[Syntax]
TIMEOUT(timeouttype)

[Synopsis]
Gets or sets timeouts on the channel.

[Description]
Gets or sets various channel timeouts. The timeouts that can be
manipulated are:

absolute: The absolute maximum amount of time permitted for a call.  A
           setting of 0 disables the timeout.

digit:    The maximum amount of time permitted between digits when the
          user is typing in an extension.  When this timeout expires,
          after the user has started to type in an extension, the
          extension will be considered complete, and will be
          interpreted.  Note that if an extension typed in is valid,
          it will not have to timeout to be tested, so typically at
          the expiry of this timeout, the extension will be considered
          invalid (and thus control would be passed to the 'i'
          extension, or if it doesn't exist the call would be
          terminated).  The default timeout is 5 seconds.

response: The maximum amount of time permitted after falling through a
           series of priorities for a channel in which the user may
           begin typing an extension.  If the user does not type an
           extension in this amount of time, control will pass to the
           't' extension if it exists, and if not the call would be
           terminated.  The default timeout is 10 seconds.
