Timeout of conversation (Event Handler)
From Zenitel Wiki
Using the $ST (Set_Timer) message.
Timeout of incoming calls to one specific station:
In AlphaPro, go to Exchange and System -> Events, press Insert and create the following events:
Event 1 - Start the timer on incoming call (180 sec).
| Event Owner: | The station |
| Event type: | 07 - Conversation Incoming |
| When change to: | ON |
| When related to: | All |
| Action: | $ST L%1.dir w300 L%2.dir |
Event 2 - Cancel conversation when timeout.
| Event Owner: | The station |
| Event type: | 21 - Event timeout |
| When change to: | ON |
| When related to: | All |
| Action: | $C L%1.dir |
Event 3 - Stop the timer if the conversation cancels before timeout period has expired.
| Event Owner: | The station |
| Event type: | 07 - Conversation Incoming |
| When change to: | OFF |
| When related to: | All |
| Action: | $ST L%1.dir w0 L%2.dir |
If the conversation timeout should apply for outgoing calls as well, add the following events:
Event 4 - Start the timer (180 sec).
| Event Owner: | The station |
| Event type: | 08 - Conversation Outgoing |
| When change to: | ON |
| When related to: | All |
| Action: | $ST L%1.dir w1800 L%2.dir |
Event 5 - Stop the timer if the conversation cancels before timeout period has expired.
| Event Owner: | The station |
| Event type: | 08 - Conversation Outgoing |
| When change to: | OFF |
| When related to: | All |
| Action: | $ST L%1.dir w0 L%2.dir |
If the timeout should apply to a number of stations the easiest way is to assign the stations concerned to a UDP group, and then set the UDP group as Event Owner instead of the 'The station' in the above events.
