[Asterisk-Users] Re: FAX with Asterisk

2005-08-29 Thread Mick Hastings
Hi Nahid,

I think youll want a fax on-ramp and off-ramp on your asterisk boxes instead 
of trying to send a fax using VoIP (SIP). I believe it is possible but not 
recommended. There are technical reasons for this that you can find online 
in many places.

Basically asterisk answers the fax and sends it to your fax program. the fax 
progam receives the fax, turns it into a TIFF file and emails it to the 
other end of your network. then the process is reversed and the TIFF is 
faxed via software out the T1 at the other end.

This process has a standard called T.37. Im not sure if there is currently 
support for this in asterisk or not (search the archieves) but its what I do 
with our Cisco router and a very neat little windows fax program called 
T37FSP from Sandler Consulting. You could prolly use the free version for 
testing.

hope this helps,
cheers,
Mick

[Asterisk-Users] Digi QuadMicro ISDN adapter with asterisk?

2005-08-29 Thread Mick Hastings
Hi all,

Has anybody used this card (Digi QuadMicro) with asterisk or can anybody 
tell me the likelyhood of it working out OK?

I need a multiport BRI adapter for use with asterisk in Japan and this card 
seems to support INS64 (Japanese BRI standard) and also CAPI 2.0.

here is a link to the datasheet: 
http://www.digi.com/pdf/prd_mca_datafirequad.pdf

Ive only used asterisk with Cisco SIP gateways so Im not sure if this is 
enough information.

thanks again for any help,
cheers,
Mick Hastings

2005-08-29 Thread Mick Hastings
Hi Clive,



Thank you for your response to my posting.



It looks to me that the intel board is the same as the dialogic board



Can you please tell what that means? I haven't worked with any BRI cards 
before so I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.



Is / was the dialogic board compatible with asterisk?

Using CAPI drivers?

Can you please point me in the right direction for more information for this 
card?





Im sure you get the picture here, I really don't know where to start J and 
really appreciate your help.



Thanks Mick

[Asterisk-Users] Japanese ISDN BRI card for asterisk (INS64) where to start?

2005-08-28 Thread Mick Hastings
Hi All,

I currently run asterisk in our office (in Japan) and use a cisco PRI 
gateway for connection to the PSTN. I would like to setup some more systems 
for our smaller offices (in Japan) that would use BRI and preferably using a 
PCI card in the asterisk box and not a seperate Cisco gateway (expensive). 
HOWEVER, Japan has this INS64 protocol for their BRI lines and im not sure 
what cards are available that are compatible with asterisk and Japanese BRI 
(INS64). I know that it is supported by Cisco (like they support Japanese T1 
PRI (INS1500)) but it just adds to the cost and is another piece of 
hardware.

I tried searching the archives and only found a few references to INS64 and 
it didnt sound too promising. I then searched the net and found this 
Intel/Dialogic board:

BRI/80-PCI BRI/PCI Series High-Density ISDN Basic Rate Interface Boards
(for details see: http://www.intel.com/network/csp/products/7007web.htm)

It seems to support INS64 but appears to only have windows drivers. Has 
anybody used this cards with asterisk? is it possible? or even likely that 
it would be supported by any of the linux ISDN drivers?

I also noticed some other mentions of 'ISDN protocol converters' What are 
these specifically? (im guessing they convert between US BRI standards and 
INS64), how much are they? where do I get one?

Has anybody out there got an asterisk system running with INS64 connections 
to their box? If so could you please let me know how you are doing it, else 
can anybody offer any information as to where I should start to look for 
more informaion this topic?

I really appreciate the help.

cheers,
Mick Hastings

2005-04-14 Thread Mick Hastings
Hi Nabeel,

I also wrote a siliar script using the same tools, I found I still had a few 
problems with it (Im also a terrible programmer) and dont use it anymore. 
However, on a windows system you can try the following 2 programs and get 
integration with outlook and/or cut and paste dialing.


CroomeAsteriskWinManager
IPSwitchBoard


I use these now and theyre great, they'll work with any(?) SIP phone too, 
not just Cisco.

cheers,

 Hi.

 I have lousy programming abilities, but put this together this evening. 
 It's
 a tcl script using Expect that dials a number on a Cisco 7960 from the
 command line. Note you need to have privileged set on telnet_level in your
 TFTP config files.

 Why is this necessary, you might ask? I find it easier to copy and paste
 than read and dial :)

 Now, can someone with better programming abilities convert this into a 
 GUI,
 maybe integrate with Outlook? :p

 Note: This script assumes the phone is idle and on-hook. It would be
 possible to check in the script, but that's more work than I intend to do.

[Asterisk-Users] Re: SIP Deadlock problem.

2005-04-14 Thread Mick Hastings
Hi Eric

I started getting these 'WARNINGS' (WARNINGS are not ERRORS) when I started 
using the manager interface (IPSwitchboard / AstWinManager). I sometimes 
also get some extra delay when I see these but havent determined if its 
related.

If I disconnect my manager program the warnings dissapear, not sure about 
the delay, i still need more testing.

I read somewhere on the news groups that its not a big problem but if your 
getting delay maybe it is, theres more info there if you go digging for it.

not sure if this helps you much but good luck and be sure to post your 
findings back here if you fix it.

cheers,
Mick

[Asterisk-Users] external access to voicemail?

2005-04-08 Thread Mick Hastings
Hi all,

I currently have a setup where my users dial in to a dedicated DID that 
sends them to VoiceMailMain(). this works fine except for the fact that 
nobody can remember the number! (they already have to remember the main 
number, their personal number, fax number and mobile number)

What I would like to setup is a way of people checking there own voicemail 
by dialing there normal extension DID, waiting for it to go to VoiceMail() 
and then keying in a secret code (or maybe just * as they are required to 
enter a password later anyway) that switches them to VoiceMailMain() for 
checking their messages.

Has anyone already done this? I know it is quite common on home answering 
machines.

I guess its just a matter of checking for DTMF whilst playing back the 
unavailable message or something? Can this be done without being integrated 
into the VoiceMail() code?

cheers for all the help,
Mick

[Asterisk-Users] Re: Delayed dial under Asterisk ?

2005-04-08 Thread Mick Hastings
Hi Robert,

I just set this up today for dialing international using a calling card 
account.

usually we call 0120 982 433
wait for voice prompt
then dial the number

i set it up so the user only has to prefix with 011 then the number like 
this:

[brastel]
exten = _011.,1,Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED],,TM(BRASTEL^${EXTEN:3}))
exten = _011.,2,Hangup

[macro-BRASTEL]
exten = s,1,Wait(2)
exten = s,2,SendDTMF(${ARG1})

this way the user dials this: 011 61 3 9556 7787

and asterisk does this:

dials 0120 982 433
waits for connect
then waits 2 seconds
then sends 61 3 9556 7787

seems to work for me just fine.

cheers,
Mick

[Asterisk-Users] voicemail patch for forcegreetings and forcename?

2005-03-29 Thread Mick Hastings
Hi Folks,

I am running asterisk 1.0.7 with no probs.
Howerver, during my testing stages I used CVS head and was using the 
forcegreetings and forcename feature. I am now setting up a production 
server and want to use these features on the stable version but its not 
there?

Is there a patch I can use?  or some other way to implement it?

I tried using the app_voicemail.c from CVS head with stable 1.0.7 but it 
wouldnt compile :(  This might sound dumb to those in the know but im no 
programmer.

any help would be appreciated, I would like to go into BETA testing today if 
I can get this resolved.

cheers,

This is probably really dumb but here goes:

'Dial' command for testing. I have installed asterisk on a new machine and 
copied over the .confs and started it up. It all works fine. But when I try 
to initiate a call from the CLI using 'Dial' it just says:


*CLI Dial

2004-12-06 Thread Mick Hastings
Hi Norman,

I played with this for ages also. I think there is a small step missing from 
the wiki that needs explainantion.

Prior steps in the SJPhone setup:

1/ click on the Options button
2/ go to profiles tab.
3/ click on 'New'
4/ create a new profile called 'asterisk' with profile type 'Calls through 
SIP proxy'
5/ use this profile for your asterisk connection

follow the wiki from there. :)

hope this helps, I edited the Wiki to show these steps in case somebody else 
out there has the same problem. I hope this is OK with everybody?
