Description: Used to delay sending digits after going off hook for loop start lines only. On loop-start signaled lines, there is no handshake from the network to indicate that they are ready to receive digits (as there is in E & M). With this is set to 0, when the Tenor attempts to place a call out of this trunk it will go off-hook and immediately send the digits. The network (or PBX) may not be ready for the digits yet and the call may fail. You may need to provide a delay between the time that the Tenor goes off-hook and the time the Tenor starts to out-pulse digits. For the purposes of this section, the prompt will be shown as config pstntg 1# or config pbxtg 1#.
Cmd Type: command.
Prompt Level: config pstntg 1# and config pbxtg 1#
Syntax: dialdelay or dial {ms}
Arguments: ms The time, in milliseconds, to delay dialing.
Default: 0
Availability: Only if cassignaling is set to Loop-Start (1), Loop-Start Reverse Battery (5) or Loop-Start Forward Disconnect (6).
Guidelines: If required, start with 1000ms (1 second) and go from there. There is no standard time delay to use. Typically set on the PSTNTG only.
Examples:
config pstntg 1# dialdelay 1000
Sets the dial delay to 1000ms (1 sec) for the first PSTN trunk group.
config pbxtg 1# dialdelay 1500
Sets the dial delay to 1500ms (1.5 sec) for the first PBX trunk group.
