Repeat Dialing Service
Repeat dialing service is when a user dials *05 to tell the device to redial the last called number
repeatedly while the phone is on-hook, until the called party rings or answers.
When the called party rings or answers, the device rings the Phone port and the user can pick up the
attached handset to talk to the called party. Typically, the last called number was busy when the user
invokes this feature, but the device allows this feature for all cases.
This feature can be controlled with the following parameters (under the PHONE
N
Port - Calling
Feature section of the system web interface):
● RepeatDialInterval = the minimum number of seconds between each redial. Default is 30
seconds.
● RepeatDialExpires = the maximum duration in seconds when the repeat dialing remains
active. Default is 1800 seconds.
Dial *06 to cancel Repeat Dialing. Only one repeat dial request is supported. Dialing *05 while a
repeat dial is in progress is rejected with a fast busy tone. If *05 is accepted, the device plays a
normal dial tone.
Notes:
● The first redial happens 5 seconds after the phone is on-hook following *05.
● When the phone is off-hook or rings for an incoming call, the device pauses redial and cancels
the call if it's already dialed but the peer device is not ringing yet.
● As soon as the phone goes on hook or ringing stops without any calls on hold, repeat dialing
resumes in 5 seconds.
● If the called party answers before the local caller, the device sends a normal ringback tone over
RTP to the called party.
● The ring for alerting local user when the called party rings or answers is taken from outgoing
trunk's RepeatDialRing parameter.
● Repeat Dial calls are not logged to call history, except the last and successful one when the
called party rings or answers.
