+# to generate a call. For Asterisk to read call files, you must have the

-Channel: Zap/1
+# Comments are indicated by a '#' character that begins a line, or follows
+# a space or tab character. To be consistent with the configuration files
+# in Asterisk, comments can also be indicated by a semicolon. However, the
+# multiline comments (;-- --;) used in Asterisk configuration files are not
+# supported. Semicolons can be escaped by a backslash.

+Channel: DAHDI/1
+#
+# You can specify codecs for the call
+Codecs: alaw, speex, h264
#
# You may also specify a wait time (default is 45 seconds) for how long to
# wait for the channel to be answered, a retry time (default is 5 mins)

-# You can set channel variables that will be passed to the channel
+# An account code can be specified the following way:

-#SetVar: file1=/tmp/to
-#SetVar: file2=/tmp/msg
-#SetVar: timestamp=20021023104500
+#Account: mysuperfunaccountcode

-# You may specify an account to be passed to CDRs
+# Normally, a call file is always deleted after the call is successful
+# or the maximum number of tries is reached even if the modification
+# time of the call file was changed during the call to be in the
+# future. By Setting AlwaysDelete to No the modification time of the
+# call file will be checked after the call is completed or the maximum
+# number of retries is reached. If the modification time is in the
+# future, the call file will not be deleted.
+#
+#AlwaysDelete: Yes

+# Setting Archive to yes the call file is never deleted, but is moved
