Originating a call

amit.kumar · March 28, 2018, 3:02pm

I have a SIP configured on my ATA. Let’s call this channel SIP/ata

I want to make calls from AMI to a cellphone. Here’s the command I am using:

Action: Originate
Channel: SIP/ata
Callerid: Support
Exten: 9XXXXXXXX4
Context: phones
Variable: ActionID=PlayBack
Variable: WhatToPlay=hello.mp3
Variable: WhoHear=SIP/ata
Priority: 1
Async: yes
ActionID: PlayBack

Now I am bit confused on the dialplan.

This is what I have:

exten => _X.,1,Answer()
same => n,UserEvent(BeforePlayBack,ActionID:${ActionID} & ${UNIQUEID} & ${CHANNEL} & ${WhatToPlay} & ${WhoHear})
same => n,Wait(0.3)
same => n,Playback(${WhatToPlay})
same => n,UserEvent(AfterPlayBack,ActionID:${ActionID} & ${UNIQUEID} & ${CHANNEL} & ${WhatToPlay} & ${WhoHear} & ${PLAYBACKSTATUS})
same => n,DIAL(SIP/ata/${EXTEN},60,rT)
same => n,Log(NOTICE, Call back queue result: ${DIALSTATUS})
same => n,Hangup()

But this simply gives me that the channel is busy, which is kind of obvious given that i just made a call to the channel, and i am then using the same channel to “dial”. I don’t really need to dial again as my ATA will by itself dial the extension. Instead I need to wait for the extension to be answered. Now that’s where the question lies, How!

Thanks for reading!

It doesn’t look like the dialplan you have would ever dial your cell phone, perhaps you are looking at the wrong context?

If I wanted to originate a call in your scenario I’d be using my ‘outgoing’ context that has dialplan that would call out to the PSTN.

[outgoing]
exten => _X.,1,NoOP()
 same => n,Dial(PJSIP/${EXTEN}@MyProvider,60)
 same => n,Playtones(busy)
 same => n,Busy(12)
 same => n,Hangup()


Action: Originate
Channel: SIP/ata
Exten: 5551234
Context: outgoing
Priority: 1

I had this setup, but since SIP/ata is my gateway, and I was dialing Dial(SIP/ata, 60, ${EXTEN}), I was always getting busy.

Correct me if I’m wrong but in your example, you have a sip user ata, and an external provider, no?

johnkiniston · March 28, 2018, 6:32pm

Yes my example was to call out from my ATA to the PSTN via my SIP provider.

If you wanted to play a sound to a cell phone you could do this:

Action: Originate
Channel: LOCAL/5551234@outgoing
Exten: s
Context: playback
Priority: 1

[playback]
exten => s,1,Playback(hello)
 same => n,Hangup()

[outgoing]
exten => _X.,1,NoOP()
 same => n,Dial(PJSIP/${EXTEN}@ata,60)
 same => n,Playtones(busy)
 same => n,Busy(12)
 same => n,Hangup()

This still doesn’t seem to have worked… However, it doesn’t fall back to busy. Here’s the full log:

Sorry for being such a bum!

johnkiniston · March 28, 2018, 7:23pm

Console log would be a lot more useful here.

Also I’m writing PJSIP syntax and you appear to be using chan_sip so your Dial will be different than mine, Dial(SIP/ata/${EXTEN}) vs Dial(PJSIP/${EXTEN}@ata)

amit.kumar · March 28, 2018, 7:34pm

Changed the format. Here’s the console

johnkiniston · March 28, 2018, 7:46pm

That to me looks like a successful test call,

I see where you dialed, something on the far end answered and you played back media once the channels were bridged.

amit.kumar · March 28, 2018, 8:39pm

But my cellphone never rang.

johnkiniston · March 28, 2018, 10:02pm

It is possible you got an error back from the PSTN.

Can you attach another phone to the same line the ATA is connected to and supervise the call and listen for errors?

amit.kumar · March 29, 2018, 7:44am

In the FXS port? Let me try

Meanwhile, one thing that seem odd is that as soon as I send the originate command, in just seconds I can see the hangup event. It’s kind of impossible for the call to have been dialled and connected in this small time

johnkiniston · March 29, 2018, 2:59pm

It’s been a long time since I used an ATA to talk to the PSTN but I believe there isn’t any answer supervision so the call will be immediately answered.

amit.kumar · March 29, 2018, 5:57pm

so there’s no way I can make it dial and wait for an answer before the playback happens to the cellphone?

johnkiniston · March 29, 2018, 7:26pm

When you originate a call the dialplan will execute as soon as the call is answered.

You could add in a WAIT() statement or use something like AMD to tell when a human answers.

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Application_AMD

Otherwise I’d suggest trying a pure SIP solution and get rid of the ATA. Your limited to a single channel with the ATA anyway.

david551 · March 30, 2018, 10:55am

If the network operator can or does provide polarity reversal supervision for answer, you can use Digium analogue cards, with that enabled. I’m not sure that cheap VoIP gateways support supervision, even if the network does.

If answer and disconnect matter to you, you should use ISDN, or go through an ITSP that, in turn, uses ISDN.
