System Requirements

Configuration

• Create a new folder called e.g. notify on the CF card or within the V13-FilesApp
• Copy files from the download page to this new folder
• Configure a VM object which points to the contained xml script (for example http://127.0.0.1/DRIVE/CF0/notify/prompt-or-record.xml)
  • From V13 on you can upload files to the AP-Platform based FilesApp to get access to them via webdav. Read here howto accomplish it.

• A call diverted to the VM object will play the announcement and quit the call

Known Problems

A simple call to the VM object can delete/overwrite the announcement. To provide this, you may delete the extension number after recording and make the call divertion depending on the NAME of the VM object.
