similar to: Polycom, Dial Specific Number on Handset Pickup

Hi All, This is more of a hardware question that an Asterisk question so I hope this is still the correct place for the post. I know with the Linksys phones you can create a hotline by using the dial string of (S0<:number>). I have been trying to do this with a PolyCom phone but I have not been very successful. Does anyone know how to create a hotline phone with a PolyCom?

Is it possible to display the incoming calling number on a handset when trying to pick up a call from another handset? I currently have Call Pickup working using *8, I have also used the PickUp application successfully but I'm not sure how to use these features so the handsets show the incoming calling number and not the number that you have dialled to pick up the call. Regards David

I hope this doesn't already exist, but I couldn't find anything to help. I am installing a brand new Asterisk server, and want to use the Polycom IP331 phones. Does anyone have any steps on how to configure these? I have softphones working just fine, but for some reason I can't find a clear step by step on provisioning the Polycoms. Any help is greatly appreciated! Mark J.

All, I have a Polycom 650 phone, when turned on displays "Checking application". Can any give me some information as to what is wrong? I have copied the CFG files from a 601 phone to work with this 650. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi All, I'm having problems trying to get a TE120P operational in Canada. I keep getting a congestion error when I try to make a call. I'm not sure if my switching, parity, etc is correct. I'm hoping that someone will be able to verify my config. The Telco is SaskTel, with a 10 channel 50 DDI service. Zap show channels show and ztcfg -vv looks ok and the zttool show

Hi All, I have installed Asterisk 1.4.2 and have loaded ztdummy as I have no Digium cards. The problem I have is that MOH will not play. It starts and then stops. asterisk*CLI> zap show status Description Alarms IRQ bpviol CRC4 ZTDUMMY/1 1 UNCONFIGUR 0 0 0 I'm not sure if the above is correct.

All, I'm hoping someone can direct me as to why when someone calls my DID Asterisk tries to authenticate the incoming call on my outbound context. If I remove the GoTalk context I can receive incoming calls. Outbound calls work fine while I have the GoTalk context in place. The error I am getting when someone calls the DID is WARNING[16072]: chan_sip.c:8272 check_auth: username mismatch,

Hello List, This is what I want to do: When a call comes in I want to ring an extension that happens to be loud speaker. The users can the press *8 to answer the call. Is there a SIP device that I can connect to Asterisk as an extension that can accomplish something like this? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi All, I have a Polycom 501 that is behind a NAT. When it registers to the Asterisk server it is using the IP address on the private network and not the public IP of the NAT address. Can someone tell me what I need to do so the phone registerers using an internet address rather than the remote network NAT address. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was

I'm not sure if I have a configuration problem or not. I am unable to dial out. When I try to dial in I can hear the phone ring on the dialling phone but Asterisk does not register anything. In zaptel.conf I have loadzone = au defaultzone=au fxsks=1 In zapata.conf language=au context=from-pstn When I do: zap show channels I get: Chan Extension Context Language

Does anyone know where I can get replacement handsets for the Polycom SoundPoint IP phones? Or does anyone have any they want to sell? From the looks of it you have to buy a whole new phone to get a new handset. My vendor, TriaTechCOA, told me I had to buy a whole new phone to get a handset, which is pretty ridiculous. Maybe there is a more sane vendor I should be buying from? Thanks, -Ryan

While I'm asking about the Polycom ip500, the answers for all phones where mic/handset/headset levels are adjustable would be of interest to many I'm sure. For the ip500, the default value for the handset seems to be voice.gain.tx.analog.handset="3" I've noticed that echo all but goes away when one reduces the mic volume on almost any phone. My question is, for you users

The Telco in Canada is been real painful. I was wondering if anyone has installed a Digium TE1X0P card in Canada and if their Telco was so difficult. The Telco will not provide us a service until they see a FCC or DOC number for the equipment ware are connecting to their service. If have found "FCC Part 68, ANSI/ITA-968-A, Including Amendment A1 and A2 Industry Canada CS-03"

Can someone please help me with a problem that I seem to have with this Polycom 601 phone. It will not see my TFTP server and keeps saying "Could not contact boot server, using existing configuration".

Has any one ever worked with placing idle display images onto the Polycom SPIP331 phones? I have got it working but when the image is displayed the clock is moved to the top of the screen. That is great but it scrolls between the clock and the registered extension(s) . Has anyone figured out a way to stop the scrolling and just display the time? If so could you provide me the configuration

I have a brand new TE120P card that I have installed and asterisk is not starting as I am getting the error: ERROR[5054] chan_zap.c: Unknown signalling method 'pri_cpe' It seems it does not matter what I change the vaule for signalling= to, it always returns it as invalid.

Hi guys, I currently have about 10 Asterisk servers scattered around the place each hosting their own dynamic conference centre. Is there any way that when people join these conference centres on each server that somehow Asterisk bridges the conference centres on each server to form one large conference? Many Thanks David. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was
