[Asterisk-Users] Slightly OT - Snom 190 function keys via subscribed config

[Shaun Dwyer]

Hi All,

I realise this is off topic, but its likely the best place to ask!

I sent an email to snom support a few days ago but have yet to recieve a 
response..
Perhaps some one has found a solution to this problem already? I've searched
the mailing lists and google and found nothing useful. I've also read 
Snom's mass deployment
documentation but thats no real help in this case.

Cheers,
-Shaun

Hi

We have bought 5 snom 190 hardphones and I'm in the process of setting 
up some dynamic configuration scripts
for the phones to pull their config from via HTTP.

I'm having problems passing settings to the phone with the '<' character 
in it. I want to be able to set the Function
keys to specifc destinations. In the PDF file that describes how to do 
this, it states that the '<' character is treated
as a comment. Is this only the case when its the first non-white space 
char found on a line, or is it true for any
position in the resulting data being passed to the phone.

I'm currently using snom190-3.56m-SIP-j.bin firmware on the phones.

A sample of the resulting output from the configuration script:

===========

fkey0!: line
fkey1!: line
fkey2!: dest <sip:1000 at asterisk-server;user=phone>
fkey3!: dest <sip:1002 at asterisk-server;user=phone>
fkey4!: dest <sip:1011 at asterisk-server;user=phone>

===========

The 190s seem to ignore all fkey settings. The existing setting in the 
phone that I have from
manually configuring the phone earlier remains and dosn't become 
overwritten.

Also, how can I get hold of the Alpha/Beta firmware for the 190s?

Cheers,
-Shaun
