Hi,
I have the 5 series phones and I like them but how do I get them to avoid hitting the dial button after I punch in the number to dial.
Thanks,

Set the dial timeout on the

Set the dial timeout on the phone and then wait for that interval. If you set it too short you will find yourself misdialing.

You can also hit the # key at the end of the number as a short cut to immediate dial.

Set the Sip Dial Plan for the phone

You can also match the digits dialed to get the phone to dial quicker. Below is what I use for a client in Louisiana. Local calls are 7 digits and everything else (long distance) is 1 + area code + 7 digits. Once it matches it sends the call out without having to wait for the sip digit timeout.

sip digit timeout:4 # set the inter-digit timeout in seconds
sip dial plan:"x+#|xx+*|[2-9]XXXXXX|1[2-9]XX[2-9]XXXXXX|1XXXXXXXXXX"

I set this in the template file used with the aastra scripts (/var/www/html/aastra/asterisk/trixbox.prf) or you can edit your "mac.cfg" to include it and erase your local config so it get reloaded with the changes.

Hope this helps... Thanks to PowerOnTech for his config examples on his site (powerpbx.org)
