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 is 5 seconds. With the timer
set to 0 seconds, the call is transmitted automatically to the specified extension when the phone goes off
hook.
• Note that the timer sequence appears to the left of the initial parenthesis for the dial plan.
Example for the Interdigit Long Timer
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 means that 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.
The timer 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 the entry is valid, the
call proceeds. If the entry is invalid, the call is rejected.
Default: 3 seconds.

S:6, (9,8<:1408>[2-9]xxxxxx | 9,8,1[2-9]xxxxxxxxx | 9,8,011xx. | 9,8,xx.|[1-8]xx)
S:6 means that while the user enters a number with the phone off hook, the user can pause for up to 15 seconds
between digits before the Interdigit Short 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.
Set an instant timer for a particular sequence within the dial plan:
(9,8<:1408>[2-9]xxxxxx | 9,8,1[2-9]xxxxxxxxxS0 | 9,8,011xx. | 9,8,xx.|[1-8]xx)
9,8,1[2-9]xxxxxxxxxS0 means that with the timer set to 0, the call is transmitted automatically when the user
dials the final digit in the sequence.
