 Samy,


Thanks for the suggestion - however I am confused on the wiki the
'w' stands for:

*w*: Allow the /called/ user to start recording after pressing *1 or what defined in features.conf (Asterisk > v1.0.x)

This is not a delay of any kind.

You can prepend a 'w' for a half-second wait which will resolve this problem.

e.g., Zap/1/w19007529269


Hi Jerry,

Check out: http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+Zap+channels

Note this line on the page:
/phonenumber/, if present, specifies which telephone number you wish to be connected with. Note that this makes sense only when you are dialing a telephone line (an FXO or PRI interface), not an internal extension. Within the phone number, you may use the special modifier *w* to indicate a half-second pause. You might want to use this to wait for a dialtone or for a pause while dialing digits. You may also use the special modifier *c* to allow for clear channel connections between PRI ports.

w = half-a-second wait

So, Zap/1/wwww13105551212 would be a 2 second wait. However, I've dealt with a lot of phone providers and none have ever required more than a single half-a-second wait for them to begin detecting the DTMF tones, so you should be good with one 'w'.

-samy

Also be advised that "w" ONLY seems to work with DTMF.

For those who require pulse output, there is no way to delay the blind dialing. Any number of "w"'s are ignored, so misdialing is probable if for any reason the Co isn't ready.
