 I am not sure why I didn't think of disabling call waiting, but that
 seemed to work with a Grandstream BudgeTone phone... I'm doing more
 testing now.

Sounds exactly like the same problem. Of course, the $65 grandstreams
allow you to disable call waiting.. The stupid $130+ Polycom's don't. :(

 Are you using 1.4.1?  If your method works, it would be useful to the
 other Polycom users I am sure.
 I love the conf scripts for Polycoms but it is fun chasing down fields
 in the XML sometimes.
 

I'm using a combination of 1.3.1 and 1.3.4 phones. 

I looked at the Admin guide for 1.4.1, and like the others, found no
mention of a call waiting disable.

Nor could Polycom tell me how to disable it.

Well, this is part of a larger problem I'm having. 

I can't get CheckGroup/SetGroup to work as I think it should for my
dynamically added ACD agents. 

The management here is frustrated, and they just want to buy a few phones
that simply can have call waiting disabled.

[Asterisk-Users] Phone Recommendation.

I'm looking for recommendations for a office phone that has the ability to
disable call-waiting.

Needs to be similar in features to a Polycom IP300.

However, here's the problem that led me to try HEAD.

Under stable, When someone in the ACD group takes a call (and the SetGroup

call is disconnected, that ACD agent will not get any new calls. IE: the
SetGroup doesn't go away until the call ends.

If someone in my tier 1 department transfers a call to tier 2.. and that
call runs for an hour, then I've got a tier 1 tech taking no calls for an
hour.

This doesn't seem to be a problem when I use head, but then again.. the

Do the SetGroup and CheckGroup functions behavior differently in CVS-HEAD
vs CVS v1-0? 

When I upgrade to CVS-HEAD my call waiting disable doesn't seem to work,
using:

exten = s,1,SetGroup(SIP${ARG1})
exten = s,2,CheckGroup(1)
exten = s,3,Dial(Sip/${ARG1},15,t)


Anyone know why this is?

[Asterisk-Users] CheckGroup and transfers

2005-03-30 Thread Sean A. Newton

Hello,

I'm using SetGroup and CheckGroup to work around the Polycom's call
waiting issues and calls coming into a queue.. I've found a problem, and I
can't think of a way to fix it.

When someone calls into a queue, and my agent transfers the call to
another person in the company, that agent does not get any more calls 
in the queue. Once the call terminates and the channel data is destroyed,
the agent can get calls again.

Anyone run into this?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] wrapuptime + agents.conf

voip technocrat [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: 

 my aim is every call needs have wrapuptime of 5000 ms but when ever a
 call comes its directly connecting not wating any more.

 your views will be highly regarded

 with regards

I'm using AddQueueMember.. for me, wrapuptime only seems to work from the
beginning of the call, not the end. However, I'm defining wrapuptime in
queues.conf, not agents.conf, since my agents are dynamic.

I know in agents.conf it says that wrapuptime is in MS, but from what I
can tell, if you define it in queues.conf, it's seconds.

If the call exceeds the length of the wrapuptime value, there is no
wrapuptime. So if you set it to 120, and the call only lasts a minute, the
next caller will wait another minute before being connected. Likewise, if
you set it to 120, and the call runs 135 seconds, there's no wrapuptime. 

I'd say that's probably a bug.. At this point it's strictly an annoyance,
but I'd love to hear suggestions from the list.

 Yes, but this way you can only display one single phone number, and not 
 the MSN number for each SIP phone?
 
 For example Henk has SIP/208 and MSN 0031201208
 I would like to display Henk 208 for any call that stays in the company 
 but 0031201208  to the outside.
 

I see.. I can't think of an easy way to do that, short of an AGI script
that checked a flat file or database. You'd pass the local extension to
the AGI and it'd return the MSN number.

 We have two small business that run out of our office.  One business has

 In a perfect world, Asterisk would indicate WHICH line (or group) the

 phone.  The incoming calls would go through a voice mail menu first - 
 different for each company.  (Press one for sales, two for accounting, 
 etc.)  Whatever they pressed, the correct extension would ring, show the 
 caller id correctly, AND indicate which outside line (or group) the call 
 came in on.
 
 I'm running the Polycom IP500 phones.  I think, from Noah Miller's 
 suggestion, that there might be a way to use the line buttons on the 
 phone.  Tie a group of lines to button one, and a group of lines to 
 button two.  I just don't know HOW to do this.  (For the record, I'm 
 using the Zap interface for incoming POTS lines.)
 

I'm running two companies on one * box, however I'm using PRIs, so it's
easy to break out everything. 

We have seperate menus, based on what number you dial, and all that jazz.

One idea if you're sending calls from both companies to one person, you
might prepend something onto the CallerIDName.. 

For example, I have techs that mainly answer technical support calls, but
if sales or billing is not available, they end up with the call.

As such, Tech support calls are tagged with
SetCIDName(TECH:${CALLERIDNAME}) , same with sales, and billing..

Some of us also have DID numbers that ring directly to our desks, I tag
these with DID:${CALLERIDNAME}

Hope that helps...

[Asterisk-Users] IP300 soft key configuration

2005-03-02 Thread Sean A. Newton

I'm trying to reconfigure my IP300 softkeys..

Currently when on a call, I have to hit more and then transfer.. I'd like
make transfer appear on the first screen. Right now there's hold on
there.. and hold is kind of redundant, since the IP300 has a hard hold
button.

I tried doing it in the keys/ section of ipmid.cfg, but it doesn't seem
to work.. anyone done this or something similar? I checked the admin guide
but am confused.. I think I'm supposed to be using the
key.x.y.function.prim thing, but it doesn't work for me..

 You are close... that should be:

 That way when the queue app tries to call the agent, it will have an

 I think the problem is that these functions only work from the dialplan.  In

 the correct line on the phone.  
 
 I was thinking about implementing a queue for our receptionists, but this 
 problem prevents me from doing that, and I haven't figured out any way around 
 it.  Maybe the new 1.4.1 firmware provides a way to disable that horrid 
 call-waiting feature?  Has anybody gotten it to run successfully?

Exactly.. SetGroup was suggested by someone on the irc channel.. I looked
at it briefly. I was then shot down by someone saying to save my effort,
it didn't work.

I suspected as much, due to the fact that the Queue function doesn't use
the exten config for that phone. And it shouldn't.. The phone should be
able to take care of this problem..

I've unfortunately got myself into a bind because I've bought ~35 of
these phones. :eek:

If everyone thinks SetGroup and CheckGroup will work, I will spend the
next days working with it, but I don't want to go barking up the tree of
something that doesn't look like it will work. :|

I'm also interested to try out the 1.4.1 firmware. Just need to procure a

I would very much appreciate it.

[Asterisk-Users] Polycom and call waiting again..

2005-01-25 Thread Sean A. Newton

I searched and read all the relevant posts, but I still don't have a
solution to my problem..

I've got a small queue for tech support calls using AddQueueMember.  The
agents are using IP300's from polycom. 

In my example, only one agent is logged int. 

When a call comes into the queue, asterisk sends the call to the one agent
logged in. The agent answers and is talking to the caller. 

While on this call, another person comes into the queue. Asterisk
immediately tries to send the call out to the Polycom. Of course, since
the Polycom has multiple call appearances (call waiting), the Polycom
doesn't send back a busy, so the call sits on the phone in call waiting. 

Meanwhile the agent is getting blinks and beeps from the phone. After the
timeout specified in queues.conf expires, it dials the agent again.. 

I just need some suggestions on what to try. I don't mind doing the
research, but I'm out of ideas on what to search for.. 

Thanks in advance...

[Asterisk-Users] AddQueueMember and call distribution

2004-10-29 Thread Sean A. Newton

Is there anyway to get Agents (members of the queue) logged out if they do
not answer a call. 

I'm assuming that autologoff doesn't work with AddQueueMember. I've
searched the wiki and google to death... Currently, when a call comes in
to the queue, one member just rings and rings and rings. It never rolls to
another member, and the offending member (not answering) never gets logged
off, so the call just gets stuck until an ultimate timeout.

Thanks for the help...

Here's what i've got setup right now, on my test bed.

queues.conf

[support]
strategy = leastrecent
timeout=25
retry=5
wrapuptime=15
music = default
announce = queue-support

agents.conf

[agents]
ackcall=no
autologoff=15 

extensions.conf

; Tech Support Queue
exten = 1100,1,Queue(support)
exten = 1100,2,Hangup

;tech login
exten = 81,1,AddQueueMember(support)
exten = 81,2,Playback(agent-loginok)
exten = 81,3,Hangup

;tech logoff
exten = 82,1,RemoveQueueMember(support)
exten = 82,2,Playback(agent-loggedoff)
exten = 82,3,Hangup
