[VoIP] Mitel Smart-1 as Pulse to Tone Converter

[Greg Blakely]

The default route in a SMART-1 is run by this command:

#80327##

The first three digits translate to "wait for precise dial tone", and
the rest of it amounts to "dial the number and cut through."

If the precise dial tone has timed out, the SMART-1 does not detect it,
and **should** hang up and then re-seize the line, detect the dial tone,
and then dial and cut through.

If this is not happening, it may be that the #803 part of the sequence
is missing...  

Something to check, anyway.

Greg.

PS.  I'm fairly good at programming SMART-1 dialers, since I installed
them for a 0+ provider for about three years, back in the late 1980s and
early 1990s.  I'm not an expert, by any means, but I can usually get
them running.
