How to set a destination to trigger a custom context?

General Help
1

Hello, I am running Trixbox 2.6 with FreePBX 2.4.0. Thanks in advance for any insights you can provide on this question.

I would like to run a command using System() to send some callerID information to an external serial device, but I have been unsuccessful thus far in getting my custom context with the System() command triggered. Here’s what I tried:

  1. Create a context in extensions_custom.conf:
  [custom-ledsign]
  exten => s,1,System(/bin/echo "<ID01><PA>${CALLERID(num)} ${CALLERID(NAME)}" > /dev/prolite)
  1. Assign the context to a misc destination in freePBX:
    description: LED sign
    dial: {custom-ledsign,s,1}
  2. Assign the destination to an application:
    description: Sign
    Feature code: 197
  3. Add the feature code (197) to an extension’s followme group

When I dial from the outside and type an extension that has the feature code included in its followme group, I don’t see any evidence in the log that we executed the custom-ledsign context.

Any help would be appreciated. Here is some of the log. Thanks.
