obiEXTRAS

I have a script setup that loads all my google contacts in to my Asterisk RPI, and then have asterisk use that.
Hairpin from the Obi to the asterisk box and back to the ph* ports.
Works well.
TidBit5150:
So far, not impressed with the OBiExtras. The importing of Google Contacts works only FAIR. It imports Contacts, yet sometimes it says "mob" after the name, and sometimes it doesn't. There needs to be a way of "Deleting" the contact database then uploading a revised contact list. It also does not show numbers for contacts that are listed as "Other" or a "Custom" field. Name area comes up as "Unavailable", which is NO GOOD when you have multiple numbers for a contact.
NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL
MOCadmin:
I've been using ObiExtras on OBO1022. No hiccups other than the following inquiry.
I know you can receive faxes, but how do you send faxes?

Obi10x2 phones play no part in the sending or receiving of faxes. Except for acoustic couplers which died out soon after the dodo there is no way to usefully attach a physical fax machine or a software equivalent running on a computer to the phone.
You send a fax in exactly the same as you would if you did not have an OBi phone or OBiEXTRAS.
SupTeamGuy:
That is correct. The OBi1000 series, with OBiEXTRAs's Fax-to-Email, is just that, incoming faxed document (from a fax machine), to your Google Voice account phone number that you designate for OBiEXTRAs (on SP1, or SP2, or SP3, or SP4, or SP5, or SP6), will be directed to any email inbox and view as .pdf format.
For outgoing faxes, you must use a OBi2 series ATA Adaptoer, such as OBi200 device, or OBi202 device. Connect the fax macine line to the phone port and utilize Google Voice service. And also you can use the OBi200 device to signup for OBiEXTRAs for Fax-to-Email.
Best,
SupTeamGuy
