[asterisk-users] Fax For Asterisk and SendFax question

Dial using a call file like this:

Channel: Zap/2/ww555-1212,60

CallerID: SIP/104

MaxRetries: 1

WaitTime: 60

retryTime: 5

SetVar: LOCALHEADERINFO=Asterisk Test Fax

Application: txfax

Data: /tmp/fax1.tif|caller|debug

 

I don't have the "nuts and bolts" explanation, but Asterisk can do lots of
things with an outgoing call after connection without using the "h"
extension.

thanks Danny,

 

just another stupid question, as far as I know, when a call is answered
after Dial application, it doesn't "execute" other dialplan priorities until
it's hung up, which execute h priority, so how can I make it execute a
SendFAX, or whatever else, when it's answered?

 

thanks again

That's the general idea.  The application is designed to send a TIFF over an
established connection.  You can detect that it is a fax or just assume so.

Hi everybody,

 

I've installed Free Fax For Asterisk in my Asterisk box but I don't
understand how it works as when using SendFax application from dialplan, I
can't find how to introduce destination fax number. 

How this application works? Do I have to call destination fax using Dial
application, detect somehow that it's a fax and then use SendFAX application
specifying FAXOPTs and the path to the fax file?

 

Many thanks
