You're basically looking for hotline functionality. I'm using Sipuras for my FXS ports, and they can be configured to dial a phone number upon pickup. I played with that before, and the call was established so quickly that I had to add a "Wait" instruction in there so the receiver could make it to the ear :)
If you're using zap channels for FXS, you could do something line (in zapata.conf): context => instantpickup immediate => yes channel => 10-60 And then in extensions.conf: [instantpickup] exten => s,1,Answer exten => s,1,Wait(1) exten => VoiceMailMain() (or whereever you want to go from here) > -----Original Message----- > From: Greg Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, June 17, 2004 6:53 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] trying to set an internal ivr > > > On Thu, 17 Jun 2004, PAZ wrote: > > I'm trying to implement an IVR for internal use for the > enterprise I > > work for, but the goal I'm trying to reach is that the main menu of > > this IVR present itself to the user after 5 seconds he picks up his > > extension (and only if the user doesn't press any key, off > course).
