I have a solution that allows me to assign a soft key with no problems. However, it seems like a waste the the hard button labeled Voice Mail is not dialing right into voice mail. Is there a known way yo do this? I have tried everything in the manual but it doesn't seem to work. I have IP 500s and I want to be able to use all three display lines for just lines on the phone.
Also, do you know if it is possible to program the buttons along the bottom of the screen like normal soft buttons? And finally... Is there a way to make the system dial without having to hit the Send key after dialing a number? Thanks for the tips! Wiley -----Original Message----- From: Russ Beaupre, P.E.

I assume you can get a phone registered, but make sure dtmfmode is set to inband and set a mailbox= line to get MWI working. -rb _______________________________________________ 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
