Description

This command is useful within script files (see the run command on page 124) to wait for a specific event before executing the next statement. This command causes the API shell to wait until a call being placed either connects or fails. This command can be used to synchronize a remote controller with the system. The API shell echoes the message “call complete” when the call connects or is aborted.

callcomplete Causes the API shell to wait until a call being placed either connects or fails.

systemready Causes the system to return the message “system is ready” when the system is ready to make a call.
