Possibility to Create Autodial feature?
ShyGaz:
Greetings!
I currently have an Obi202 with Google Voice on SP1 and SP1 (2 different numbers).
I was wondering if there was any possibility to implement either of the two scenarios below:
1. Ignore the prefix 9 when the customized phone I have dials upon pickup
2. Create a feature in which obi autodials a specified number when the phone is picked up.
I've searched these forums and have also consulted the guides available at (http://www.obihai.com/OBiDeviceAdminGuide#_Toc367543131) and (http://www.obihai.com/docs/OBi-DigitMapCallRoute-Tutorial-v1-1.pdf), however I think this process may be a bit over my reach. Specifically, I've tried experimenting with the Digitmap/Outbound call rules, but to no avail.
Any help is very much so appreciated!
Thank you very much!

>>1. Ignore the prefix 9 when the customized phone I have dials upon pickup
The OBi dial plan (digit maps and outbound call route) can modify the digits dialed. The syntax <9:> would match 9 and replace it with :nothing, routing the number dialed without the 9. You would need to integrate this into your dial plan.
Or maybe you can customize your phone to not dial the 9.
>>2. Create a feature in which obi autodials a specified number when the phone is picked up.
Page 199 in the OBi Admin Guide http://www.obihai.com/docs/OBiDeviceAdminGuide.pdf suggests that <S0:1234> is the syntax for a hotline that dials 1234. I have not tried this.

A hotline dials the number immediately the phone goes off-hook. Changing that 0 to another number gives a warmline. Eg <S5:1234> will dial 1234 five seconds after the phone is taken off-hook unless a digit is dialled during that 5 seconds. My Obi110 has been configured with such a warmline for more than 2 years.

First of all, thanks for the replies everyone!
So, if I wanted to go that route, would I just add a new user-defined digitmap, make the value <9:>, and click save? Would I have to refer to the label anywhere else in the expert config panel. Thing is, I tried adding a new digit map value of <9:>xxxxxxxxxx but when I tested it the phone did nothing.
Thanks again!

Try moving the '>' to give <9:xxxxxxxxxx>
