# Various BMIR Helper Stuff
Here's some stuff that I've found useful for my work with BMIR.
## Table of Contents
1. `voip-two-way/` — Helpers for setting up a two-way
"[automatic ringdown](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringdown#Non-operator_use)"
module for our broadcast desk. Interface into the broadcast deskboard is a
~~[JK Audio AutoHybrid](http://www.jkaudio.com/autohybrid.htm)~~ [JK Audio Broadcast Host](https://www.jkaudio.com/broadcast-host.htm), and hack for an old
VOIP ATA, described below.
- [`voip-two-way-howto.tar.xz`](voip-two-way/voip-two-way-howto.tar.xz): Tarball of archived
HTML file explaining how to set up a two-way, ringing, ringdown or "walkie-talkie"
style phone line with an old [Linksys PAPT2-NA](https://www.amazon.com/Linksys-PAP2T-NA/dp/B000Q7PDW2),
which I just happened to have. _(See: [the original how-to on
instructables.com](https://www.instructables.com/id/Hack-a-VOIP-Box-Into-a-Telephone-Intercom/).)_
- Note to avoid weird, annoying ghost rings after hangup:
- ~~with a [Cortelco 2500](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002LLH3Q0) and the
[Panasonic KX-TG6592T](https://www.amazon.com/gp/B004N4FE64), I had to change
the _"Dial Plan"_ on line 1 and line 2 to `(S3<:line2@127.0.0.1:5061>)` and
`(S3<:line1@127.0.0.1:5060>)`, respectively, ie `S0` to `S3` to have a 3 second
delay before dialing the other line.~~
- No need to change the dial plan! I figure it out, however the _"VM tone detect"_
feature on the [Panasonic KX-TG6592T](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004N4FE64/)
must be turned off. (Wow this one sucked to debug.) On the handset go:
- `MENU > Initial Setting > Voice mail > VM tone detect` and set to `OFF`.
- See manual: [`KX-TG6592-manual.pdf`](voip-two-way/KX-TG6592-manual.pdf)
