Incredible PBX Scheduled Paging

[Umar Saleem]

Hello,

We recently downloaded Incredible PBX for its GVSIP integration. Before this we were using the stock version of FreePBX. Within that we were using the Paging and Intercom Pro module which allowed us to schedule pages to be sent (this was used as a bell system for our school).
I see in Incredible PBX that there is a paging module but don't see any way to schedule pages in there, does anyone have any insight in how we can add scheduled paging to Incredible PBX?

Not familiar with this FreePBX module, but have been doing something similar for years.

Simply add an entry to your CronTab to schedule your events. Then in the script you run either move a static call file to the /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/ directory (NOTE MV not CP) or if you need customized parts build a file on the fly in the script (maybe with awk) then move that file to the same directory.
