Interdigit Timout

When a button (0-9) is pressed on your IP Phone, a timer starts till the IP Phone attempts to send the digits dialed up to that point.  This is known as the IP Phones Interdigit Timeout Seconds.  If you need to increase or decress this setting, you need to log into each device and edit the value in the Interdigit Timeout section of the IP Phones web user interface.

 

For Polycom IP Phones you can locate the Interdigit Timeout setting by going to the SIP Tab:

For Yealink IP Phones you can locate the Interdigit Timeout setting by going to the Phone Tab:

 

 

Just hit the 'confirm' button on the Phones page after editing the setting.

 

You can also perform this server wide for Yealink phones.  Simply make the changes listed below:

Change these files in /tftpboot/

y000000000007-serverid.cfg <- T20P
y000000000032-serverid.cfg <- T32G
y000000000038-serverid.cfg <- T38G
mac_t41p_42g.tmpl <- T42G
mac_t46g.tmpl <- T46G

Find the following line under the ****Features**** section

#Configure the time (in seconds) the phone automatically dials out the dialed digits. It ranges from 1 to 14, the default value is 1.
phone_setting.inter_digit_time = 4

 

Note: the device may require a reboot to lock in the new Interdigit Timeout
