I have not applied the 1.4 backport to my system, so I haven't used DEVSTATE, but this page appears to show how to do what you want: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+func+Devstate That page also has a link to the backport. -James On Thu, Sep 4, 2008 at 11:34 PM, Lee, John (Sydney)

We've used the devstate backport with the snom phones for this. The buttons toggle log in and out with one and pause/unpause with another. We use the astdb to store current status and add/remove/pause/unpause queue member functions. Works great On 9/6/08, James Sneeringer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

I believe that this is what I need to enable more than one buddy icon? Can you please point me in the right direction. Only the polycom screen, I can only see 1 buddy icon despite having 2 speed dial entries. I have been able to successfully turned on presence (which is the term used

I'm using a similar feature on 550 and 650 phones, also running 2.2.2. I've never used the attendant option to do it, though, so I'm not sure how it differs from what I'm doing. Instead, on the phones that are allowed to do this, I have the following in their XML config. You could just as easily

It's not perfect, because it doesn't display DND or queue login/pause status, but it's better than nothing. James, on a different note, is it true that at this stage, we can never get any queue login status/light on Polycom phone? I posted a query a few days ago but I have got 0 reply. Any

I believe DEVSTATE() in 1.6 (backported to 1.4 in various places) will let you arbitrarily control BLF, so you could control it in the dialplan when an agent logs in or out (or pauses, or whatever). Separately, you might be able to use sipsak (http://sipsak.org/) to construct a SIP message that

Sorry, needed to add one more note. To clarify, my agent phones have a speed dial assigned for their login, and another to pause/unpause. I could then use DEVSTATE to enable or disable the light next to their speed dial button based on their status. I can't use it to update anything on the LCD
