[Asterisk-Users] overlap dialing on a pri span

[Martin Pycko]

Well first of all if you set up DigitTimeout to 5 seconds so asterisk is
going to wait up to 5 seconds to retrieve the digits specially when you
have a match of _X. that is at least to digits but with the timeout of 5
you could imagine that asterisk will intercept all digits.

How about having a pattern _X (without a dot). The amount of digits that
asterisk is waiting for is set by you. _X is one digit, _XXXXX is 5 digits
