Interdigit Long Timer (Incomplete Entry Timer)
You can think of this timer as the “incomplete entry” timer. This timer measures the
interval between dialed digits. It applies as long as the dialed digits do not match
any digit sequences in the dial plan. Unless the user enters another digit within the
specified number of seconds, the entry is evaluated as incomplete, and the call is
rejected. The default value is 10 seconds.
NOTE This section explains how to edit a timer as part of a dial plan. Alternatively, you can
modify the Control Timer that controls the default interdigit timers for all calls. See
“Resetting the Control Timers,” on page 77.
Syntax for the Interdigit Long Timer
SYNTAX: L:s, ( dial plan )
s: The number of seconds; if no number is entered after L:, the default timer of
5 seconds applies.
Note that the timer sequence appears to the left of the initial parenthesis for the
dial plan.
Example for the Interdigit Long Timer
EXAMPLE: L:15, (9,8<:1408>[2-9]xxxxxx | 9,8,1[2-9]xxxxxxxxx |
9,8,011xx. | 9,8,xx.|[1-8]xx)
L:15, This dial plan allows the user to pause for up to 15 seconds between digits
before the Interdigit Long Timer expires. This setting is especially helpful to users
such as sales people, who are reading the numbers from business cards and other
printed materials while dialing.
Interdigit Short Timer (Complete Entry Timer)
You can think of this timer as the “complete entry” timer. This timer measures the
interval between dialed digits. It applies when the dialed digits match at least one
digit sequence in the dial plan. Unless the user enters another digit within the
specified number of seconds, the entry is evaluated. If it is valid, the call proceeds.
If it is invalid, the call is rejected. The default value is 3 seconds.
