Caller ID format

<< < (2/5) > >>

Smee,

It is possible to transform incoming CallerID. For example:

Voice Services > SP1 Service > X_InboundCallRoute:
{(<1:>@@.):ph},{ph}

An incoming call with CallerID of 12345678912 will have the leading "1" removed before the CallerID is sent to the phone by the rule {(<1:>@@.):ph}.

An incoming call with CallerID of 2345678912 or any other CallerID not starting with "1" will be sent to the phone unchanged by the rule {ph}.

Wow, thanks.  This certainly makes the display on my Uniden phone display to where at least it is readable.  After applying the above, I now see my number formatted as 123-456-7890.  Many thanks for the tip!!  I applied it to all three of my Obi100s.  ;D

So how would this look if I removed the "1" but added the "**1" to show the line number the call came in on?

I was looking at your post on "Caller ID format": http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=6045.msg38612#msg38612, and wanted to combine the two ideas.

GregoryZ,

Glad to see that are still with us - it's always a pleasure to hear from you   :)


It should be quite easy to achieve what you describe. The original rule:

Voice Services > SP1 Service > X_InboundCallRoute:
{(<1:>@@.):ph},{ph}

The "1" on the left of the colon is replaced by the "nothing" on the right of the colon. This rule will replace "1" with "**1":

Voice Services > SP1 Service > X_InboundCallRoute:
{(<1:**1>@@.):ph},{ph}

For sp2:

Voice Services > SP2 Service > X_InboundCallRoute:
{(<1:**2>@@.):ph},{ph}


My very cheap dect phones seem ok with displaying "*", but there have been reports of phones that will only display numbers for CallerID.

The OP in this thread wanted 10 digits so his phone would display the format xxx-xxx-xxxx. I'm not sure how the CallerID will be formatted for a number such **12345678912. I think it will vary depending on the type of phone. Mine just outputs the string **12345678912 with no dashes or spaces. However, I am using UK style CallerID, so it would be interesting to hear how this works with North American style CallerID.
