Does ET BE allow for multi-SIP simultaneous connection and targeted dial out.

I want to use different SIPs depending in type of call (to mob or landline etc).

And can they be programatically controlled via command line parms or whatever.

Although express talk supports multiple lines, I have never tested trying to make concurrent calls through the command line interface (unfortunately I am not at home right now so I cannot test what happens). I don't think it would permit more than one call, but as I said I will have to test this later.

However, for what you are trying to accomplish, may I suggest using NCH's IVM software instead? It is better suited as an auto-dialer and has many built-in features to make the process easier and more integrated.

Also, if you want to use different SIP lines like you are suggesting... your best bet is to use NCH's Axon software (it is free of charge). This is essentially a VoIP PBX call management system that supports features such as dialing plans.

Thanks PT. I will lok at the products you mentioned.

(Any consultants out here for a fee?)

However I am not trying to make concurrent calls from the one instance of ET BE on the desktop.

Just the ability to select different SIPs programatically.

Yes it does work. After you switch from one account/line to the next it places the others on hold until you get back to them. I tend to use one line for actual calls and the others vary wildly for testing and so far I haven't had a problem.
