similar to: Want to automatically park call and have callerhear ring tones

Here's the short of it. I have an Asterisk 1.2.1 system setup to handle both personal and business calls. Now, the business callers will hear music while on hold, so the default MOH needs to play regular music. Personal callers should hear rings, not music. I have this working except for one specific case. If someone calls during the day (we're night people), asterisk will not ring

Hi! I'd like to be able to park/pickup a call with h323. Parking the call is easy, using ParkAndAnnounce. But ParkAndAnnounce does not return the parkinglot in a variable. So, I can't retrieve the call later. To keep it simple, here is a simple scenario of what I want: The call is established from phone 307. I enter DTMF code "#1" on phone 307. The call is then parked. I

Hi I'm trying to get the rebuilt parking functionality to work in Asterisk 12.0.0. In Asterisk 11.6.0 I managed to get a call to get parked by adding a dynamic feature in features.conf for the DMTF sequence *# which called a macro in extensions.conf, which then runned the ParkAndAnnounce application, and the call got parked. The syntax for ParkAndAnnounce I used was this (I don't

So, I can't figure out how to get the parkandannounce application to work the way I want it to... I have cisco 7960 IP phones using SIP, and this is what I have in my extensions.conf: exten => 700,1,ParkAndAnnounce(pbx-transfer:PARKED|90|SIP/${EXTEN:1}|internal,${EXTEN:1},1) exten => 700,2,Hangup and in my parking.conf: [general] parkext => 700 ; What ext.

Good Day list, My head is pounding from google overload. Does anyone know if there is any way to park a call and specify the ("context", "Extension", and Priority) of where to call back to if the call times out and is parked too long? ParkAndAnnounce does this feature, however I do not like that it has to call you back to announce the location. I want my cake and eat it

Hi everybody, I would like to set asterisk up such that to use the call parking feature, instead of transferring a call to the extension set up in features.conf, you just dial a code (e.g. *3) and this then parks the call. The main reason for this is that a number of the phones I use have transfer buttons that I can't reprogram to use Asterisk's own transfer functions, therefore you

We've had a regular Park function in the past but recently I found the ParkAndAnnounce() application and I love the idea behind it. Here's a snip from the wiki (http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+cmd+ParkAndAnnounce) so that we're all talking the same language: || ParkAndAnnounce(announce:template|timeout|dial|return_context) || || Park a call into the

I have ParkAndAnnounce set up to call my cell instead of Console/DSP and this works fine. If a caller tries to get me on my cell, they are parked... I am called and told where they are holding, but then ParkAndAnnounce hangs up. So I have to call my system back and dial the parked extension to be bridged with the caller. Is there anyway to make the announce jumpto something else so I can just

Hi All, When a call comes into my FXO port (Zap/1), it goes into the ParkAndAnnounce app and gets parked. This is OK. Then the app announces the file I selected through the (Console/dsp). This is OK. If I go to another extension FXS (Zap/2) and dial the parked call, then I get connected OK (Zap/2 & Zap/1). The problem is the Announcement through the (Console/dsp) doesn't stop, it

(Sorry if this has hit the list before. I sent it yesterday, but never saw it come through) I actually got rid of my phone service.. no more pots line in my house. But, I miss my call screen macro. Any way to do this with a SIP channel? (Obviously the parking isn't the problem, but rather recording their name). I set it up so they should only have to record their name once provided they

Hi everyone I'm very, very, very, ... very new to Asterisk and I need some help with the ParkAndAnnounce command. Here's what I would like to do. I would like to specify an extension in the extension.conf file which is using the ParkAndAnnouce command (something like this) exten => 200,1,Answer exten => 200,2,ParkAndAnnounce(PARKED|60|SIP/${EXTEN}|some_context,${EXTEN},1)

>From discussions with the receptionist staff, this is what we need: X number of buttons for parking slots. These buttons should be lit when a call is parked there. When on a call, just pushing an unlit button will park the call. (The do not want to hit hold, transfer, etc.) Hitting Transfer and the button would most likely be OK. To pick up a call, they can push the parking slot button. The

I've lurked for a while, but I think this is one of my first "pleas" for help. I'm having issues where a parked call using the macro below is getting "stuck". Users park the call via a blfxfer key on an Aastra phone. If the call is a blind transfer, it tries to park the call. If it isn't a blind transfer, it tries to unpark the call. Only 2 extensions (2759 and

In theory ParkAndAnnounce has a lot of usefulness, however, that we've had very little success with application... Our application is similiar to the local Walgreens pharmacy.. Dr. Calls in, selects the "Im a doctor with a prescription option"... call is parked, and announcement overhead is given.. "Doctor holding on ${EXTEN}" exten =>

I'm attempting to do this in an AGI program: char line[80]; ... printf("EXEC PARKANDANNOUNCE pbx-transfer:PARKED|300|Console/dsp\n"); printf("GET VARIABLE ${PARKEDAT}\n"); fgets(line,80,stdin); The script hangs because asterisk doesn't provide any response to stdin. Elsewhere in my program, I have e.g. printf("EXEC READ foo|enter-password|4\n");

Hi all, I've got a fairly minor question, but it's getting on my nerves .. hopefully it's an easy answer. I'm having trouble parking calls on our 7960s. It works fine on ZAP devices, though, and they're both using the same context. What I do is: When I'm on the call, I hit More, Transfer, 700, Dial. I then get a fast busy. If I dial 701, for example, I do get the

I have an asterisk setup using asterisk 1.2.4 and a mix of grandstream phones - BT 102 and GXP 200. The problem I having is with call parking. Isn't it suppose to announce the extension where the call is being parked to the person parking the call at the time the call is being parked. How ever in my setup I hear nothing but if I dial the default parked extension I get back the call. Am

I actually got rid of my phone service.. no more pots line in my house. But, I miss my call screen macro. Any way to do this with a SIP channel? (Obviously the parking isn't the problem, but rather recording their name). I set it up so they should only have to record their name once provided they call from the same number. Anyway, I think I'm gonna get a big "NO" on

Hi everybody. It is possible to announce the parking position through a paging to a group of extensions? I would like that when someone parks a call, some phones will announce with the speaker the position. Something like: exten => s,1,ParkAndAnnounce(call-parked-at:PARKED|30|PAGE(LOCAL/PAGEyyyy@custom-auto page&LOCAL/PAGEzzzz@custom-autopage|) Is there a way, maybe with a
