Softphone will answer automatically only calls with the following fields in the SIP header: Call-Info: Auto Answer
, Call-Info: answer-after=0
or X-AUTOANSWER: TRUE
. In this case the ringtone does not sound.
Auto-answer with delay
If the previous option is enabled and an incoming call has the above mentioned field Call-Info: answer-after=0
in the SIP header, softphone performs an auto answer in accordance with the answer-after parameter (time in seconds).
You can also configure the event handler, it allows to delay auto answer for any call without a special SIP header.

C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe /c timeout /t 5 /nobreak & Callifi.exe -answer
The number after /t
parameter is the delay before auto-answer in seconds.
