Call park hanging up too quick

alright i got 2 sip phones.
call park is 700 of course with 701-720 as the pool

if i call another sip phone, i cant hit #700 or *700 like i have read some places. But I can press transfer which puts the other caller on MOH, then i can dial 700 and it will park them at 701.
Good.
But it does not tell me what extension it parked them at.
If i watch my CLI i see it starts to play the 7 to me, then hangs up.

hmmm…any clue ??

do you have “include=parkedcalls” in your context in extensions.conf?

yea include => parkedcalls

i tried it in various different places also. But it must be right or it would not let me park a call at all.

Try monitoring * at the CLI, and you will probably see that your extension has hungup at the phone but asterisk is still reading back the call parking slot.

I found this with Snom’s when you transfer to Parking lot, but the problem is is that the transfer is being done at the phone, and not at the asterisk box itself.

Try using the asterisk unattended transfer instead. ie DTMF ##700, and that worked for me.

If I call a sip phone from another sip phone, I have to hit ‘Transfer’ button, then I have to dial 700 and wait like a second.
Then on the cli it says:
– Attempting native bridge of SIP/502-b9c1 and SIP/500-31df
– Started music on hold, class ‘default’, on SIP/500-31df
– Stopped music on hold on SIP/500-31df
== Spawn extension (outgoing-lines, 500, 1) exited non-zero on ‘SIPPeer/SIP/502-b9c1’
– Started music on hold, class ‘default’, on SIP/500-31df
== Parked SIP/500-31df on 701. Will timeout back to extension [outgoing-lines] , 1 in 180 seconds
– Added extension ‘701’ priority 1 to parkedcalls
– Playing ‘digits/7’ (language ‘en’)
– Stopped music on hold on SIP/500-31df
== SIP/500-31df got tired of being parked

It shows 502 hanging up (the one i did the transfer 700 from)
It goes down and shows it playing ‘7’ but it doesnt finish 0 and 1. I then hangup the call.

Now, if i just pick up a phone, and dial 700:
– Executing Park(“SIP/502-c9fc”, “”) in new stack
== Parked SIP/502-c9fc on 701. Will timeout back to extension [outgoing-lines] s, 1 in 180 seconds
– Added extension ‘701’ priority 1 to parkedcalls
– Playing ‘digits/7’ (language ‘en’)
– Playing ‘digits/0’ (language ‘en’)
– Playing ‘digits/1’ (language ‘en’)
– Started music on hold, class ‘default’, on SIP/502-c9fc

It works fine, i hear the digits and it puts me on hold

Im not sure what your talking about unattended transfer DTMF ##700. I googled around and even messed around in asterisk and on my sip phones, i couldnt figure it out?

btw # key does absolutely nothing on my phones. if i call another sip phone, then i press # we both hear the digit key press and nothing happens…
i dont think it should be like that…?

edit:

found the answer here:
asteriskguru.com/tutorials/b … phone.html

To make the pound key work change the following phone settings:

Use # as Dial Key: YES
Send DTMF: Via RTP (RFC 2833)

edit again:
on gxp2000’s this is under account 1, account 2, etc…not advanced settings like on budgettone-100’s…
