You might have a better way to do this because this is a little cumbersome.
The auto answer part of this is just too cool! You don't have to put
the phone on the hook and parking, you don't have to worry about
answering or fumbling around and hanging up on the callback, or
anything. If you have the handset in your hands, it calls back, plays
the number in your ear and it's done. If you're on speakerphone, it
calls back and plays the number and it's done. Almost as good as
parking using chan_sccp with the Cisco (it also displays the parking
spot on the park... hmmm... that could possibly be done...).
On my phones, when I press park, I have to press a number (any number
works) and then press park again. Is this the case for everyone else,
or am I missing something? Not a big deal, just seems odd.

Re: [asterisk-users] Polycom call parking feature and Asterisk call parking
IIRC, you need an extension named 'callpark' in your extensions.conf
that calls the ParkAndAnnounce application.
This should get you started:
exten =
callpark,1,ParkAndAnnounce(PARKED|600|Local/4${BRIDGEPEER:5:[EMAIL PROTECTED]|incoming,s,1)
in the CLI:
Show Application ParkAndAnnounce
for usage info.
The third field, in my case Local/4${BRIDGEPEER:5:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
is the channel to announce the parked call slot to. In my case,
extensions beginning with 1xx are the phones themselves, and extensions
4xx are the same phones but will make them auto-answer (like paging).

hope it helps!

In case it just works out of the box, I haven't tried it yet; but the
call park feature isn't enabled on the Polycom phones by default.

Re: [asterisk-users] Polycom call parking feature and Asterisk call parking
Hi Stephen - I want to make parking calls easier for my hard-working users. Is there a way to make the Polycom call park feature work with Asterisk? In case it just works out of the box, I haven't tried it yet; but the call park feature isn't enabled on the Polycom phones by default. If you want to make it even easier, you can make parking work with a single DTMF press. I believe 1.4 has this feature by default using the kK flags for dial(), and setting it up in features.conf. If you're still running 1.2.x, I can provide you with a patch. It's a bit hack-ish, but I've been using it production for over a year now. - Noah ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
