Digit Sequence Examples
The following examples show digit sequences that you can enter in a dial plan.
In a complete dial plan entry, sequences are separated by a pipe character (|), and the entire set
of sequences is enclosed within parentheses.
EXAMPLE:
( [1-8]xx | 9, xxxxxxx | 9, <:1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx | 8, <:1212>xxxxxxx | 9, 1 [2-9]
xxxxxxxxx | 9, 1 900 xxxxxxx ! | 9, 011xxxxxx. | 0 | [49]11 )
•
Extensions on your system
EXAMPLE:
(
[1-8]xx
| 9, xxxxxxx | 9, <:1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx | 8, <:1212>xxxxxxx | 9, 1 [2-9]
xxxxxxxxx | 9, 1 900 xxxxxxx ! | 9, 011xxxxxx. | 0 | [49]11 )
[1-8]xx
Allows a user dial any three-digit number that starts with the digits 1 through 8.
If your system uses four-digit extensions, you would instead enter the following string:
[1-8]xxx
•
Local dialing with seven-digit number
EXAMPLE:
( [1-8]xx |
9, xxxxxxx
| 9, <:1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx | 8, <:1212>xxxxxxx | 9, 1 [2-9]
xxxxxxxxx | 9, 1 900 xxxxxxx ! | 9, 011xxxxxx. | 0 | [49]111)
9, xxxxxxx
After a user presses 9, an external dial tone sounds. The user can enter any
seven-digit number, as in a local call.
•
Local dialing with 3-digit area code and a 7-digit local number
EXAMPLE:
( [1-8]xx | 9, xxxxxxx |
9, <:1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx
| 8, <:1212>xxxxxxx | 9, 1 [2-9]
xxxxxxxxx | 9, 1 900 xxxxxxx ! | 9, 011xxxxxx. | 0 | [49]11 )
9, <:1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx
This example is useful where a local area code is required. After a
user presses 9, an external dial tone sounds. The user must enter a 10-digit number that
begins with a digit 2 through 9. The system automatically inserts the 1 prefix before
transmitting the number to the carrier.
•
Local dialing with an automatically inserted 3-digit area code
EXAMPLE:
( [1-8]xx | 9, xxxxxxx | 9, <:1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx |
8, <:1212>xxxxxxx
| 9, 1 [2-9]
xxxxxxxxx | 9, 1 900 xxxxxxx ! | 9, 011xxxxxx. | 0 | [49]11 )
8, <:1212>xxxxxxx
This is example is useful where a local area code is required by the
carrier but the majority of calls go to one area code. After the user presses 8, an external
dial tone sounds. The user can enter any seven-digit number. The system automatically
inserts the 1 prefix and the 212 area code before transmitting the number to the carrier.
•
U.S. long distance dialing
EXAMPLE:
( [1-8]xx | 9, xxxxxxx | 9, <:1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx | 8, <:1212>xxxxxxx |
9, 1 [2-9]
xxxxxxxxx
| 9, 1 900 xxxxxxx ! | 9, 011xxxxxx. | 0 | [49]11 )
9, 1 [2-9] xxxxxxxxx
After the user presses 9, an external dial tone sounds. The user can
enter any 11-digit number that starts with 1 and is followed by a digit 2 through 9.
