exten = did,1,Answer exten = did,n,Playtones(ring) exten = did,n,Wait(10) exten = did,n,StopPlaytones() exten = did,n,BackGround(sound file) did = the DID number as presented and note the '1' before Answer. This works for me. exten = 820055,1,Answer() exten = 820055,n,PlayTones(ring) exten = 820055,n,Wait(5) exten = 820055,n,StopPlayTones() exten = 820055,n,[do something interesting from now on] That's my DID (820055) being answered first and then waiting for 5 seconds.

Re: [asterisk-users] Ringing for incoming call
I have a strange suggestion -- have one extension answer the call and dial the extension you want -- then it should ring before dialing the second one.

Actually, that is pretty close to what I do on a *1.6 box and it works.
Here's what I tried on my *1.4 box (in extensions.conf):
[inbound]
exten = 8772709688,1,Dial(Local/s...@cci,15)
exten = 8772709688,n,Hangup()
[cci]
exten = s,1,Set(CallerContext=${CONTEXT}) ; capture context
; document time of call to console
exten = s,n,NoOp(Time is: ${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S)})
; document caller id to console
exten = s,n,NoOp(CallerID is ${CALLERID(all)})
exten = s,n,Set(TIMEOUT(digit)=3) ; Set Digit Timeout
exten = s,n,Set(TIMEOUT(response)=10) ; Set Response Timeout
; create unique call id for this call
exten = s,n,Set(GLOBAL(cid)=${EPOCH})
;
;exten = s,n,Playtones(ring)
exten = s,n,Wait(10)
;exten = s,n,StopPlaytones()
exten = s,n,Answer()
exten = s,n(start),Wait(0.5)
exten = s,n,BackGround(cci/prompt00)
exten = s,n,WaitExten ; Wait for an extension to be dialed.
I tried both with and without the Playtones(ring) / StopPlaytones()
lines.
Here is what I get from the CLI:

This all looks as expected to me, but the caller hears nothing until the
BackGround statement is executed. There still is no ringing back to the
caller.
Thanks!

Re: [asterisk-users] Ringing for incoming call
If you try just this, what does the caller hear? It should be ringing for the first 20 sec, and then maybe the congestion tone afterwards. exten = s,1,Wait(20) exten = s,n,Hangup You shouldn't need/use the Ringing() command at all, as the initial ring before your system answers would be generated by the provider. If wait ... answer doesn't work for you, you'll have to provide more output from the CLI and tell us more about your configuration.
