For example: NoOp(SIP/mypeer has state ${DEVICE_STATE(SIP/mypeer)}) NoOp(Conference number 1234 has state ${DEVICE_STATE(MeetMe:1234)}) The DEVICE_STATE function can also be used to set custom device state from the dialplan. The `Custom:` prefix must be used. For example: Set(DEVICE_STATE(Custom:lamp1)=BUSY) Set(DEVICE_STATE(Custom:lamp2)=NOT_INUSE) You can subscribe to the status of a custom device state using a hint in the dialplan: exten => 1234,hint,Custom:lamp1 The possible values for both uses of this function are: UNKNOWN | NOT_INUSE | INUSE | BUSY | INVALID | UNAVAILABLE | RINGING | RINGINUSE | ONHOLD ### Syntax
