NEED HELP CONNECTING (2) OBI110 FOR REMOTE PAGING ACCESS
ianobi:
It looks like you have worked out how to directly call from #1 OBi to #2 OBi using IP addresses via a speed dial. If you post the speed dial info here, then I will propose a hot line config tomorrow (my time zone!).
I would try this in two stages. Leave #1 OBi as it is for now, connect #2 OBi to the PA as suggested above and test it out using the speed dial, then move on to a hot line config.
ianobi:
Here’s an example of “hot-line” working using direct IP addresses. I would suggest this is the last thing to put in place after all else has been proved to work.
In both OBi110s I have used sp2, mostly because I have used this in previous posts and I'm doing a lazy cut and paste for some of this post . This has only been proved to work between two OBi devices in the same subnet. However, if you have made successful direct IP calls between your two OBi devices (with speech both ways), then this should also work. Just in case, keep a note of your original settings.
#1 OBi:
Service Providers -> ITSP Profile B -> SIP -> ProxyServer : 127.0.0.1
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> Enable : (checked)
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> AuthUserName : 87654321
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> X_RegisterEnable : (unchecked)
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> X_ServProvProfile : B
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> X_UserAgentPort : 5473
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> CallerIDName : Whatever
Physical Interfaces > Phone Port > DigitMap:
(<:@192.168.1.10:5471>)
Physical Interfaces > Phone Port > OutboundCallRoute
{(@@.):sp2}
#2 OBi:
Service Providers -> ITSP Profile B -> SIP -> ProxyServer : 127.0.0.1
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> Enable : (checked)
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> AuthUserName : 12345678
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> X_RegisterEnable : (unchecked)
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> X_ServProvProfile : B
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> X_UserAgentPort : 5471
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> CallerIDName : Anything
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> X_InboundCallRoute:
{(87654321):li}
Security is provided by changing the UserAgentPorts to be different from the standard 5060. This rule {(87654321):li} only allows a device with CallerID of 87654321 to access the #2 OBi line. Other CallerIDs could be added.
I would disable the unused spX – sp1 in this example.
Option:
#2 OBi could also be accessed via the OBiTALK network from any OBi device. Security can be ensured by restricting access to certain CallerIDs. In this case CallerID = Device’s OBiTALK number. For example:
#2 OBi
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> InboundCallRoute:
{(200111111|200222222|200333333):li}
Only OBi devices 200111111, 200222222 and 200333333 are allowed to call into #2 OBi.
Edit: Various changes made to enable use #2 OBi’s Line Port rather than Phone Port.

Ianobi,
I installed and connected Simplex PA system Intercom dail tone to OBi110 #2 phone port. As you described. When I go off hook from the phone connected to phone port on OBi110 #1 and dial 1# spd 1 = sp2(av@10.100.11.5:5061) and call OBi110 #2 it would ring once and pick up with silence. I monitered the Simplex PA system while connected to phone port on OBi110 #2 with test set (linemans phone). I could hear the call come from OBi110 #1 and OBi110 #2 pick up the call, but not connect to Simplex PA. At this stage Caller hears silence. While caller still connected and I'm still monitering the line I can go off hook and open loop and then caller is connected to Simplex PA Intercom dial tone and is able to dial a Simplex page code and page over head. I am controlling off hook condition at this stage with my test set. I started Polking around with Obi110 #2 Tip-Ring Voltage Polarity settings and changed default value to IdlePolarity = Reverse, ConnectPolarity = Reverse. Now I am able to call from OBi110 #1 to Obi110 #2 call is picked up and connected to Simplex PA Sytem Intercom dial tone and also able to dial a Simplex code and page overhead, this is great! But now when I hang up and go on hook from phone connected to OBi110 #1 and go off hook and try to call and connect a second time, third time, etc it rings once Obi110 #2 picks up and silence. No Simplex Intercom dial tone is heard for about 3 min and somtimes longer. Could it be that the Simplex PA system is not getting a disconnect signal from OBi110 #2 phone port?
miteldavid:
Ianobi, sorry I forgot to mention in my last post the setting for UseForPagingOnly was (checked on) during the whole process of testing. OBi110 #2 would pick up and answer under this condition!

We are all learning on this one!

I think that this is likely. The OBi simply stays off-hook. It assumes that it is connected to a simple PA system, that is just an amplifier. I'm guessing your system has some sort of telecoms interface?
Does the Simplex system accept ringing and answer a call in a normal telecoms way? If so it might be we should put #2 OBi back to its default settings (not set for paging) and connect the Simplex system to the Line Port. If this is the case, then this setting needs to be changed to direct the incoming call to the Line Port:
#2 OBi
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> X_InboundCallRoute: {li}
