add a "w" in the DIAL STRING<br>
Guess you didn't search the archives?<br>
Sometime in 1.2 this feature was fixed to work with pulse dial as well.<br>
<br>
example:<br>
<br>
exten => s,1,Dial(ZAP/g4/w(${ARG1:3:4}),360,Tt) <br>
<br>

<pre wrap="">Also, in the dial command.... the "w" says its for the *1 recording. Not
waiting. Is the documentation wrong? What is the correct way to wait in
the dial command?

We have a pots card in one of our asterisk boxes. Its a simple
asterisk setup with one FXO/FXS card and basic static extensions
file, etc. When we dial out over the pots line, 4 out of 5 times, it
will work. However,every 4 or 5 times, we get an error back from the
provider that says "The number you have dialed..... blah blah blah".

<pre wrap="">Common defect in the Zaptel driver.
It does NOT listen for dial tone, so if you have not inserted a "w" or
three into the dial string, it will dial before the Central Office is
ready, and it may miss a digit, causing misdials.
Curious that cheap modems years ago learned to listen for dial tone,
but the Zaptel driver doesn't, and of course this is considered a
"feature request" rather than a bug, and no one seems to want to fix it.
