How the Telnyx dialplan works with Linksys

Digit Sequence

Function

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 * #

Characters available to use that map to a phone digit.

x

Any phone digit.

[sequence]

You can enter characters between brackets to create an allow-list of only certain digits.
​
For example, if you enter the range [1-5], the user may only press the digits from 1 to 5.
​
You can also use consecutive characters to denote skipping certain numbers.

For example [25-7*] allows the user to press 2, 5, 6, 7 or *. (Note that 4 is missing, as are 8 and 9)

. (period)

You can use a period to accept zero or more entries the number that precedes the zero.
​
For example, 01. allows the user to enter 0, 01, 011 and so on.

<dialed:substituted>

This is used for sequence substitution, you can use this to indicate that the 1 + area code 555 will be followed by the next 7 digits of a phone number in that area code.

For example with this sequence <:1555>xxxxxxx if the user dial a 7 digit number, the number 1555 is added to the beginning of the sequence. If the user press 6782345, the system transmits 15556782345.

, (comma)

This can be used between digits to play an “outside line” dial tone after a trigger number or sequence.

For example, with this sequence 9, 1x. an “outside line” dial tone is sounded after the user presses 9, and continues until the user presses 1

! (exclamation point)

You can use this character to prohibit a dial sequence.

For example the sequence 1900xxxxxxx! will make the system reject any 1-900 number.

S0 or L0

Overrides the Short or Long inter-digit timer to 0 seconds.

For example:
​<:1555>[2-9]xxxxxxS2 on a seven-digit local call, wait two seconds to see if any more digits are dialed - after the delay expires, prefix the number with local area code +1-555 and send it

​1[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxxS0 indicates, if +1-areacode-number is dialed as eleven digits, do not wait for additional dialed digits and send immediately.

P#
(where # is the duration of the pause in seconds)

Pauses # seconds.
