Interdigit Long Timer (Incomplete Entry Timer)

You can think of this timer as the incomplete entry timer. This timer measures the
interval between dialed digits. It applies as long as the dialed digits do not match
any digit sequences in the dial plan. Unless the user enters another digit within the
specified number of seconds, the entry is evaluated as incomplete, and the call is
rejected. The default value is 10 seconds.
This section explains how to edit a timer as part of a dial plan. Alternatively, you
can modify the Control Timer that controls the default interdigit timers for all calls.
