parameter. The Information digits can be sent in-band in the voice stream, or out-of-band
using Q.931 Information messages. If Q.931 Information messages are used, the DTMF in-
band detector must be disabled. Note that when at least one digit is received in the ISDN
Setup message, the device stops playing a dial tone.
The device stops collecting digits (from the ISDN) upon the following scenarios:

The device receives a Sending Complete IE in the ISDN Setup or Information
messages, indicating no more digits.

The timeout between received digits expires (configured by the TimeBetweenDigits
parameter).

The maximum number of received digits has been reached (configured by the
MaxDigits parameter).

A match is found with the defined digit map (configured by the DigitMapping
parameter).
Relevant parameters (described in ''PSTN Parameters'' on page 934):

ISDNRxOverlap_x = 1 (can be configured per trunk)

TimeBetweenDigits

MaxDigits

MuteDTMFInOverlap

DigitMapping
For configuring ISDN overlap dialing using the Web interface, see ''Configuring Trunk
Settings'' on page 359.
24.6.2 Interworking ISDN Overlap Dialing with SIP According to RFC
3578
With overlap dialing disabled, the device expects to receive the digits all at once (enbloc) or
with very little delay between digits and then sends the complete number in a single
message. Overlap signaling sends portions of the number in separate messages as it
collects the digits from the sender. The interval between receiving the digits (time between
digits) is relatively long. However, overlap dialing allows the device to begin call setup
(routing) even before all digits have been collected. For example, if the dialled (destination)
number is "3312418", the device first receives the digits "331" and then routes the call
based on these digits. It then delivers the remaining 4 digits "2418" in overlap mode. The
device supports the interworking of ISDN overlap dialing to SIP and vice versa, according
to RFC 3578.

Interworking ISDN overlap dialing to SIP (Tel to IP): The device sends the first
digits (e.g., "331") received from the ISDN Setup message to the IP side in the initial
SIP INVITE message. Each time it receives additional (collected) digits, which are
received from subsequent Q.931 Information messages, it sends them to the IP side
in SIP re-INVITE or SIP INFO messages. You can use the following parameters to
configure overlap dialing for Tel-to-IP calls:
• ISDNRxOverlap: Enables Tel-to-IP overlap dialing and defines how the device
sends the collected digits to the IP side - in SIP re-INVITE [2] or INFO messages
[3].
• MinOverlapDigitsForRouting: Defines the minimum number of overlap digits to
collect from the Tel side before the device can send the first SIP message
(INVITE) for routing the call to the IP side.
• MaxDigits: Defines the maximum number of collected digits that can be received
from the Tel side (if ISDN Sending Complete IE is not received). When the
number of collected digits reaches the maximum, the device uses these digits for
the called destination number.
