Re: [Asterisk-Users] 2nd Dialtone after answer

2005-06-17 Thread Henry Coleman
Hi all, DID is Direct Inward Dial where the last 3 or 4 digits of the 
dialed number are passed through and are used/translated to call a 
specific extension. (See Centrex)
DISA is Direct System Access where incoming line(s)are auto-answered and 
receive internal dial tone, the caller then has access to the facilities 
of the system.(including calling an extension.)


I hope this clears things up

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Adtran TA 750 FXO Groundstart Mode

2005-06-14 Thread Henry Coleman
I don't have experience of the FXO card but to start a ground start 
trunk you must have a good ground ( 2ohms)
Connecting up a grounding strap around a copper cold water pipe works 
well.

anyone used the 750 FXO card in Groundstart mode? Any special configuration
issues that I should be aware of?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] How to handle one incoming call on multiple lines?

2005-06-08 Thread Henry Coleman
This feature is called  attendant - night answer position. Is it not 
possible to switch the incoming call to an alternate extension based on 
time of day ?

Thanks, but it isn't an option because the Telco is actually

a PBX which is connected to Asterisk which should act as a intelligent

capable of doing

this. Any other option?
   



Hmm, this is a bit of a hack, but it might suit your needs:

- Make sure each of those lines goes into a different extension or context
- Add a delay on each line, like this:

exten = line1,1,Do stuff

exten = line2,1,Wait(2)
exten = line2,1,Do stuff

exten = line3,1,Wait(4)
exten = line3,1,Do stuff

exten = line4,1,Wait(6)
exten = line4,1,Do stuff

Could this help your case ?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] How to handle one incoming call on multiple lines?

2005-06-08 Thread Henry Coleman
Yeh, this is called line hunting  all telco's offer this... you get  
one published number but say 12 lines each line actually has a 
number but just calling the main number will automatically roll-over to 
the first available line in that hunting group. By the way, outgoing 
calls that use the same lines should have hunting groups going in the 
opposite direction (for obvious reasons).
Unfortunatly, for those who want to develop ACD (Automatic Call 
Distribution) 
this mode is useless, if you were to distribute calls based on this 
method the person attached to the first line would get most of the calls 
while the last would be able to put their feet up and whistle dixie


Have fun ..Henry

Isn't it easier to talk to your Telco, and tell them to just ring the
first free line, instead of all 4?

You need to read up.  This exact situation is given in the Asterisk Handbook.

http://www.digium.com/handbook-draft.pdf

In particular, you want GotoIfTime().

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Do I need a ring capacitor to use TDM400P cards in UK

2005-06-08 Thread Henry Coleman

Hi Angus,
If you connect the phone directly to the outside line will it ring ?
The ring from the C.O. provides a  90volt AC (30cps) and is capable of 
ringing a standard phone ( a real two tone gong bell)  My guess is that 
the TDM400 card does not supply enough current to actually do this. Most 
modern phones have an electronic ringer which requires a fraction of the 
power and will work fine.


I don't quite understand the reference to a capacitor unless your phone 
is as old as I am  in which case the phone has 2 x pairs of  wires going 
to the phone plug. The first pair of wires are the voice pair and the 
second pair are connected to the ringer if this is the case  your 
phone will  work normally but simply doesn't ring.
The fix is to connect two capacitors approx  *0.15 uf  250vw *from each 
wire of the voice pair to each wire of the ring pair  (you can do this 
inside the phone jack)
This should not cost much (about a dollar) and can be found in any 
electronics component shop (try Maplin electronics) . Concidering the 
time and effort you might want to buy a new phone.


0.1uf 
Wall Jack

TDM400  | ---||---yellow---0
0---green--0---0
0---red-0--- 0

0.1uf


Hope this helps ...Henry

Hello
 
I have played about with a TDM400 card and plugged in some standard 
analog phones.  I am using the card in FXS mode - for analog 
extensions.  I did notice that one of my phones did not ring and I 
wondered why.  I later read in Paul Mahler's book VoIP Telephony with 
Asterisk that in his section on the TDM400 on page 127 he says In the 
UK, you may need an adapter that provides a ring capacitor, or the 
phone may not ring.  
 
Can anyone confirm this.  Also what is one of those and where would I 
find a good supplier?  I am in the trade so wholesale would be OK.
