I have been thinking of sending a page when asterisk dials 911. beep "Attention, 911 has been dialed by " dialing-extension " whose callerID is " callerID.
I think an email would also be appropriate for HR/facility records. Does anyone know how to send an email from the dialplan? I assume I would need an agi for this, but I would want to spawn it off and not affect the call to 911, but also not wait for the call to finish either. So, the second question is, how do I spawn a second call flow without affecting the first? -- -- Steven http://www.glimasoutheast.org "Matthew Crocker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I have enabled outside extension '911' and '11' for emergency service. This way users can either dial '9911' or '911' to get to a PSAP. I would rather have a couple accidential 911 calls than a death because someone forgot to dial a 2nd 9. When people are freaking out they fall back on muscle memory. Many won't pay attention to wether they need to dial 9 for an outside line and then 911 for emergency. > I know every second counts in a real 911 situation, but what about adding a > pause in the call flow.
