911 Mapping
RonR:
Any VoIP provider that provides E911 service should take care of all the details and you simply dial 911.
If you're going to call the local dispatcher yourself (by having the OBi map 911 to some local number), the dispatcher won't get any information about you regardless of where you or they are located. You'll have to give them all the details verbally.

My local 911 service has a normal number I can call. The number is 440.329.5444
How can I set the OBI110 so that if you pick up the phone and dial 911 it dials that number instead?
Have you try calling that number outside of normal business hours? I called by local non-emergency number after 7:00 pm and got an IVR system, prompting me to press 1 for..., 2 for..., 5 for..... I did test this number even during business hours and got greeted with the IVR. After pressing 5 for non-emergency, I again greeted with another greeting and put on hold or put into a que. I certainly do not want to do this in case of a true emergency. What happen in cases of a hangup or where you are forced to hang up the call before speaking to someone at the non-emergency number?
aveno offers e911 for $0.80 per month and you DO NOT have to purchase a number/DID and you have a reliable VOIP Provider as a backup in case of problems with outgoing GV calls. So for less than $10.00 per year, you can have e911 with address delivery. Individuals need to think through the use of these non-emergency numbers just to save pennies.

Bear with me here because I'm new to all of this but does anyone know how to configure everything in conjunction with Anveo and Google Voice? Detailed instructions would be wonderful if possible. I really want to be able to dial 911 instead of the the number in the phone book which is only answered during the day.
RonR:
Assuming you have Google Voice on SP1, Anveo on SP2, and want 911 calls to go to Anveo, set:
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> OutboundCallRoute:
{([1-9]x?*(Mpli)):pp},{(<#:>):li},{911:sp2},{**0:aa},{***:aa2},{(<**1:>(Msp1)):sp1},
{(<**2:>(Msp2)):sp2},{(<**8:>(Mli)):li},{(<**9:>(Mpp)):pp},{(Mpli):pli}

How do I get to the settings to enter this?
