Setting up 911 via Xtalk / cell - GV as main service ?

I've set up my Obi110 to use GV and it works as expected, both incoming and outgoing.

I have an Xtalk / cell phone, and wanted to be able to dial "911" by only dialing those digits on my analog house phone, but having the Obi110 automatically route that specific number to the "Line" terminal, which then obviously goes to the cell via the Xtalk.

I didn't want to have to select a line or service first, etc.. and I didn't want to have to end the 911 with an asterisk etc... in case somebody unfamiliar with the setup needs to dial 911.  Just want to be able to pick up phone and call any number BUT 911 and have it go out via GV, while having ONLY 911 go out the "line" connection to Xtalk / Cell.  Hope this makes sense.

Thanks in advance - I'm new to Obi and am still learning what is going on here.

Still haven't figured out how to do this - Anybody know?

By default, an OBi110 sends 911 calls out the LINE Port unaltered.

Great - had no idea.  Sounds like I don't need to do anything then.

Appreciate the info!
