All,

Is there any syntax I can use to put a delay in two lines being dialed?
One is a SIP endpoint, the other is my cell phone. I'd like to have the
SIP phone ring for some arbitrary number of seconds before it is sent
off to the mobile phone. Using something like a Wait() within a Dial()
would be ideal.
[extensions]

exten => 666,1,Dial(Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED])

exten => desk,1,Dial(SIP/deadbeef-a)

exten => cell,1,Wait(15)
exten => cell,2,Dial(Zap/G1/5551212)

Wouldn't just using the Dial timeout option do the same thing more
elegantly?

Or do you want the SIP phone to keep ringing?

No.  Dial(SIP/desk&SIP/cell) would find BOTH phones at the same time.

The original poster wants the desk phone to ring, then after X seconds, KEEP ringing the desk phone, but also ring the cell phone.

Using the Dial timeout would STOP ringing the desk phone then, start ringing the desk phone again and also ring the cell phone.

I don't know about you but it would seem pretty unprofessional to me if my deskphone rang, I went to pick it up, got a dialtone because I did not get to it in time, then before I hungup the deskphone Asterisk rang both the desk and cell phone. Since the deskphone is offhook the call could go immediately to voicemail and then there would be no call when you rushed over to pick up the cell phone.
