Hello,
could somebody explain us how we can trasfer calls from extension to another extension using regular telephony keys?

There is a table of fast digit to do the most useful function by telephony keys?

Thank you in advance if you would help me and thousand thanks to Nick Galea for his performances.

ciao

Hi Costellazione,

Actually each phone should have a transfer button/function. For example the Grandstream GXP 2000 has a transfer button to do a blind transfer. With attended call transfer you dial the other extension first on the second line of the phone and then connect them.

With SJphone (software SIP Phone) there should be a button to transfer calls. Note that 3Cx Phone does not have a transfer function yet (we are working on it, focusing on phone system first) and X-lite requires a paid upgrade to do a transfer.

Hope this helps. And thank you for the heads up! :) Actually its the development and testing team who should get the credit :)
 
Thank you, Nick.

My question was made just to understand if your 3cx pbx server accept some type of special input as other pbx do.
In example, Asterisk accept special digits (##) to transfer calls from any kind of telephon to other extension.

This simple (I know this is not simple programming), if not already exist, would be implemented because very useful.
This is my thinking. :)

Hi Costellazione,

Makes sense..... At this point we do not have such a function but it makes sense and we will definitely consider it for future builds....!

Thanks for the suggestion!
 
Help with Transfer

I am able to do an attended transfer but have not figured out how to do a blind transfer with a Linksys 942 or 962. Any suggestions?
 
I have a Linksys SPA962 and a Cisco 7912G and when you want to transfer a call on the SPA962 you have in the lower right corner a softkey with the tekt transfer. When you press transfer, you get a dialtone, dial an other extension nr, wait for connection, en press transfer again to compleet the transfer, both partys have now a connection and your out of it.

see log:

when I look on the web page op the phone, tab region, under "Vertical Service Activation Codes", you see the "Blind Transfer Code: = *98"parameter. Maybee it wil work alsoo if you dial *98 to transfer the call, I haven't tried yet.

For the Cisco 7912G you have to press in the lower right corner More to come to the softkey Transfer.

I hope it wil work for you.

Not bad he for a newbee.

I just tried to tranfer a call with *98, <dialtone>, dial extension nr., and it works as well.

Pirkaiia
 
I found another way to do it also

On the Linksys phone there is a Transfer Line soft key that comes up when you do this.

Answer call and put it on hold
Pick up spare extension and dial other extension
While it is ringing there is a Xfer Line button and you hit that and away it goes.

Thanks,

Paul
 
well but this ## function well be posted on future beta releases?
or it's already programmed in the actual beta version?

let me know because with voice gateways as Grandstream HT386 I'm not able to complete transfers between extensions.
 
UP!

Please dont force me to installa asterisk instead of this super PBX.
noway to transfer calls from voice gateways as grandstream HT386??

sigh
 
Grandstream Gateway Transfer

Can you detail the procedure and what type of phone you are using? I am trying to think back and I seem to remember having to change a parameter in the Linksys phone to allow Blind Transfers. Also look at your settings on your PBX under the gateway config - other options make sure you have the "PBX delivers Audio" checked and the "Gateway is External" unchecked. I am assumoing your gateway and your PBX machine are on the same subnet. If you make sure your RTP stream is flowing thru the PBX then it will have control of the call so when you transfer to another extension it should stay the hub of the call.

Hope this helps,

Paul
 
I use an handytone 386 with siemens cordless analog phones.
during conversation when I push the FLASH key I dont receive a special tone... simply nothing happens.

i've tried to change on cfg of handytone the way used to send DTMF to the server bue nothing no way to transfer a call.
I've tried to set the flash key as a DTMF but nothing.

In asterisk the PBX intercept the ## characters and wait to the number of the extension to complete the call transfer. ( a standard way to transfer from extension to extension regardless of hardware.)

this is a terrible limitation.... I've asked also to grandstream if there is something that I can try on the handytone configuration but noone replied me.

Every Phone and manufacturer have different codes to affect blind and attended transfers.

We have a list to affect these transfers but the list relates to the major phones that are supported by the 3CX Phone System. Any queries on how to affect these transfers please ask.
--
Example the cisco IP Phone 7940 series uses the following procedures to effect blind and attended transfers :

Blind:
Current conversation
press more button (current conversation goes on hold)
BXFER (for blind trans)
the extension number and finally
Dail button
--(the first call is blindly transfered to the second extension dialled without conversation in between)

Attended:
Current conversation
Press "More" - Current conversation goes on hold.
Transfer button (a new line is created)
dial the extension number you would like to transfer too
Talk with the second user
Decide to effect the transfer and press the TRANS button.
--The original call and the last call will connect together.

Grandstream GXP 2000

Blind transfer:
--Trans
--enter Extension Number you want call to be transfered to
--SEND button

Attended transfer:

Current incoming call
--Hold button
--press L2 (line 2)
--enter extension number
--Talk to user of this extension number - decide to affect transfer - ok
--Press on the following buttons in order - TRANS and L1
L1 will automatically connect to L2 and the users will talk to each other.
