Overview
Dialplans on the ClearlyIP Phones are used to decide what's a valid number to send to the PBX and be used for digit manipulation.
Note: Digit manipulation is typically best done on the PBX via Outbound Routes or Trunk Configuration.

Note: Be sure to understand Dial Timeouts as the Dialplan on phone works in conjunction with the Dial Entry Timeouts decide when a call is automatically sent to the PBX instead of waiting for the user to press Send or #
Dial No Entry Timeout: Sets the delay (in seconds) before the phone dials the entered digits, allowing the calls to be dialed without pressing Send or #. 0 Means wait forever. Dial Now Timeout: Sets the delay (in seconds) before the phone dials the entered digits, when the dialed number matches a dial pattern. 0 Means no delay.
This useful when you have similar over lapping dial patterns i.e. NXXXXXX, NXXNXXXXXX, and 1NXXNXXXXXX.
