Thanks Dave. Unfortunately I've been through this already. I understand that digitmap are used to automatically press "send" when a certain pattern is reached. Nowhere can I say "if the pattern isn't fully match within x seconds then consider it a bad extension".
That`s the only relevant thing I haven`t yet found how to do.

Specifically the dialplan.digitmap and dialplan.impossibleMatchHandling settings. (These are explained in detail in the Admin Guide available on polycom's website). If you don't want the phone to do any dial plan matching you should make the digitmap accept any dial string (ie ".") and set your timeouts appropriately. -Dave _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
