Call Thru Pin

Hello,


I am wanting to use alternative phones to call the pbx and enter the callthru fuction.

However, I haven't found a way to add this to our options menu. Such as when were calling into the pbx, press '8' for callthru fuction.

There is the option to directly tie a phone to it by caller ID recognition, but other than that I don't see any other option.

Can you help me with this?

Thank you,

Chad

I accomplished what you are talking about by looping a call back. I signed up for a Free World Dial Account and set it up as a PIN call in number. I then created an extension "1234" which rang to 999@fwd.pulver.net. I then set my ring group to ring extension 1234. I hate doing this because it is just one more place to introduce latency, etc., but it worked.
