*DTMF input was detected – if permitted – or
*if the connection has been terminated.
Under "Properties", all three tabs "General", "Parameters" and "Connections" tabs are available for this block.
This is how you define the parameters for “Say Date”

*Enter the date directly or
*select a date from the list of available variables and system functions .

In doing so, define whether the character entered should be saved in a variable and whether
