    Is it possible to manually set the hint status of a virtual extension via the dialplan?

    I have an extension that turns my night mode on and off. 

    I would love to be able to manually set the hint to be able to turn on a light for night mode.


  See http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+cmd+BristuffDevstate for more info on this. 

  Here is a part of my extensions.conf that uses this:

  ; Night Mode Activations
  exten => 799,hint,DS/mmgc
  exten => 799,1,Macro(open-close,mmgc,custom/moore-moore-now-open,custom/moore-moore-now-closed)
  exten => 799,n,Playback(beep)
  exten => 799,n,Hangup 
   


  [macro-open-close]
  exten => s,1,DBGet(nightmode=nightmode/${ARG1})
  exten => s,n,NoOp(ARG1 ${ARG1} ARG2 ${ARG2} ARG3 ${ARG3})
  exten => s,n,Set(OpenFile=${ARG2})
  exten => s,n,Set(CloseFile=${ARG3}) 
  exten => s,n,NoOp(Close file ${CloseFile}. Open file ${OpenFile}.)
  exten => s,n,GotoIf(${nightmode}=1?s,Open:s,Close)
  exten => s,n(Open),DBPut(nightmode/${ARG1}=0)
  exten => s,n,Devstate(${ARG1},0) 
  exten => s,n,Playback(${OpenFile})
  exten => s,n,Goto(Return)
  exten => s,n(Close),DBPut(nightmode/${ARG1}=1)
  exten => s,n,Devstate(${ARG1},2)
  exten => s,n,Playback(${CloseFile})
  exten => s,n(Return),NoOp 
   
  On my Polycom, I have a speeddial set up for 799.  One press, and it turns night mode on and announces that, another press and it turns night mode off and announces that..
