EFK for in call DTMF

[SamF]

Hi to all,

We have set up the ability to park a call via in call DTMF so simply press *** will park a call.

We created an EFK to accomplish this to make it "easier".

efk.efklist.2.action.string="$FDialpadStar$$FDialpadStar$$FDialpadStar$"

I was wondering if technically using "dtmf" was th emore correct way of going bu this seems not to work. example:

efk.efklist.2.action.string="***$Tdtmf$"

Is there somehting wrong with my syntex or does asterisk not work with $Tdtmf$ or___?

Technically I think both should work..

Thanks!

Thanks- I understand how EFk's work, my question was pretty specific.

Any thoughts?

Hello @SamF,

without any form of logs we cannot comment.

The next step would be escalating this into our support organisation if the EFK FAQ examples are not sufficient or the logging instructions provided cannot be followed or do not help you.

In order to raise a support ticket you need to work with your Polycom reseller as they need to do this for you.

End Customers are unable to open a ticket directly with Polycom support.

If this is some sort of an Internet discounter providing your MAC address or your Polycom devices serial will enable us to look up who would be able to support you. This may not be who you purchased the Polycom device from.

If the unit is no longer within warranty please be prepared to Pay Per Incident / PPI. This is all outlined in detail here

Please ensure to provide some feedback if this reply has helped you so other users can profit from your experience.
