Dial Number String Pause.

[mc6650@gmail.com]

Hello

First time posting.

I have a W60B base and several W56H cordless handsets. I want to be able to program a phone number with a pause. A standard “P” doesn’t seem to work. Is there another code that will work with these phones? Here’s an example of the number I’d like to program into the phone:

Complete Dial String = 1-800-XXX-XXXXPP1234
Number = 1-800-XXX-XXX
Pause = P
Extension Number = 1234

This number is entered into the contact list and allows for a caller to reach a specific extension number when dialing into a location that has an Auto Attendant / IVR. I’ve tried programming a number into a CSV file an uploading it to a phone, however that doesn’t seem to work. Any thoughts?

W60B Firmware = 77.85.0.160
W56H Firmware = 61.85.0.20

Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.

Try using commas which are used in a lot of cases instead of the P.

1800XXXXXXX,,1234

If that doesn't work then use teh Yealink Macro commands (as described in Using Enhanced DSS Keys on Yealink IP Phones:
1800XXXXXXX$Cwc$$Cp2$1234$Tdtmf$
