<html><head><style type="text/css"><!-- DIV {margin:0px;} --></style></head><body><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><DIV>Hello,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>thanks for your help and you time,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I tried your statement in my extension like this:</DIV>
<DIV> exten = 777,n, set(TIMEOUT(absolute)=10)<BR> exten = 777,n, dial(iax2/400)<BR> exten = 777,n, hangup()</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If peer (400) answers the call the call persists, no autohangup is made after 10 senconds (absolute timeout), but the if peer does not hangup, it rings for 10 seconds and stops.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>"Are you saying that when you execute the dial application from your AGI <BR>Asterisk dials the peer and when peer answers they get dead air for 13 <BR>seconds before being bridged with the caller?"</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>No, the communication is up we hear each other, but the satament System.out.println("after dial app") which is just after exec("dial.... is executed after about 13 seconds, and sometimes not, the dial blocks the script to continue.<BR></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>How to set the channel variable in the AGI script??</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Many thanks</DIV>
