Hi list!

I am going to install an intercom module for our home. The intercom can
cater for 3 doors where people can ring the doorbell and the unit can
also remotely open the door (Siedle system).

It would be nice however to know that you are opening the right door or at
which door the people are ringing.

For each door I am able to program a different extension that will be
dialled. Can I have asterisk change the Caller ID that will be displayed
on the phone based on the extension that is dialled? The call will always
be from one telephone line(extension) so this is no option.

I want it like this:

Door:           Extension dialled       Phone display (CID)
Front           301                     Front door (or 301)
Garden          302                     Garden door (or 302)
Gate            303                     Gate

I guess that this is the opposite of what Caller ID was meant for but it
would suit the job that well :)

Thanks!!

Something like this should do the trick:

exten => 301,1,SetCallerID(Front door <301>)
exten => 301,2,Dial phones here

exten => 302,1,SetCallerID(Garden door <302>)
exten => 302,2,Dial phones here

etc.

It works!!!!!!! :) :) :) :)

Thanks for the tip, now I can see who is knocking on which door

Thanks!!!!
