Thank you for added explanations. I can confirm that xx.S5 works. It is sort of useful if one skips a digit while dialing;the message informing about incomplete number arrives a couple of seconds earlier. Alternatively skipping xx. at the end of the digit map achieves a similar goal and is handled by Obi, not the telco.

This has been quite an instructive thread. Thank you again for your input.

Can someone please explain the benefit of:

(<**1>011xx.|411|611|811|<703>xxxxxxxS4|[2-9]xxxxxxxxx|18(00|88|77|66|55)xxxxxxx|8(00|88|77|66|55)xxxxxxx|1900xxxxxxx|900xxxxxxx|1xxxxxxxxxx|xx.)

over:
(<**1>011xx.|411|611|811|<703>xxxxxxxS4|[2-9]xxxxxxxxx|8(00|88|77|66|55)xxxxxxx|900xxxxxxx|1xxxxxxxxxx|xx.

That is, why do you need the first part of something like (1800xxxxxxx|1xxxxxxxxxx|xx.)?

Won't the first match everything the second one does, just as efficiently and with no additional delay, because 1xxxxxxxxxx incorporates 1800xxxxxxxxxx, etc.?



Thanks.

Jon9999,

I'm putting my hand up to this one   :-[  It was a lazy "cut & paste" from one of my old posts where someone requested a digitmap specifically for a free "1800 / 800" service provider.

You are quite right 1xxxxxxxxxx covers any eleven digit number beginning with "1".

It's good to have a newbie pair of eyes looking at these things. Keep asking questions - some of us oldies need keeping on our toes   :)

The first one has the ) at the end, which was needed, so that is an advantage.  ;)

Now if you are looking for the equivalent of your string after the right-parenthesis was added, consider this to further shorten your string:
(<**1>011xx.|411|611|811|<703>xxxxxxxS4|[2-9]xxxxxxxxx|1xxxxxxxxxx|xx.)

My interpretation is that says allow 7-digit dialing to the 703 area code after a 4-second delay. Send 411. 611, and 811 immediately after a 2 second delay. Send 10-digit numbers, with or without a 1 prefix after a 2 second (short timer" delay, and send everything else after a 10 second (long timer) delay to wait for more digits. Everything gets sent to SP1 unless it is specifically prefixed with a **2 or other ** code. I am not suggesting that string to anybody. I was just continuing with the puzzle exercise.

I was unable to locate a post that contained the first string that you listed.

ianobi:
Wow, I really was having a bad day when I posted my first reply   ::)  Maybe I look for complications where they really don't exist!

With my Mr Pedantic hat on, I will point out, that if you have the "xx." rule, then the shortest delay for any number in this digitmap, even 411/611/811, will be two seconds.
