OBi200 DigitMap - How do I eliminate the 3 second delay for 10-digit dialing?

(1/2) > >>

2Tall:
Nearly all of my outbound calls from my analog cordless through the OBi200 involve 10-digit dialing.  When I dial the 10 digit number followed by # and then go off-hook, the first ring is heard in about 1/2 second after the #.  When I don't add the #, it takes about 3 seconds before I hear the first ring.

This is what my DigitMap looks like for Callcentric, (*xx|*123|1xxxxxxxxxx|<1757>[2-9]xxxxxx|<1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx|011xx.|xx.|(Mipd)|[^*]@@.)

When I dial the number using the caller id memory (i.e. returning a call) on the Panasonic handset, there is no way to automatically add the #.  Any suggestions on how to speed up the match in the OBi200 once the 10th digit is dialed?  Thanks.

Try adding S0 to make it
(*xx|*123|1xxxxxxxxxx|<1757>[2-9]xxxxxx|<1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxxS0|011xx.|xx.|(Mipd)|[^*]@@.)

Thank you, drgeoff, for taking the time to reply with a possible solution.  Unfortunately, it didn't help.  This represents the 3rd time I've attempted to get a resolution to this annoyance.  

My previous ATA was a carrier supplied Grandstream HT702.  When I switched carriers, I had to purchase my own ATA. My experience with Grandstream and their support had me leaning strongly in the direction of the Grandstream HT802. However, I decided on the OBi200, in part, because of Google Voice as a backup.

ProfTech:
There are 2 or 3 things that could be delaying your dialing.

1. You have both 10 digit and 7 digit dialing configured. This causes a delay when dialing 7 digit numbers. Remove the <> brackets from <1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx so it becomes 1[2-9]xxxxxxxxx. Your user will be forced to dial the 1 (11 digit long distance) but it will reduce the delay when dialing 7 digits..
2. Remove the "xx." completely. You already have international dialing configured. It is a catch-all that allows dialing any number but causes a 10 second delay unless you add the #.
3. I would remove the "[^*]@@." can't remember it's purpose. Not sure how much delay it might cause.
4. Remove the (Mipd). Same reasoning.

2 or 3 seconds is not an inordinate call setup time though. Since you don't call 7 digit numbers very often simply removing the xx. could solve your issue if 10 digit dialing is important to you.

ProfTech, a B I G thank you for ending several months of frustration. Removing the "xx." changed the delay from 3 seconds to around 1 second.  There is now no discernible difference in connect time between doing 10digit or 1+10digit dialing with or without the # key appended.  When I now place a call using the caller id memory, there will no longer be that long 3-second delay due to the # key not being appended. I had also previously removed the strings associated with IP dialing based on what I found while continuing to search for an answer in the meantime.  Thank you, immensely, for your comprehensive response as it has helped to shelve my buyer's remorse.
