similar to: Call Parking Grandstream

We're using Grandstream GXP-2000 with programmed buttons to the first 5 parking lot extensions. When a call is parked, whichever parking lot extension it's parked on lights up red. We've never used the "announce" part and I'm wondering if there's an option I can't seem to find to disable the announce so the transfer happens faster. Thanks for any help, Ken

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

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

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

The vast majority of what I've done with Asterisk has been with the Grandstream GXP-2000's. These phones work great for us for everything *except* speaker quality is quite poor and appears to be half-duplex. So now that we've bought and are using 40 GXP-2000's we're doing some testing on other phones. I've bought a Polycom 301 & 501 as well as a Linksys SPA942. While

>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

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, Is there a way to do a blind transfer within an asterisk dialplan (like '##')? The reason I need this (I think) rather than a regular Goto() is that I'm trying to do one-touch parking. I can park a call using one-touch parking and then pick it up again, however if I try to re-park the call, it gets lost. I think that is because asterisk thinks I'm still on the park extension.

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

Version - Asterisk SVN-trunk-r12793M (1.2.4) I have 4 Grandstream GXP 2000 phones configured. However at the moment, I have had to disable BLF, Hints, and Call Limiting due to an extremely annoying bug which seems to make the phones channels "lock" in busy after a call has been hungup. If I do a show hints after say extension 200 has hung up I get the following -= Registered

Has anyone managed to get multi-parking lot call parking working correctly? I've had several attempts at it, and never seem to be able to get it to go properly - (actually, at all): I've most recently done this with 1.6.1.x, and now 1.6.2.x, with no luck in either case. What I've been "trying" is the following: features.conf [general] parkext => 100 [featuremap]

Hi People, We use the Grandstream GXP-2000 phones, firmware 1.1.1.14, Asterisk PBX, Slackware Linux 10.2, loaded on a Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.66GHz Box... The issues that we are experiencing involves our Telephone Operator's/Receptionist whom answer multiple incoming calls... As an example.., when they answer line 1 and Line 2 starts to ring they would ask the person on line 1 to

I started out a few years ago with some SPA-841 sets, because the Grandstream 2000 I thought I wanted was perpetually delayed. The GS had more call appearances, and I didn't want just the 4 max that the SPA offered. As it turns out, with the greater flexibility of VOIP, I don't need 'dedicated' CAs the way I needed them on ISDN previously, so 4 is actually adequate. Along the line,

Hi When I make a call with the Grandstream GXP-2000 through Asterisk (and SER) to landline using VSP, after I hang up the call the other party are still connected for another 30-40 seconds. I've notice that the SIP BYE is sent to Asterisk, but Asterisk sends no SIP BYE on to VSP. When I use the SPA-941 the call terminates on the other right away soon as I hang up. I have updated the

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

When you use the Park button, on some phones you have to hit "More" to get it. Then when you park it, it calls back and tells you the extension...so you have to hang up then pick up again. Callpark apparently is a valid extension! Bill -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Stephen Bosch

Short replay to long 'short of it'!! Use a queue for your calls set the queue to ring. 'r' option I belive. Set up a queue that has no members but allows you t 'joinempty' Setup an extension that AddQueueMember(home-silent). You will then need to hangup and the call will ring. Before entering the queue you could have the system send the YAC info for you. It will

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

That is how many old PBX phone systems work and it is that way our users are used to working with the phone system. Another issue with the way Asterisk callparking currently works is that there is only one call-park orbit, you cannot use a different set of numbers for a different call park instance(i.e. 700 goes to 701-720 AND 740 goes to 741-750). We also have several Grandstream phones which
