It is designed to configure the parameters of the Preview Dialer.

It consists of the following elements (Fig. 1):

1. Originate timeout;
2. Wait between retries;

4. Max tasks;
5. Sort members retries by descending;
6. Strict circuit;
7. Recording;
8. Dialing Attempts per each phone number;
9. Allow greeting agent;
10. Endless;
11. Sticky.

Fig. 1. Parameters tab

1.1. Originate timeout

Waiting time to the Member, that is, how long we will wait for a response from the Member.

1.2. Wait between retries

The time between attempts is the time after which the next call will be made.

1.3. Max attempts

The number of attempts to call the Subscriber is entered here. If it is not connected to the Subscriber for the specified number of attempts, then dialing such a Subscriber stops.

1.4. Max tasks

The maximum allowed number of parallel outgoing calls.

If you assign a negative value, then all resources will be used (there will be a limit on the Progressive call count per Agent).

If the value is 0, no calls will be made.

1.5. Sort members retries by descending

Sort call back to Subscribers whose call time was missed, descending (according to the amount of time counted from the scheduled call time to the moment).

1.6. Strict circuit

The strategy is that first, the call will go through one attempt to dial to members, and then - from the next attempt, taking into account the time of the next call.

The time of the next call is specified in the Wait between retries field. 

If the time of the next call has not yet come, and the calls to members on the first attempt have already ended, then the dialer will wait until the time of the next call for some members comes.

2. Dialing Attempts per each phone number;
