[asterisk-users] Initial DTMFs arriving too quickly?

[Dululu Ululu]

Hi
I've got an Asterisk box connected to a Siemens Hicom 300 using a Digium
TDM400. The Hicom provides the calling extension as DTMF at the beginning of
the call followed by two *, as in 3425** when 3425 calls my extension, I can
hear all 6 tones if I have a handset connected but using Asterisk's Read
application straight after Answer() Asterisk usually only gets the last *,
sometimes the last 2 **. On one occasion it recieved the last 4 tones (25**)
but that happened once only and I've never received all 6 digits

Is there anything about the answer and/or read applications that leads to
Asterisk not catching the first tones sent? In my dial plan Read directly
follows Answer, so there's no other application that could be taking up
time.

Is there anything I can try in order to make sure I get all 6 tones?

Thanks

Dululu

Re: [asterisk-users] flash transfer problem in asterisk integration with old PBX

[Dululu Ululu]

HiCan you verify whether your PBX expects a hook flash for transfer or if it uses the Recall (or Flash) button on a telephone? Not an expert but I'm told by the real experts that they're different and my investigations 
http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2006-November/171749.htmlshow that the generated signals are different. Am going through the same problem  trying to figure out how to generate the same signal that Recall does (for basically the same reason).
Haven't had a response to my post, will let you know if I come up with anything.CheersOn 11/8/06, Andrea Giuliani

Asterisk, the IVR system on Asterisk answers the call and I can dial anextension (for example 42 that is on the traditional PBX). In the asteriskdialplan I've set to transfer the call using Flash() like in this example:
exten = 42,1,Flash()exten = 42,2,Background(silence/1) wait 1 second for the traditionalPBXexten = 42,3,SendDTMF(42,250)exten = 42,4,Background(silence/1) wait 1 second for the traditional

Here you can see what happen in asterisk CLI console: Executing Answer(Zap/4-1, ) in new stack-- Executing BackGround(Zap/4-1, a_suoni_plink/menu_esterno2) in new
stack-- Playing 'a_suoni_plink/menu_esterno2' (language 'it')== CDR updated on Zap/4-1-- Executing Flash(Zap/4-1, ) in new stack-- Flashed channel Zap/4-1-- Executing BackGround(Zap/4-1, silence/1) in new stack

-- Executing Hangup(Zap/4-1, ) in new stack== Spawn extension (incoming, 42, 5) exited non-zero on 'Zap/4-1'-- Hungup 'Zap/4-1'I've tried the following changes to the dialplan in my example but transfer
still doesn't work:- I've tried to use wait(1) instead of Background(silence/1)- I've tried without Background(silence/1) orwait(1):exten = 42,1,Flash()exten = 42,2,SendDTMF(42,250)
exten = 42,3,Hangup()- I've tried without the Hangup() instructions at the endHas anyone the same problem like me and any suggestions?___

[asterisk-users] Generating Recall/Flash using Zaptel

[Dululu Ululu]

HiI'm trying to generate a Recall/Flash on an FXO (TDM400) connected to a PABX and failing at the moment. I was using the Flash application, which seems to generate a hook flash as opposed to a Recall. Debugging the Zap channel output using a second FXS channel gives me the following
 [ TYPE: Null Frame (5) SUBCLASS: N/A (0) ] [Zap/1-1] [ TYPE: DTMF (1) SUBCLASS: 1 (49) ] [Zap/1-1]when I press Recall on the type of phone I'm trying to mimic and [ TYPE: Null Frame (5) SUBCLASS: N/A (0) ] [Zap/1-1]
 [ TYPE: Control (4) SUBCLASS: Flash (9) ] [Zap/1-1]when I use the Flash application. I have 3 questions which I'd greatly appreciate answers to1) Is it possible to generate the 
 [ TYPE: Null Frame (5) SUBCLASS: N/A (0) ] [Zap/1-1]only using a Zap channel? 2) If it is, is there an easy way to do this, or do I have to delve into zaptel / asterisk code?3) If I have to delve into asterisk code, which areas should I be looking at? As a newbie to the whole zaptel architecture and 
asterisk code base who is on a rather tight schedule if I have to go this route then any pointers as to where I should be looking and what I should be doing would be hugely appreciatedI've searched high and low and can't seem to find answers to any of these questions.
ThanksDululu
