Re: [asterisk-users] asterisk and norstar

2006-11-13 Thread Gustavo Berman
Thanks for the response!I've been reading and trying things and I cannot find a way to do a supervised transfer using this topology:pstn line - norstar (ext 123) - ATA - (fxo zap/1) asterisk
Because if I do a flash() and a SendDTMF() to transfer the extension I have to Hungup(), otherwise it never reaches the called extension. So if I do a Hangup() I cannot know of the result of the call.I think that the only way is going to be like this:
pstn line - norstar (ext 123) - ATA - (fxo zap/1) asterisk (fxo zap/2) - ATA - (ext 321) norstarWith that topology I'll be able to do a DIAL() on the other zap (zap/2) and with that know the state of the call.
The problem with this topology is that for 5 lines is gonna be expensive and difficult to find 10 ATAs!If you have any suggestions and configurations they will be very appreciated.Thanks!--

Hello Jorge, and thanks for the answers, but:I don't understand what is a blind transfer and a supervised transfer.I mean, in the topology:- pstn line - norstar (ext 123) - ATA - (fxo zap/1) asterisk
An incoming call from the pstn line is forwarded by the norstar to extension 123 were asterisk is.So asterisk answers the call and play a background message for the caller. But when the user enter the extension number what do we have to do? 
I tried with:Hook flash version:exten = _XXX,1,Flash() ;do a hook flash (like pressing FUNCTION in meridian phone)exten = _XXX,2,SendDTMF(*70w${EXTEN},250) ;sends the code for transfer plus the extension
exten = _XXX,3,Hangup()In this version I can transfer the call using the same channel (zap/1) but didn't find a way for voicemail if the call is unanswered or is busy.Also if its unanswered the call is returned to the extension were asterisk is.
Dial version:exten = _XXX,1,Dial(ZAP/1/${EXTEN})It says the channel is busy.I think that with this version I can have a dialstatus for sending to voicemailSo, a couple of questions:What is a blind and a supervised transfer? (cannot find it in the norstar manual)
Do you have and use this topology? if so, how do you do it?Thanks for the help!!(I'm a linux sysadmin and never before worked with telephones system)-- Gustavo BermanSysadminDepto. Informatica

I'm running asterisk 1.2.8. I would like PSTN inbound
calls to do the following: 



1-once PSTN callers enter their desired extension; they have
to record their name

2-recording then announces that it is trying to locate the
user

3-asterisk calls local extension and announces callers
recorded name

4-local recipient user can choose to take the call, send it
to voicemail or transfer it to another extension



Is this possible in asterisk?? . If it is possible, what is
the name of this function? Is this documented anywhere?

What is the best approach to doing this?



Thanks in advance

[asterisk-users] asterisk and norstar

2006-11-09 Thread Gustavo Berman
Hi there!We have an old legacy norstar phone system m8x24-ds ( dr5 ) and a couple of m0x16. It has 5 external analog lines. It has no auto attendant, and no voicemail. So every incoming call is forwarded to a operator, she pick up the phone, talks to the caller and transfer the call to the right extension.
We are in Argentina, so buying a star talk is out of the question, there is no selling of that in here.So, we want to use * as an auto attendant and voicemail for our 50 extensions.Is there anybody who has done that?
What topology do we have to use? :1) pstn line - (fxo) asterisk (fxs) - norstaror2) pstn line - (fxo/1) asterisk (fxo/2) - ata - (ext. 123) norstaror3) pstn line - norstar (ext. 123) - ata/1 - (fxo/1) asterisk (fxo/2) - ata/2 - (
ext.321) norstaror4) pstnl line - norstar (ext. 123) - ata - (fxo) asteriskAny help please?I'm not a telephone systems specialist!Thanks!-- Gustavo BermanSysadminDepto. Informatica
