Since COVID-19 is spreading again, we want to keep reminding our members to take precautionary measures such as physical distancing, wearing masks, keeping rooms well ventilated, avoiding crowded areas, cleaning hands, coughing into a bent elbow or tissue etc.
For that we would want to use VOIP Phones in the company as an alarm/reminder for everyone. We would ideally want it to ring every 3 hours and share different precautionary messages with our members.
How can we achieve this?
Need guides or any module etc.
I tried once the Intercom but there is a disadvantage. it enables auto answer for all the calls all the time and when call comes the phone automatically answer the call and put the phone on speaker.
with that solution we will be able to setup auto calls to extensions or group of extensions and after that it will play the announcement on answering the calls ?
With Chan-SCCP-B, there are options to do paging based on Alert-Info, like I documented in the Chan-SCCP-B Wiki at Github. I think the SIP load loses that capability (one of the many things that the SIP load screws with).
I have followed a guide to setup this scenario (Reminder Alert Calls)
Step 1: I have created the Page Group 1009 from Paging and Intercom
Step 2: Add the Extension on which I want to use this Page.
Step 3: Created a dialplan in extensions_custom.conf and playback a file with Reminder alert audio.
