Just read up on RN and Outcalling..Question - What does Skytel expect - try dialing it manually and entering * or #'s.

Once you determine the expected characters,
Setup your Outcalling Parameters to match, Example:

Quote:
Through the system administrator, the user is able to specify the
type of notification delivered to a numeric pager or paging
service:
• callback number only
• both the callback number and the caller’s primary DN or
CLID, separated by a special character, such as a blank
In the Numeric Pager Data Separator field, you specify the
keypad character used to insert a separator (such as a blank)
between the callback number and the caller’s number.
This keypad character is defined on a per-customer basis.
Valid values The valid values are #, *, and blank. Blank indicates that no data separator character is sent.
Default The default is *.
Here is another quote that mentions Skyxxx

Quote:
Numeric pager data terminator
Description Some general access paging services require a special
terminator character. When the Meridian Mail system calls the
paging service and the call is answered, Meridian Mail sends
the pager (or personal) identification number (PIN), the
terminator digit (using it as a delimiter), then the callback
number, followed by the terminator digit.
The following characters are acceptable: # , e , and E. Number
sign (#) is used by many paging services (such as SkyPager) as
a terminator character. If you want to configure a terminator
character other than #, you must choose “E” or “e” for this field
and then use the RN Administration tool to define the actual
terminator character (among other things).
“E” signifies external file—the parameters file that is saved
when you use the RN Administration tool. In essence, this
allows a different set of parameters, including the data
terminator and the data separator characters, to be specified.
This set of parameters is defined on a system-wide basis, which
means that all customers that have their Numeric Pager Data
Terminator field completed with “E” or “e” use this set of
parameters instead of those defined in the Outcalling
Administration screens.
See the System Administration Tools Guide
(NTP 555-7001-305) for information about using the RN
Administration tool.
Note: On multi-customer systems, you can define only one set
of enhanced characteristics per system, and this set can be
assigned to different customer groups.
If users subscribe to a general access paging service that does
not accept this character, leave this field blank.
Do you want a copy of the MerMail 12 Outcalling and RN in pdf format?
