SwyxWare v6.12 has a feature which allows you to call yourself. "That's stupid", you think. It's not. :-)

SwyxWare v6.12 has a feature which allows you to call yourself. "That's stupid", you think. It's not. :-)

This feature is especially made for people who like to soliloquize (I looked that up. It means talking to yourself) ;-)

 

Just kidding. Imagine this: On your way to work you're talking to your girlfriend/boyfriend (choose whatever fits) at home using your mobile phone with SwyxIt!Mobile 2.0. When entering the office you want to continue your conversation using SwyxIt! That's now possible. SwyxIt! Mobile establishes a second call to yourself. All devices you're logged in with are ringing. When you pick up the call with your SwyxIt! the original call is transferred and you can continue listening to your better half on SwyxIt!.

Before v6.12 SwyxServer blocked calls to yourself and this use case was not possible. You can use that with any type of device by dialing ##13. That delivers the call to all devices you're logged in with, except the calling one.

Re: SwyxWare v6.12 Feature: Call yourself

If you have followed all the effort I have put into a solution for streaming live video this week, you will think I really like watching myself. Great, now I can talk to myself also ;)

Re: SwyxWare v6.12 Feature: Call yourself

Nice feature. Long waited for that. DECT devices parallel with Swyxphones... Does ##13 works on 6.12 or is that just possible with 6.11? Can I edit the template file to erase the blocking for calls to my own number?

Re: SwyxWare v6.12 Feature: Call yourself

Two remarks:
1. No it does not work with V6.11, it is not just the template
2. Even so the list of feature code is expanded by ##13, the feature itself is called "Transfer to Office Phone" and is part of SIM V2.00 (SwyxIt! Mobile). It needs in addition to the changes in SwyxServer (and in the template) changes in the MEM service. The use case metioned by Martin is indeed the main target for the "Transfer to Office Phone" -Feature ín SIM and there will be a new menu item.
