Call number, wait for connection and send DTMF tones

[Alfalis]

Hey guys,

I was wondering if there is a way to let IPO/Voicemail Pro initiate a call, wait a short time and after that automatically dial/send DTMF tones.

Basically we use a centralized time recording system for our work times where you call a certain extension, authenticate with a number and PIN and then enter the number of the job you are working on and - as lazy as I am - I was wondering if I could let my IPO or VM Pro do the "work" for me

Thanks in advance for any hints!

Create a button with a shortcode and use , as a pause.

Thanks for the tip tlpeter, but looking at System Status IPO seems to ignore "," and instantly dial my account code.

I'm using Server Edition 9.0.1 and I've tried several different codes including some with "D" and "Y" - none of which worked..

Any idea as to why IPO won't wait one second at ","?
