A follow up (late better than never) Finally had time to sit down and look at this sip.cfg <keys key.scrolling.timeout="1" key.IP_500.31.function.prim="BuddyStatus"/> This turns the Services key which I never use on a 501 into the Buddy Status. It even works while on a call. One touch! Bill ________________________________ From: Bill Gibbs

All, Slightly off topic. Polycom released their SIP software version 1.6.6 for their phones recently. I was under the impression that this release fixed a previous limitation where the phones would only watch 7 buddies, ie send 7 sip subscriptions to Asterisk. I have configured a phone directory to watch 30 or so appearances, and it still seems to only be sending 7 subscriptions to Asterisk.

I could have sworn I saw a post about this recently but I can't find it so apologies if this is a dupe, but is there anyway to control the order in the Polycom Buddies list?

I've got two Polycom 500's that I'm playing with, and I want view the status of either phone, (busy/on the phone/etc.) from the other. I've got this cute little 'Buddies' button, and I can add contacts to that. But the status doesnt actually update. Do I need to setup realtime for asterisk? Can anyone point me to some documentation or give me some hints? Thanks, Nihal

Greetings, Recently there has been talk of the presence/buddy feature with asterisk and Polycom phones. I have it setup, and working as expected, however I can only get 7 buddies to appear on the screen at any given time. Has anyone gotten more than 7 buddies to appear? I'm just trying to find out if this is some polycom limitation, bug, or my error. Thanks, Matt -- Matt Gibson VOIP

Hi, I configured Buddy Watch function on my Polycom IP 601. It works well, until I make a reload of Asterisk. After reload, It can't monitor any lines and I have to restart the phone to reactivate this function. Is this a specific problem of asterisk-1.2.3? How can I solve it? Thank in advance, regards, Marco.

Somewhat off topic. We upgraded a Polycom phone from SIP v1.6.3 to v1.6.6 The phone will no longer send SIP subscription messages for buddies to Asterisk. I have broken the directory file down to make it as simple as possible. Here is what it contains. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <!-- $Revision: 1.2 $ $Date: 2004/12/21 18:28:05

Hi, I found your post on http://threebit.net/mail-archive/asterisk-users/msg04580.html I am having the exact same issue with the Polycom IP601 (SIP version 1.6.6.0036) with Asterisk 1.2.7.1. I was wondering if you found any solution to it. I would really appreciate if you could share your solution. Thanks, Khairul. BELOW, THIS WAS YOUR POST Polycom IP 601 Buddy Watch problems

I've somehow managed to battle may way through hinting issues with type=peer type=friend and various other oddities and now have presence working correctly on my Polycom 600 and Grandstream GXP-2000 phones. However, on the Polycom I have to press the Buddies softkey in order to see if an extension with a hints priority is in use or not. I've spent all day going through google and my

I'm running into an issue w/ Buddy status on Polycom IP650 phones using buddy status (with SIP Hints) on Asterisk 1.4. Sometimes the status on the phones will "stick" in the busy status. I have noticed that I can call that extension & the status will reset (sometimes). Anyone else encountered this or anything similar. -Chris

Hi, I just enable "presence" on my phones, so that secretaries can see whether their bosses are already on a call or not. Unfortunately, this came with the added "benefit" of adding two soft key features on the screen, "MyStatus" and "Buddies", which I want removed (it's good enough for me that they can see status by looking at the line icon, this

Hi, I configured Buddy Watch function on my Polycom IP 601. It works well, until I make a reload of Asterisk. After reload, if I give the "show hints" command in Asterisk's CLI, it says that there are no watcher for the extensions that I configured. Before the reload in the CLI appears: -= Registered Asterisk Dial Plan Hints =- 3002 : SIP/3002 State:

Hello! I have 2 table: users and buddies User: id, name, ... Buddy: id, user_id, user_buddy_id, ...

And there is conflict if I had the second one (the first one is discarded) class User has_many

Hi, I am using Polycom 501 and I came across a problem. As soon as I have incominglimit=1 in sip.conf, which is necessary for buddy watching, I cannot transfer calls. On the console it tells me: Call from user '3052' rejected due to usage limit of 1. Can someone please tell me how to get around this problem? (I don't know if this is relevant, but in the phone.cfg file, I have

Hello, On our Polycom phones we can not activate the Buddy Watch feature. When you add or edit a contact, the list ends at "Auto Divert".....I know it is the end of the list b/c the down arrow on the right side of the screen disappears when I get to Auto Divert. When I add <bw>1</bw> manually to the speed dial file it doesn't change anything. The buttons work well for

I've been playing with Asterisk for a few weeks and it's working great. I have a question about getting multi-line receptionist phones working. I was thinking about getting one of these expansion ports: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/phones/ps379/products_data_sheet0 9186a008008883d.html What are people using for receptionist phones that show all the extensions in

I have a Polycom 601 with 3 expansion modules running 2.0.3. We have Buddywatch set up on around 42 users on the expansion modules. We are experiencing reboots on the 601. Today it happened twice after users paged through the phones. The page groups have about 23 phones each. There is a third page group comprising all 46 phones. I'm thinking it may be an issue with changing buddywatch
