[Asterisk-Users] How to handle one incoming call on multiple lines?
Hi, I have connected 4 analog public telephone lines to an Asterisk server using a Digium TDM400P card and that working fine. But my 4 lines are connected to each other in a group by the telecom operator. So if someone calls me all 4 lines are ringing. I wrote a AGI script which will handle the incoming calls, but before it decides to answer the call or not the next channel is ringing and the script is started again. How can I create a situation that after the first ringing channel is coupled to a script the other channels are still ringing for the same call?

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

Re: [Asterisk-Users] How to handle one incoming call on multiple lines?
Julian, Thanks, but it isn't an option because the Telco is actually connected to a PBX which is connected to Asterisk which should act as a intelligent answering device during non-office hours. The PBX isn't capable of doing this. Any other option? Regards, Erwin Isn't it easier to talk to your Telco, and tell them to just ring the first free line, instead of all 4? Julian J.

unplug the other three lines This is an after hours ring group or is this enabled after hours only?

Hi, -Original Message- Thanks, but it isn't an option because the Telco is actually connected to a PBX which is connected to Asterisk which should act as a intelligent answering device during non-office hours. The PBX isn't 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 ?

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 ?

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 Erwin Lubbers wrote: Julian, Thanks, but it isn't an option because the Telco is actually connected to a PBX which is connected to Asterisk which should act as a intelligent answering device during non-office hours.

We use it like this if that is what you are looking for: exten = s,4,GotoIfTime(8:30-17:00|mon-fri|*|*?open,s,1) -Greg On Wed, 2005-06-08 at 11:24 -0400, Henry Coleman wrote: This feature is called attendant - night answer position.
