"Directed Call Pickup" is not working with different custom context?

“Directed Call Pickup” is not working with different custom context?
example:
Ext 100 with custom context "intercom"
Ext 101 with custom context “std”

When i try to pickup call with the feature code of “Directed Call Pickup”, its not working.
But “Asterisk General Call Pickup(*8)” is working fine.

Pls help us :pensive:

Hi Lal,

What sort of phones are you using?

Whats your dial string your using for Directed Call Pickup?

Thank for your reply,
We are using grandstream 1400 & 1450

And i changed default directed call pickup string from “**(double star)” to “*7(star seven”, its working with same custom context.

Any solution?
Pls help us…

What I generally do is change Directed Call Pickup to *8 and General Call Pickup to **. Users find the later so much easier to remember.

Happy to look at Custom Context, just post up what you’ve got set within there, as its a complicated beast!
