I have a similar situation, I have an office with 4 lines that are answered in different names and wanted to give users the option to see the status of each line etc.
I have some cisco vip30 with the select buttons and appropriate leds, I was going to set these up on a * box and see how developed the skinny driver is as far as making these buttons/leds let the users select particular lines and indicate status. The lines are mainly analogue on x100 cards Maybe somebody has already worked on this and can give some guidance. The hardware looks like it will do the job, the only question is if we can hack the software to do what we want. craig -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Capouch Sent: Wednesday, 25 February 2004 08:01 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Simulating the "lighted line in use" type of phone I'd like to see if anyone out there might have some ideas on this. I have a customer who wants to move to VoIP, but who has an office full of people who are very conservative about their telephones. They would like the asterisk system that I am proposing to have something analogous to what they have right now, which are plain 4-line analog phones with a light showing any lines in use, and a button beneath that they press to choose an outbound line. Before I tell them that this is a silly retrograde behavior I thought I'd check first to see how others of you out there might handle this same desideratum. Thanks in advance. b. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
