Put a sound file in <br><br>/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/rpt/nodenames/<br><br>such as 27225.ulaw <br><br>That file would play when you connected to node 27225.<br><br>There are already some sample files in there and some groups like the WAN system have file sets you can install for many of their nodes.<br><br>To just play a sound file locally when you type a DTMF sequence do the following.... <br><br>In the functions section of your rpt.conf file add the DTMF sequence. Note the DTMF sequence must not conflict with any other commands.<br><br>985=localplay,/tmp/some-sound-file<br id="FontBreak"></font><br><font style="" face="Tahoma">This would play the file when you DTMF 985. Note that you do NOT put the extent on the sound file name. No ulaw, gsm etc. and the file must comply with the requirements for playing - sample rate, etc.</font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma">Another way to execute macro commands and a way I usually employ because it is much more flexible is </font><font style="" face="Tahoma">to use bash scripts in the system and call them to do things.</font><font style="" face="Tahoma"> The scripts could also be called from a system cron job setup using crontab.<br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma">985=cmd,/tmp/some-script.sh</font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma">The script could be </font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma">#! /bin/bash</font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma">/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "rpt fun node *327133"</font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma">/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "rpt localplay node some-sound-file"</font><br><br><font style="" face="Tahoma">Replace node with your node number</font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma"><br></font><font style="" face="Tahoma">This would connect your node to node 27133 and play the specified sound file locally.</font><br><br><font style="" face="Tahoma">These scripts could go anywhere on the system but I recommend creating a directory under /etc/asterisk - call it local or your call letters or whatever you want and put your local files there.
