DTMF and running a feature

Asterisk Asterisk Support
1

Hi All,

I’ve got here a beginner problem.

Although I’ve read many, many Guides and HowTos I’m not able to solve the problem.

Here the background:

  • Asterisk makes a call (with use of .call File) and plays a sound (message).
  • The other side recevices a call and submits the fact of hearing the message by pressing a key (doesn’t matter what key) on the phone.
  • Asterisk detecets pressing that key and runs a local script.

I’ve tried many approaches, but I cannot get the message line “-- Feature Found: test exten: test“. The only thing which I get is DTMF begin, DTMF begin passthrough, DTMF end received, DTMF end accepted, DTMF end passthrough and that’s it:

I think I’ve tried everything (that’s why you see so many “;” there) - but no clue, why it won’t work…

Have you got any ideas? My Asterisk version is 1.8.32.1.

Thank you in advance!

Best regards,

The use of Macros as features conflicts with the specification.

The statement of requirements doesn’t require a bridged call, so I don’t understand why you are using features.

Hi David!

Thank you for your answer!

I don’t have to use Macros - I’ve also tried with:

and many variations of System-Call, but without any effect.

But if I don’t need features to run a script after DTMF, how can I do it in other way?

Thank you in advance!

Best regards,

Jaracz

The requirement as specified requires an Originate target extension that does:

Playback
Read
GotoIf
application specific code.

Awesome, works like a charm!

Thank you very much!
