I hope this is the right place to ask this question.

I am running freeswitch using LUA. I'm doing outbound calling for a load tester.

I have a number that when you call it you need to enter 2654# before the call get's answered. So I need a way of dialing DTMF digits before the other end answers. I tried to just sleep and send_dtmf after the session.ready but that doesn't work.

Is there a way to do this. Sample code below...thanks

if (session:ready()) then

session:answer();

session:setVariable("CallCmp", "Script_dcetest1")

session:setVariable("PromptFail", "Script_dcetest1") ;

api = freeswitch.API();

session:sleep(1000);

--status = session:getVariable("SilenceStatus");

session:execute("wait_for_silence", "200 30 20 20000"); --

-- Continue in english, press 2

status = session:getVariable("SilenceStatus"); -- This will get past langauge and main menu prompts

if((status == "unset")and(session:ready())) then

session:execute("send_dtmf", "2@100"); --@ determines dtmf length, enter NPI
