[cisco-voip] Sending a tone after pickup, before voice

[Madziarczyk, Jonathan]

Yeah, the touchtones would be a great idea.  The question is, can ATA's
participate in a multicast stream?

 

I'm not really familiar with CUAE, I can spell it... What would this do
for me?  IPCC is an interesting idea, but I'm not sure it would be the
best solution for us, but maybe as a last resort.

If the ATAs can participate in a multicast stream then this could easily
be accomplished by a 3rd party product, CUAE, or even possibly a good
IPCC script.   You could also have a script that records the message,
then plays it back via 5 separate calls to each PA where it plays the
recording (inserting the tone beforehand).

To send a tone, just dial some digits that.  For example, we dial 8100,
then 0, then 91379137.  8100 is the extension, 0 tells the paging system
to turn on, and then 91379137 plays over the intercom to get attention.
We set a speed dial at the front desk that they use to page someone.

These are the kinds of random requests I get :-)

 

Currently we've got 5 individual buildings with 5 separate PA systems
(tied to VoIP using 5 ATA 186 and 5 Viking RAD-1a devices to pickup on
ring).  Currently they are used only for in-house paging (a 4digit
extension on the ATA with a translation pattern, unique to each
building, tied to the phones for 1digit dialing)  They now want to be
able to call in from a central place and connect to all PA systems
simultaneously.  On top of that, they want to play a loud tone of some
kind over the PA before the Central voice statement comes over the PA.
Think navy whistle followed by "now hear this, now hear this, everyone
report to location X for a briefing".

 

Ideas?

 

I'm pretty sure a broadcast hunt group won't work since the first RAD1A
to pickup will stop all the others from picking up (unicast, not
multicast).  If this can't be done with build in Cisco CUCM options, can
something like this be attained via a 3rd party product, like Berbee's
product?
