Hi,
I have an OBI110 and GoogleVoice that all works perfectly. On my OBI Dashboard it shows my OBI number under endpoints and a softphone number.
My question is, is it possible to buy another OBI and connect it in another city and add it's OBI address into the OBI Dashboard's Endpoints so that incoming calls would ring both OBI's in either location? ....OR could another OBI (and Dashboard) point to the same GoogleVoice account(s)?
Thanks!
I'm no GV expert, but I don't believe that GV supports "call-forking" to multiple endpoints. However, what you are asking is easily achieved with two OBis.
Set up your second OBi as an independant device with its own Dashboard etc. If GV is on sp1 on your original OBi, then set:
Voice Services > SP1 Service > X_InboundCallRoute:
{ph,pp(ob200123456)}
Where 200123456 is the number of the second OBi.
You can set a delay so the second OBi only gets called if the first OBi does not answer the call say within six seconds in this example:
Voice Services > SP1 Service > X_InboundCallRoute:
{ph,pp(ob200123456;d=6)}
This method uses the OBiTALK network to fork the call onto the second OBi. Call forking to up to four devices is allowed.
ian,
Can you see any way of using d=seconds as a pause. Something like this:
{sp1(5145551212;d=2),sp1(1234)}
Explanation:
Dial number, pause 2 seconds, then dial password.

QBZappy,
The never ending search for the elusive pause! We need Sherlock Holmes
If it did work it would be something like this:
{sp1(5145551212),sp1(1234;d=2)}
The number is dialled straight away, then the password after 2 seconds. To be useful it would have to be in a speed dial. It's worth thinking about, so I will, but I'm not expecting anything much in the way of answers!

The sip signalling gets in the way. You dial the number and a sip INVITE is sent and the logic waits for signalling answer. If it dialed again it would have to send the number by dtmf after the connection. It's not that you couldn't design something to do that but it would be a significant addition.

Does this mean both OBI's will ring when a call comes in
at the same time (and you answer the phone connected where you are at), OR would one have to have a chance to ring (then answer), but if no answer, ring the 2nd OBI?
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!

This means that your original OBi and the second OBi both ring at the same time. Whichever OBi answers the call wins the race and connects to the call. The other OBi would record a "missed call".
QuoteVoice Services > SP1 Service > X_InboundCallRoute:
{ph,pp(ob200123456;d=6)}
This means that your original OBi rings, then after 6 seconds, if it does not answer, forks the call to the second OBi which then also starts to ring, so both are then ringing. Whichever OBi answers the call wins the race and connects to the call. The other OBi would record a "missed call".

Invoke Second Dial Tone in Digit Map
a – d = DTMF 0 – 9
I don't know what the above does. Does this force DTMF tones?
hwittenb,
Thanks for that. Also, I guess that as sp1 probably has two sessions available, then this rule:
{sp1(5145551212),sp1(1234;d=2)}
would send 5145551212 out on the first session and 1234 out on the second session.
Wow another QBZappy idea came in while I was typing this! More to think about :)

Thanks! the first option is exactly what I was looking for.

I believe that section describes how you can play a different dial tone back to the phone when you are dialing. For instance I use that to give a new dial tone after dialing one of the ** codes such as **3.
The logic in the digit maps and outbound routing goes away after by timeout it determines that you have finished and it is time to send the sip INVITE. It doesn't hang around to wait for something else to send by dtmf tones.
Hi Hollywood and welcome. I have been forking calls between two locations via the Obitalk network for quite a while. It is a fantastic feature. Good Luck!
