Hook up POTS to Obi2182 via Obi212?

THANK YOU!
I tried it and it works!!!!!!
QQ: now I'm just being fancy here, but is there a way to get the landline (123-456-7890) to show up on the right line line keys, so I can skip the "1*" and dial out directly?
Yes that should be possible but is not something I have already tried and tested. It may be several days before I'm able to do that. If you want to try:
1. You need to explicitly select the Obitalk network. See page 75 of the Admin Guide https://www.obitalk.com/info/documents/admin_guide/OBiPhoneAdminGuide.pdf. Probably you'll elect to bind a Call Appearance key to the Obitalk service.
2. Configure the Obitalk Service DigitMap to prepend 987654321* to dialled numbers containing other than 9 digits. (That means that dialling 9 digit OBi numbers will continue to work as before.) See page 217 onwards and the second row of the table on page 222 has an example of prepending.
Of course you would still need to press the relevant LINE key before dialling so that would not take less keypresses than keying, say, a * or # before a number. In which case an alternative to the two above paragraphs is to merely change one part of what I wrote in my previous post.
2182
Physical Interfaces, Phone Port, DigitMap
It begins: ([1-9]x?*(Mpli)
Insert <*:1*>xx.S3| to make it begin (<*:1*>xx.S3|[1-9]x?*(Mpli)
Now keying an initial * will cause the following digits to be dialled on the POTS line.
Change the <*:1*> to <#:1*> if you prefer to use an initial #.

For incoming POTS you only need to change one setting on the 212.
Physical Interfaces, Line Port, InboundCallRoute: ph,ob(123456789)
Replace 123456789 with the 9 digit OBi number of the 2182.
Incoming POTS calls will ring both the phone on the 212 and the 2182. Either can answer. If you don't want the 212's phone to ring just use ob(123456789).
Let me ADD to the post quoted. On the OBi212, the only way I could get it to work was to use the below for InboundCallRoute, where 123456789 is replaced with my OBi1062 number.
ph,PP(ob123456789)
Using ph,ob(123456789) or even just ob(123456789) didn't work for me. No way, no how.
Can I also add additional OBi's to the list without problems? Is there some reason I couldn't get it to work as posted by Drgeoff, or was it just incomplete or a typo?
Thanks.

Yes, an error on my part. The correct forms for routeing to an OBi number are
pp(123456789)
pp(ob123456789)
The pp and optional ob may also be in upper case.

Yes you can add additional OBis to the list. Somewhere the documentation mentions a limit of four destinations in an InboundCallRoute.
