[Asterisk-Users] Use of Alert_Info with C7960?

[Rich Adamson]

Okay, give me a clue how to do it. The phone (sip v6.2) currently has
a ringer called "Old Style" that plays from the front panel. How do I
code * to play that ringer?  (I can't seem to make anything other then
the <Belcore-*> stuff work.)
