Pick up Groups

Hi,

I have recently set up asterisk with a siemens isdx connected via a h323 link. to do a pick up on the siemens box its **3 so i’ve made it the same on asterisk. My question is if a phone on the siemens box rings can i pick it up from my asterisk extn

Thanks

Dan

I would think that you may need to put the call pickup code in asterisk to be something else, I like *8, then in extensions.conf put **3 or whatever the other code is and send it out of your h.323 trunk to the siemens system
exten => **3,1,Dial(DEV/trunk/${EXTEN})

my ext.conf is

exten=6050,1,VoiceMailMain
exten=7000,1,Goto(voicemenu-custom-1|s|1)
exten=_XXXX,1,Dial(H323/${EXTEN}@172.22.21.5)
exten=_9XXXXXXXXXXX,1,Dial(H323/${EXTEN}@172.22.21.5)
exten=9XXXXXX,1,Dial(H323/${EXTEN}@172.22.21.5)
exten=
**3,1,Dial(H323/${EXTEN}@172.22.21.5)

i can dial all extns on the siemens and dial out but whenb i dial **3 a reorder message come up
