DTMF Wait and Pause Parameters
Speed dial, directory, extended function, and other strings configured in the phone can include wait ( X ) and
pause ( , ) characters. These characters that allow manual and automatic DTMF (Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency)
signal transmission.
You can add the wait and pause character with speed-dial, extended function, or directory strings in the format:
{Dial_String}[ ][,|X][DTMF_string][,|X][DTMF_string]
where:
• Dial_String — is the number that the user is trying to reach. For example, 8537777 or 14088537777.
• [ ](space) — is a dial termination character that defines or delimits the end of the dial string. The space
is mandatory. If the phone encounters an X or a comma (,) before the space, the characters are treated
as part of dial string.
•

—
is a 2-second pause that is inserted for each comma in the string.
