First digit Timeout
Match digit Timeout
Enter the timeout in milliseconds.
The following example explains both timeout settings using default values. The user picks up the phone handset and hears a dialtone. If the user does not enter a digit within the specified 16 seconds (first digit timeout), the dialtone restarts. After pressing the first digit, the user has 3 seconds (match digit timeout) to enter the next digit. After the user’s finger is off the button, the timer resets and the user has another 3 seconds to enter the next digit and so on. When the 3-second timer expires, the phone number is identified as complete, and the call is attempted.
The default First digit Timeout is 16000.
The default Match digit Timeout is 3000.
