Try this :

# These parameters control the attack dialing sequence.
#
# Maximum number of attempts to reach the telephone number(s)
MAX_ATTEMPTS=10 {Use here 1 or 2 } Then it will go to the nex number !!!!!!!

# Delay between each of the attempts. This is a parameter to sleep
# so use "15s" for 15 seconds, "1m" for 1 minute, etc.
SLEEP_DELAY=15s   Not less than 10? ( 5s Not working?)
