Re: [Asterisk-Users] Dialing a # in phone number?

[Derek Conniffe]

I found the answer to the problem I was having with Asterisk, an X100P, 
a Cell Socket with Nokia phone and dialing the # character.  It wasn't a 
problem with the # character at all - the problem was that I had the 
txgain set to -4.5 (which was working well on an analogue phone line).  
I changed this to 1.0 and that fixed it.  The only other thing I had to 
do was put a leading pause into the number being dialed by the X100P to 
give the cellsocket some time to get ready to receive the DTMF digits.

My Dial command for this is:
exten => _08XXXXXXXX,1,Dial(Zap/1/w${EXTEN}#)
(In Ireland all mobile numbers start with 08 followed by 8 digits).
The cellsocket now is working very well and I'm saving myself money 
routing daytime mobile calls through a mobile phone rather than through 
land lines.

Hi,
I have not been successful in working out how to dial a # within a 
phone number.  EG:
   exten => _12345,1,Dial(Zap/1/0868563823#,5,t)
or
   exten => _08XXXXXXXX,1,Dial(Zap/1/${EXTEN}#)

I'm trying to append a # character so that I can use a cellsocket 
(mobile phone to pots adapter) connected to an x100p.  I think that 
asterisk is simply ignoring the # character.  The docs on the Dial 
command dont mention any special characters.  I'd say someone must 
have come up against this before for other services too that require * 
or # characters.

Any help would be great!
Thanks as always,
Derek
