Dahdi channel for outbound only... no inbound?

Greetings list-

I have a box with a single FXO card in it. I'm able to dial out ZAP/1 with
no problems and as expected. However, I would like inbound calls on that POTS
line to go unanswered by Asterisk since I have other equipment on the line.
I've setup zapata.conf for the channel without a context but the line is
still answered. I've also setup a blank context with the same result.

There *must* be a way to accomplish this... right?

--Tim

Put the channel into its own context for example call it no-answer

The in your extensions.conf file put this

[no-answer]
Exten => s,1,Wait(240) ; Wait 4 minutes
Exten => s,2,NoOp

It will let the phone ring for the specified time. You could add something
after s,1 if you wanted asterisk to pick up incase your other equipment did
not.
