Phone dialing ignores 'p'

buze · 08-16-2013, 06:26 AM

The gate at work can be called when you arrive to open it, you dial, press '1' and get in.
If I use the phone (Android) to dial, it works. If I use the X3 phone interface to call, it dials fine, but ignores the "p1" part of the number (pause then dial 1)..

A further bug is that the raw number is displayed in the "last calls" instead of the preset name.. so the software seems not to like having non-number in the phone number field that breaks the number/name match.

Anyone knows if there is a fix for these issues? Really feels like cheap software to me, its not particularly rare to use "p" with extension numbers etc...

iPhone uses "comma" instead of "p" for pause.

Just fyi, the old AT command spec for commanding modems and telephones lists the comma as the standard explicit "pause" command and is supposed to be of duration 2 seconds.
