Re: Dialectic Indigo Script

Success! Dialectic seems to work very reliably in sending caller ID info to Indigo.
Here's the script that runs on an incoming call. Very fast as well. I now have an photo, name, number and the last time they
called up on my always on control page screen even before my house phone knows it.
This is especially nice as I can also have it announced on my outdoor speakers.
Cheap too.

- Code: Select all
on handle_incoming_call_action(contact_name, contact_number, phone_or_modem_name)
try
tell application "IndigoServer" of machine "eppc://TV:xxx@TV.local"
# Log the number so we can see what it is
log "call from " & (contact_number as string)
log "call from " & (contact_name as string)
set the value of variable "CIDnumber" to (contact_number as string)
set the value of variable "CIDname" to (contact_name as string)
end tell
on error the_error
activate
display dialog "Error: " & the_error buttons {"OK"} default button 1 with icon 0 giving up after 20
end try
end handle_incoming_call_action
Cheap too.
