Due to changes at the office, I'm finally getting around to setting up
an AA to deal with incoming calls. One of the big changes is that we're
dropping the old alphanumeric pager and will just send pages to our
phones. I've got the outbound greeting message working in a test
context no problem right now, but I'm kind of stuck on how to capture a
DTMF sequence from a user and doing anything with it.
Right now the pertinent DP features look like this:
exten => s,1,Answer
exten => s,2,SetMusicOnHold(default)
exten => s,3,DigitTimeout,5
exten => s,4,ResponseTimeout,2
exten => s,5,Background(greeting)
exten => 1,1,Voicemail(u100) ; Press 1 to leave a message.
exten => 2,1,Voicemail(u6003) ; Press 2 to send an emergency page
exten => t,1,Dial(SIP/person,30,t) ; Ring my extension on timeout
Obviously extension 2 needs to be changed, right now it just leaves a
message in my mailbox. I'm figuring I'll add a new message that says
"Please enter your callback number, followed by the pound sign." and put
that in as a Background() message. The tricky bit that I can't figure
out (without sample dialplans in voip-info) is how to capture the DTMF
the caller provides and send it out via a System() call to an external
application to page the oncall person. As the oncall person will
conceivably change on a regular basis, we can't just hand it out to
customers, unfortunately/thankfully. Thanks for any assistance!
