Title: Automatic Obi to Obi calling Post by: Gavo on January 16, 2012, 02:03:49 am Hello,
A customer of mine is interested in a "dedicated line" between his workshop and his office. Both sites have a broadband connection. What I was wondering is can the off-hook action of a phone be used to trigger a call, i.e. lift handset at site "A" - Obi recognises this and dials the number of the Obi at site "B" and vice versa. If this isn't possible then I guess it will need to be done via a dialling plan or indeed program a memory button on the phone with the Obi number.

example: just pick up the phone and press 2, after a couple of seconds it will ring the other Obi. Or you can set the Obi to dial a designated number when no input is detected. Not sure what the default wait time is but it can be changed.

Yes, it's called Hot or Warm dialing. The OBi will automatically dial a particular number immediately (Hot) or after some period of time (Warm) after the handset goes off-hook. Hot: Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> DigitMap : (<S0:**9200123456>|...) Warm: Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> DigitMap : (<S4:**9200123456>|...)
