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
”Editing the Control Timers for the
Default Interdigit Values,” on page 62 .

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.
