I gave that a try, but the same problem on the console that this is not a Zap channel. Also tried David's Gomillion's approach with a dial then flash, but still the same problem about not being a zap channel. And indeed, flash doesn't accept an argument so there's not much point in me placing it there, I was just trying out a non-working example/food for thought that was posted previously... http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg23426.html I've been toying with the extension a little more in the hope of perhaps doing a pseudo flash as per David's dial then flash suggestion but tweaked as follows:- exten => 922,1,Dial(Zap/1/*022,1) exten => 922,2,Dial(Zap/1/*022) exten => 922,3,Congestion exten => 922,4,Hangup (I've tried a few variations on the above, including a 1 in place of the *, and first line dialing 0 instead of the full command) Indeed, Asterisk picks up the line, dials (hopefully correctly) *022 then hangs up after 1000ms. Then hopefully hammers the line open again so the Norstar sees it as a flash and continues to dial *022 again. Unfortunately it doesn't work, Asterisk seems to be doing it correctly, but the Nortel can be a cantankerous beast with it's analog ports. I just get the rapid congestion tone from it that somethings not right with the way I dialled. As per the further suggestions, my speed dials rarely ever change, and I think I will relent and take this approach... basically I was wanting to not have to change the restriction filters on the Nortel for that analog port (since the speed dials override restrictions), but I think I'll fine grain the dialing restrictions through my Asterisk dial plans, should be the most pain free approach. The other thing was I just wanted to learn a little more about what can be done on the X100P, as there's many other commands that can be sent to the Norstar that are prefixed with a flash, although I doubt I'll really ever need to use any of them. Thanks very much for all the suggestions though, much appreciated. And David I hope you continue on the list, if only as a reader, as your input and contributions are definitely appreciated.
