Title: Cisco Phone Services
Post by: Matt on December 27, 2010, 09:37:07 AM
This driver allows you to dynamically add a custom menu to the Cisco 7940/7960 series of VOIP phones which can then trigger macros on the XP8.

I use this to allow me to open the driveway gate when people buzz me on the intercom (which is also VOIP).  Got to love the Cisco gear :)

Absolutely... i'm still working on it at the moment.  Send me a PM with your email address and i'll forward you a copy once it's ready for testing.

Cheers,

Finally spent some time on this.  It's working very well and i'm really happy with how it works (did a bit of a rewrite).

You can have the following types of menu items:
  • static - just a line of text that's always the same
  • boolean (internal) - this one has 2 strings that toggle each time you select the item.  Tracked internally by the driver.
  • boolean (external) - the same as internal, however you can use an XP flag or another driver's boolean to change the text!
  • url - static text linking to an external website

Can this driver work with Cisco IP Phones with SIP Firmware (i.e. 7940, etc)

Good question... I suspect not, as it's the Cisco firmware that adds the functionality.  I run the skinny protocol here so I'm not sure.
