I can't make the pbxExtension Application work with Obi110's

OK, I'll put that back to ph.

How do I adjust on the office Obi, how many rings it sees before it takes the line off hook, and forwards it to home Obi?

Thanks,

RonR:
The office OBi starts ringing the home OBi immediately without going off-hook.  It will only go off-hook if someone ansers the home phone.

acsscott:
That's perfect.  It didn't seem like it was working that way.  It seemed like the office going off hook right away.  It might have been a delay over the internet making it look that way.  I'll check it again tomorrow.

Thanks for all your help.  I should have used the forum to set this up rather than the pbxextension app.  It would have saved me a lot of time figuring out what was going on.

I'll have to read the guide to learn more.  It's a little more complicated than the stick figure cartoon on the webpage, but because of its complexity it can do almost anything.

RonR:
I just replicated your lash-up here and verified that the LINE Port does not go off-hook until the other OBi answers.

The OBiTALK Service that Obihai provides which is being used to relay the calls from one OBi to the other has been very flaky for at least a week and continues to be so at the moment.  I'm also getting long delays like you were probably experiencing.  When the OBiTALK Service is running properly, it's a pretty quick and smooth transition from one OBi to another.  Unfortunately, Obihai hasn't been communicating with us on numerous problems like this for some time now, so it's hard to tell if/when this and other problems might be corrected.

RonR,

A couple of issues with the home to office pbx bridge.

When the ATA on the Norstar DR5 rings, it rings about 6 seconds later on the phone connectd to the home Obi.  You were correct that it does not take the office Obi off hook until you take the phone connected to the home obi off hook.  This direction seems to work pretty good.

If I pick up the phone on the home Obi, I can't get it to connect to the office obi until I dial a 7 or 10 digit number.  When the ATA connected to the Norstar sees the 7 digit number, it drops the line(Hangs up).

The ATA connected to the office Obi wants commands like:
21 (To call station 21)
HOOKFLASH 2 (To place a call on hold, or pickup a call on hold)
HOOKFLASH * 6010 (To page )
HOOKFLASH * 6461 (To grab an available external line from the line pool)

How do I to this over the Obi's?

Can I setup Speed Dials, and then just do a speed dial when I pickup the home phone?

Thanks,

Scott
