Call Pickup

Group Definition

7 Call Pickup

Asterisk provices the possibility of creating Pickup Groups. Calls to a member of such a group can be picked up by all group members.

7.1Group Definition

Groups are defined in the file sip.conf. Using callgroup=X within the section for user A, this user A is assigned to a group called X. This group pools all call targets that can be picked up by a pre-defined pickup group. To make sure a user B can pick up a call for user A, you have to enter pickupgroup=X into the section for user B. X can be set to values from 0 through 63.

Example:

[10]

callgroup=1

pickupgroup=1

Explanations:

•[10]

Indicates the user for which the following parameters are valid.

•callgroup

Using this parameter the user is assigned to a group within which calls can be picked up by members of a pickup group with the same number (in the example: 1).

•pickupgroup

Using this parameter the user is assigned to a pickup group; the members of this pickup group can pick up calls to any telephone within the group of call targets that have the same number (in the example: 1).

7.2Execution of Call Pickup

To execute a call pickup, i.e. to pick up a call to the group, the user has to select the sequence "*8".

The Pickup() command has to be defined in the file extension.conf.

Example:

exten => _*8.,1,Pickup(10&11)
