Line Lockout L-3
L-3 Line Lockout
General Description
This feature provides for the automatic release of a station from the common equipment when it has remained off-
hook for longer than the usual interval before dialing. The NEAX2400 IMX may be programmed to return a Howler
Tone to the station in the LINE lock-out mode.
Operating Procedure
For LINE lock-out:
1. User goes off-hook and receives dial tone. 
2. After approximately 12 seconds, if the user has not initiated dialing, he receives reorder tone.
3. After 30 seconds of reorder tone, the station is automatically placed into the LINE lock-out state. 
4. Upon replacing the handset, the station is released from the LINE lock-out state and operation returns to
normal.
For LINE lock-out with Howler Tone:
1. User goes off-hook and receives dial tone. 
2. After approximately 12 seconds, if the user has not initiated dialing, he receives reorder tone.
3. After 30 seconds of reorder tone, a Howler Tone is sent to the station. 
4. Upon replacing the handset, the station is released from the Howler Tone state and operation returns to
normal.
Service Conditions
1. A station in the LINE lock-out state can neither receive nor originate calls.
2. This feature is provided on a system-wide basis.
3. The Attendant cannot activate any feature to a station in the LINE lock-out state.
4. After 30 seconds of reorder tone, the station is automatically placed into LINE lock-out, if the system is
not provided with Howler Tone service.
5. Howler Tone should not be used with OPX lines.
6. Howler Tone can be provided or denied on a system-wide basis.
7. Howler Tone is only sent to analog stations.
Interactions
1. When the BUSY LAMP FIELD - FLEXIBLE (BLF) [B-2] feature is provided, the associated station
status lamp on the ATTENDANT CONSOLE [A-3] will flash, indicating the telephone number is in LINE
lock-out.
2. CALL FORWARDING - DONT ANSWER [C-2, 3]: A call cannot extend a lock-out station via CALL
FORWARDING - DONT ANSWER [C-3].
3. BUSY VERIFICATION [B-3]: Busy verification of a locked-out station results in reorder tone being
heard by the Attendant.
4. NIGHT CONNECTION - FLEXIBLE/FIXED [N-1, 2] with TAS [T-8] feature not active: When the Night
Station is in a lock-out state, calls directed to the Night Station will receive ringback tone. If the TAS [T-
8] feature is active, calls are directed to the Night Bell.
5. CALL WAITING [C-12, 31]: Call Waiting cannot be activated on a station in lock-out. The calling party
will receive reorder tone.

L-3 Line Lockout
Interactions (cont’d)
6. CALL HOLD [C-6]: From a special dial tone state, LINE lock-out will occur if a user attempting to place
a station on hold dials the CALL HOLD [C-6] access code and partially dials any number. The sequence
prior to lock-out is: interdigit time-out for 6 seconds, reorder tone for 30 seconds, optional Howler Tone
for 30 seconds. When the station in lock-out goes on-hook, it will be rung by the station on hold. The Busy
Lamp Field will not flash
7. EXECUTIVE RIGHT-OF-WAY [E-1]: Reorder tone will be returned to a calling party that is attempting
Executive Override toward a station in lock-out.
8. THREE-WAY CALLING [T-2]: An attempt to establish a Three-Way Conference with a station in lock-
out will result in the reorder tone being returned to the user making the attempt. The user can return to the
station on hold by switch hook flashing.
9. With the following calls, when a user fails to hang up after the other party has disconnected, the station
will be placed in a lock-out condition after a 30-second reorder tone (time-out), optional 30-second Howler
Tone warning (time-out): 
DIRECT INWARD DIALING (DID) call [D-8] 
STATION-TO-STATION call [S-11]
Trunk-to-Station call
Attendant-to-Station call
10. CALL BACK [C-1]: To activate Call Back, the user dials the appropriate access code after reaching a busy
station. If the user fails to go on-hook within 30 seconds after receiving service set tone, LINE lock-out
will occur. The sequence prior to lock-out is: Service set tone for 30 seconds, reorder tone for 30 seconds,
optional Howler Tone warning for 30 seconds. Call Back cannot be activated toward a station in lock-out.
11. CALL WAITING - ORIGINATING [C-31]: If a user fails to complete dialing of the access code while
attempting to activate CALL WAITING - ORIGINATING [C-31], LINE lock-out will occur.
12. A station in LINE lock-out will be restored to service when the user goes on-hook for 280 milliseconds or
more.
13. MESSAGE REMINDER [M-19D]: A Message Reminder cannot be sent to a station in LINE lock-out.
14. ATTENDANT NIGHT TRANSFER [A-19] is not available if the Night Transfer Station is in LINE
lockout. The caller will hear ringback tone then reorder tone.

Least Cost Routing - 3/6-Digit L-5
L-5 Least Cost Routing - 3/6-Digit
General Description
This feature allows the NEAX2400 IMX to be programmed to route outgoing calls over the most economical facility
(WATS, FX, DDD). Based on the area code and office code dialed (6-digit analyzing), the system examines the
programming tables and chooses the facilities in the order specified. Least-Cost Routing (LCR) may also be
performed on a sender basis (LCR(S)).
Operating Procedure
1. Lift the handset; receive dial tone. 
2. Dial the trunk access code (usually “9”); receive second dial tone. 
3. Dial the area code, office code and number.
4. The system automatically completes the call via the most economical route.
Service Conditions
The following is a step-by-step explanation, which when reviewed in conjunction with the figure on the following
page, will provide better insight as to how the NEAX2400 IMX switch accomplishes LCR:1. If dialing a toll or local call (NPA-NXX-XXXX or NXX-XXXX), routing begins with translation of 3- digit (NPA or NXX) area or office code. For specific numbers, this translation may result in the immediate
selection of the 3-digit routing patterns. If the number dialed is an NPA and 6-digit translation is required,
the NXX code is verified in the SCC (XX) or the FX (XX) Table 
(Note). If the NXX is not located in either
table, refer to Service Condition (3). There is a maximum of 4000 Outgoing Pattern Routing (OPR) Tables
with a maximum of 8 routes for selection.
Note: a
. SCC (XX) is the Special Common Carrier NXX Translation Table.
b . FX (XX) is the FX NXX Translation Table.
2. First-choice route option in an NPA pattern will usually be a Specialized Common Carrier. If a trunk is
available in this group, further digit translation will be required in order to determine whether the called
number is served by the carrier. NXX digit translation will also be required in instances where a call is
routed over a TIE or FX trunk. For these purposes, 4000 NXX patterns are available. 
3. In the case of Specialized Common Carriers, associated NXX patterns will return either a YES or a NO answer to the switch, indicating whether or not the dialed number is within the designated service area of
the selected SCC. If service is available, the switch will seize the trunk and complete the connection. If
the NO answer is returned, the switch searches for the next available trunk group.
4. Calls routed over FX trunk groups may require out-pulsing of prefix digit “1”, depending on the NXX number dialed. For this purpose, another group of associated NXX patterns may be used, operating on the
same YES/NO principle. A YES answer returned to the switch in this instance will result in prefix “1”
being added automatically before sending dig its to the called Central Office.
5. Where the selected route is an FX trunk group, NXX translation may be used to either allow or disallow the connection. This is accomplished via YES/NO answers from a designated group of NXX patterns, and
enables calls to selected Central Office areas to be effectively restricted to only the most economical
routes. 
The routing method described provides some of the most flexible options available for call routing, and
functions  as a highly ef fe ct iv e me th od of  co st contr ol. F or det ails, s ee  t h e  following figure .

Service Conditions (cont’d)
3/6-digit Least Cost Routing Translation Table, Dialed Number 9-NPA-NXX-XXXX
6. In certain cases, 3 and 6-digit translation will provide sufficient information for identification of the
service area. 4000 separate Outgoing Routing Patterns are available for this circumstance.
7. Up to 8 trunk routes can be in each Outgoing Routing Pattern.
8. STATION MESSAGE DETAIL RECORDING SYSTEM [S-10] may be used in conjunction with LCR -
3/6-DIGIT. The route selected by the switch will be recorded by the SMDR unit.
9. TIE Lines can be included in route patterns.
10. Application of NXX patterns provides for inclusion of multiple common carriers serving different areas.
11. When a TIE Trunk requiring an off-net connection to the local Central Office is included as a route option,
the NEAX2400 IMX can provide a 2.8-second prepause before sending out the selecting signal.
12. Senders (DP or DTMF) are provided with this feature for outpulsing.
13. Pre-translation function minimizes waiting time after dialing. After enough digits are collected to
determine a route, the system starts outpulsing before the station completes dialing the entire number
(LCR - SENDER).
14. If OUTGOING TRUNK QUEUING [O-2] is activated during LCR, all routes listed in the Outgoing
Routing Pattern will be available to the queue, if one of these trunks becomes idle.
15. When LCR - 3/6-DIGIT is provided, the Attendant cannot pass dial tone to a station. The desired number
must be dialed by the Attendant.
16. Stations having different Route Restriction Classes, but using the same LCR - 3/6-DIGIT pattern, can be
denied access to the last choice trunk route(s) in that pattern. Route Restriction Classes may be set up so
that a station dialing an area code can use WATS, FX, and DDD; or only the WATS line, if such an
arrangement is desired. This is a form of forced LCR.
17. NXX patterns may be programmed to restrict all stations in the system from completing calls to specific
NXX numbers over FX trunks.

Service Conditions (cont’d)
18. The system will include the ability to detect a dialed DDD number and compare it with a DDD list table
to determine if the call is directed to a facility served by the trunk network. If the dialed number is found
in the DDD list table, a translation is provided to the 7-digit on-net number (ABC-XXXX) served by the
TIE Trunk. This allows an expensive public network dialed number to be trapped and automatically
diverted to an available leased facility. If a TIE Line is not available, the call will be routed as dialed.
19. The NEAX2400 IMX is capable of converting a maximum of 24 receiving digits into a required 24-digit
number entirely. Interdigit pauses can be inserted whenever necessary. This provides for an extremely
flexible numbering plan for a complex network.
20. When deleting the AOPR command, this also deletes the ASDC table using the OPR pattern.
21. Advancing to C.O. line is not available in the FCCS network.
22. The outgoing call using a trunk in the remote node via FCCS link is available. Therefore, Route Restriction
class data must be identical in the FCCS network. For more detailed information, see the NEAX2400 IMX
Fusion Network System Manual.
23. The ASDC command is not applicable in the FCCS network.
24. When using this feature within an FCCS network, deleting the AOPRL/N command also deletes the
ASDCL/N table using the OPR pattern.
25.
(Series 7400 software enhancement) In case of LCRS feature, the system starts connecting and
communication between the calling party and the called party without completing the maximum digits
(MND) of destination number which is set in the AMND command from the calling party.
26.
(Series 7400 software enhancement) LCRS call without completing the MND of AMND command:
a.) ARTI - Assign the parameter DCANS (CDN:54) as “1” to the objected route.
b.) ARTD - Assign the parameter OSGS (CDN:1) as “2” (second dial tone) and LSG (CDN:15) as
other than “12” (CCIS/ISDN) to the objected route class of outgoing trunk.
27.
(Series 7400 software enhancement) This feature is available:
a.) When a call is directly originated from a station via LCRS
b.) When a station/trunk call, once placed on hold, is originated via LCRS
c.) When a trunk call is originated via LCRS (Tandem Connection)
Note:
This feature is not available when the LCRS call from a Attendant Console or LCR call by the individual Trunk Access.
Interactions
1. AFRS and AMND tables must correlate to each other. If dialing patterns listed in AFRS are not
programmed in AMND, the calls will not go through. Also, if dialing patterns are not set in AFRS,
including simple local calls, the calls will not go through.
2. LCR(S) provides only route selection based on digits dialed and route availability. Once a route has been
determined to be available because of dialed digits, Route Restriction Class will determine if this route
will be made available to the station. If denied and other routes are available, the same process will occur.
If no other route is available, the user will hear a reorder tone.
3. In ARTD, CDN 9:TQ must be assigned for the LCR(S) Flag Route 31 if Trunk Queuing is to operate in
conjunction with LCR(S).

Dial Pulse/ Push-button. This data is valid only when CDN 2:ONSG of Route data is assigned as data
“3”, PB/DP.
STEP 2:ARTD - Assign the LCR(S) route as shown below. For uniformity, always use Route 31 as the LCR(S)
Flag route. In CDN 13:AC, include the LCR(S) access code in LCR(S) development. 
Assign the LCR(S) Flag route as shown below:
RT:  3 1
6-TCL :1 7-L/T :1 8-RLP :2 9-TQ :1 13-AC :1
STEP 3:AT R K - Assign Originating Register Trunks (ORT) to the system in a quantity calculated from
expected traffic. Registers are located on levels 0-3 of any 8RST circuit card. 
Senders must be assigned to the system in a quantity calculated from expected traffic. Senders are
located on levels 4-7 of any 8RST circuit card.

For the outgoing trunks used in LCR(S), refer to those specific route access features. 
STEP 4:MBTK - Assign the Make Idle status to all register sender trunks. 
STEP 5:ANPD - Reserve a level, usually “9”, for LCR or LCR (S) access. Assign Connection Indexes, CI = N,
H; Normal (N) and Hooking (H). Number of Necessary Digits is 1. Busy Lamp Field is not activated.
STEP 6:ASPA - Assign the LCR (S) access code, Type of Service, SRV = LCR (Least Cost Route Selection)
or SRV = LCR (S) (Register Sender LCR). Assign route number 31 associated with this access code.
Assign Connection Indexes, CI = N, H; Normal (N) and Hooking (H). Assign data “1” for second dial
tone, parameter (2nd dial tone). Assign data “1” to AH parameter if Procedure II is used for
AUTHORIZATION CODE [A-20]. 
STEP 7:ARNP - Assign the physical route numbers as assigned in ARTD and relate these routes to the LCR
(S) access code as assigned in ASPA for SRV = LCR (Least Cost Route Selection) / LCR (S) (Register
Sender LCR). The LCR (S) access code is usually “9”. The routes to be assigned will be those routes
listed in the various OPRs of the AOPR command.
Note:
These same routes may also be listed in ASPA for SRV = OGC (Outgoing Call). In that case, these routes may also be
available via direct dial access codes. In ARNP, these access codes are not assigned to implement the LCRS service
in this command. This digit code is the first digit used when assigning the ATDP table.

Programming (cont’d)
STEP 8:ARSC - LCR(S) uses only Bothway or Outgoing Only routes. For these routes, construct allow, deny,
or Toll Restriction applicable tables (Route Restriction Index RRI 2 & 3). Toll Restriction will be
applied to the available route chosen by the LCR (S) selection. Therefore, if a user dials a long distance
number and is restricted in Toll Restriction for a DDD and the only available route is a DDD, the call
will be denied. Toll Restriction acts upon the LCR (S) selection. Also, remember to allow route 31, the
LCR(S) Flag Route to all RSCs. Do not toll restrict the Flag route.
STEP 9:AMND - Assign the Maximum Necessary Digit (MND) the system must translate for a proper route
selection. List the following type of dialing sequences.
Note:
The digits underlined are to be listed in the DC parameter. Overseas or Operator-assisted calls should be listed with
an MND that equals the calculated number of necessary digits. Special dialing sequences such as 411 with an MND
= 4 should also be listed.
Note:
The digits underlined are to be listed in the DC parameter. Overseas or Operator-assisted calls should be listed with
an MND that equals the calculated number of necessary digits. Special dialing sequences such as 411 with an MND
= 4 should also be listed.
STEP 10:AFRS - List the dialing patterns in groups that will be served by a specific sequence of routes. For
example, consider the following dialing patterns: 
9-1-617, 9-1-413, 9-1-207, 9-1-203, 9-1-603.
Each of these area codes exist in the Northeastern United States. From New York City, it may be
determined that the least expensive way to place any of these calls is by a Band 1 WATS, then BAND 5
WATS, then DDD. This determination of routes is labeled as an Outgoing Pattern Route or OPR. In
AFRS, program the Tenant, Route Number (Flag Route 31), The Number Code or dialing patterns, and
the OPR to be chosen when these digits are dialed. (For other OPRs, use the DELETE key.)
STEP 11:AOP R - The AFRS command designates the dialing sequence and the OPR to be selected. The AOPR
defines the routes and in what order these routes will be selected. Assign the following: 
TDPTN No. (TDPTN) - Time of Day Pattern Change. If an AFRS assignment, different OPRs will be
required as a function of time. Designate 1-7 for the Time-of-Day Pattern Change Number (TDC NO.)
to which this OPR is assigned.
OPR No. (OPR) - Outgoing Pattern Route. The number referenced in AFRS, consisting of a series of
routes to be chosen based on number dialed.
Route Advance Number (RA) - The order in which a route will be selected (0-7). For the above
example; RA0 = Band 1, RA1 = Band 5, RA2 = DDD. 
Route Advance End Display (E) - The last route in the route advance group is indicated with data “0”.
All others are indicated with data “1”. 
Route Number (RT) - The physical Route Number to be selected as programmed in ARTD.

L-5 Least Cost Routing - 3/6-Digit
Programming (cont’d)
Skip Digits (SKIP) - The digits to be skipped when translating the dialed digits in AFRS. (If ARTD is
assigned as shown [see CDN 13:AC], always assign “1”, at a minimum, to skip the LCR (S) access
code.) 
Pattern Number Location (PNL) - If digits are to be added after translating the dialed digits in AFRS,
assign a PNL (1-15). The digits to be added are programmed to the respective PNLs in the AADC
command. If no digits are to be added, PNL = 0 should be assigned.
Overflow Tone (OVFT) - Assign if a tone is wanted for the Last Choice Route. If so, assign data “1”
for DDD. 
Priority Restriction Class (PRSC) - Refer to PRIORITY RESTRICTION CLASS in the EPN Feature
and Specification. If this is required, assign PRSC here, using classes 1-15. For all other systems,
always assign PRSC as data “0”.
STEP 12:AADC - If additional digits are required, assign the digits of a Pattern Number Location (PNL) here.
For additional digits totaling 24, use PNL 1-255. For EPN programs, PNL has been expanded to 1-999. 
STEP 13:ASDC - If 6-digit translation is required, whereby both Area and Office codes must be examined, this
command must be used. If no assignment is made in this command, all NXXs are allowed. After an
NXX is assigned (either as allowed or denied), all other NXXs will subsequently be denied. The table
becomes an allow table. Program each office code to be allowed with the EFFECT = 1.
The number of NXXs to be either allowed or denied will determine the method of programming used.
For example, if it is determined that only 555 is to be restricted from a Special Common Carrier, it is
more desirable to allow all NXXs and restrict only this NXX. The method would be as follows: 
To create a deny table assign the following:
Step a): OFLG: ALL
EFFECT: 1 
Step a, allows all NXXs, thus making a deny table. Program each office code with the EFFECT = 0.
Step b): OFLG: INPUT
OFFICE: 555
EFFECT: 0 (Step b restricts 555 only)
Program the kind of route as PFX (Prefix, Foreign Exchange, FX) or as SCC (Special Common
Carrier). 
Choose TDPTN, Time of Day Pattern. Go to ATCP.
Choose the OPR number this 6-digit table will serve.
Choose the RA (Route Advance) Number to specify the route in the OPR. 
When assigning for PFX, each NXX is assigned as the following:* 
EFFECT:0 = Does not require a prefix.
EFFECT:1 = Allow, with 1 + dialing 
(Note).
EFFECT:2 = Only for display.
When assigning for SCC, each NXX is assigned as the following:
EFFECT:0 = Restricted
EFFECT:1 = Allowed 
EFFECT:2 = Not Used
Note:
*When PFX, EFFECT = 1 is assigned. Add the required digit in the AADC command. OFFICE is the next 3 digits
after those assigned in AFRS.
Example: AFRS RT31 = 91214 OPR1
ASDC checks next 3 digits: 91214 XXX XXXX

STEP 14:AT C P - A maximum of eight Time-of-Day Pattern changes (0-7) are available, whereby the system
will refer to different OPR assignments as a function of time. As a result, different routes will be listed
per OPR and therefore different assignments in ASDC. Assign the following:
Times Setting
TO:
FROM: (In Military Time, and only on the half-hour and hour.)
PATTERN NUMBER: (0-7).
Programming for Series 7400 software enhancement
ARTI - (Assignment of Trunk Application Data) - Assign “DCAN (CDN: 54) = 1” for each route, that
may require connection establishment when a call is originated via LCRS with incomplete MND for
the AMND command.
FCCS Programming 
This data setting describes only the additional or replacement commands used to activate FCCS
services. When used as an FCCS feature, these commands replace the non-network commands (for
example, AAED is replaced by AAEDN). Note that the data setting for FCCS service varies depending
on the node.
 (Note)
Note:
When using ASYDL or ASYDN to program an FCCS feature, the basic programming of ASYD is required in addition
to ASYDL or ASYDN.
STEP 1:ARTDN - Assign the route class data for all the logical routes and dummy routes for LCR/LCRS.
6-TCL: 1,7-L/T: 1,8-RLP: 2,9-TQ: 1,13-AC:1
STEP 2:ANPDL/N - Assign the number of necessary digits for LCR/LCRS access. Usually assign DC=9,
NND=1.
STEP 3:ASPAL/N - Assign the LCR/LCRS (Least Cost Routing/Register Sender LCR) access code, Kind of
Service, SRV=LCR/LCRS. Assign Logical Route Number for Dummy Route associated with this
access code. Assign Connection Indexes, CI=N, H; Normal (N) and Hooking (H). Assign data “1” for
second dial tone, parameter (2nd). Assign data “1” to AH parameter if Procedure 2 is used for
AUTHORIZATION CODE [A-20].
STEP 4:ARNPL - Assign access code for LCR/LCRS as assigned in ASPAL/N associated with the logical
routes for each external trunk assigned in ARTD/ARTDN, The LCR/LCRS access code is usually “9”.
The routes to be assigned will be those routes listed in the various OPRs of the AOPRL/N command.
Note:
These same routes may also be listed in ASPAL/N for SRV=OGC (Outgoing Call). In that case, these routes may also
be available via direct dial access code. In ARNPL, these access codes are not assigned to implement the LCRS service
in this command.
STEP 5:ARSCN - Assign the Route Restriction Class for all the Logical Route Number.
STEP 6:AFRSL/N - Allocate the Dial Number necessary to determine the OPR used to select the routes.
STEP 7:AOP RL/N - The AFRSL/N command designates the dialing sequence and the OPR to be selected.
The AOPRL/N defines the routes and in what order these routes will be selected.
Assign the following:
TDPTN No. (TDPTN) - Time of Day Pattern Change. Designate 1-7 if different OPRs will be required
according to the time. Enter “0” if the OPR, assigned in AFRSL/N, is to be applied.
OPR No. (OPR) - Outgoing Pattern Route. Enter the OPR number assigned by AFRSL/N in the range
from 0-4000.
Route Advance Number (RA) - The order in which a route will be selected (0-7).

L-5 Least Cost Routing - 3/6-Digit
FCCS Programming (cont’d)
For example; RA0=Band 1, RA1=Band 5, RA2=DDD.
Route Advance End Display (E) - The last route in the route advance group is indicated with data “0”.
All others are indicated with data “1”.
Logical Route Number (LGRT) - The logical route number to be selected as programmed in ARTDN.
Skip Digits (SKIP) - The number of digits to be skipped from dialed numbers.
Pattern Number Location (PNL) - If digits are to be added after translating the dialed digits in
AFRSL/N, assign PNL in the range from 1 to 999. If no digits to be added, “0” should be entered. The
additional digit data is to be assigned by AADCL/N command.
Overflow Tone (OVFT) - If tone is wanted for the Last Choice Route, assign data “1” for DDD.
Priority Restriction Class (PRSC) - The restriction class referred by the AEFR command is required,
assign PRSC using classes 1-15. If not required, enter data “0”.
STEP 8:AADCL/N - If additional digits are required, assign the digits of a Pattern Number Location (PNL).
For additional digits totaling 24, use PNL 1-999.
STEP 9:ASDCL/N - If 6-digit translation is required, whereby both Area and office codes must be examined,
this command must be used. If no assignment is made in this command, all NXXs are allowed. After
an NXX is assigned (either as allowed or denied), all other NXXs will subsequently be denied. The
table becomes an allow table. Program each office code to be allowed with the EFFECT=1.
The number of NXXs to be either allowed or denied will determine the method of programming used.
For example, if it is determined that only 555 is to be restricted from a Special Common Carrier, it is
more desirable to allow all NXXs and restrict only this NXX. The method would be as follows:
To create a deny table assign the following:
Step a): OFLG=ALL
EFFECT=1
Step a, allows all NXXs, thus making a deny table. Program each office code with the EFFECT=0.
Step b): OFLG=INPUT
OFFICE=555
EFFECT=0 (Step b restricts 555 only)
Program the KIND of route as PFX (Prefix, Foreign Exchange, FX) or as Special Common Carrier.
Choose TDPTN, Time of Day Pattern. Go to ATCP.
Choose the OPR number this 6-digit table will serve.
Choose the RA (Route Advancing Order) to specify the route in the OPR.
When assigning for PFX, each NXX is assigned as the following:
EFFECT:0=Not require a prefix
EFFECT:1=Allow, with 1+dialing (system adds the 1) 
(Note)
EFFECT:2=Not allowed.
When assigning for SCC, each NXX is assigned as the following
EFFECT:0=Restricted
EFFECT:1=Allowed
EFFECT:2=Not used
Note:
*When PFX, EFFECT = 1 is assigned. Add the required digit in the AADCL/N command. OFFICE is the next 3 digits
after those assigned in AFRSL/N.
Example: AFRSL/N RT31 = 91214 OPR1
ASDCL/N checks next 3 digits: 91214 XXX XXXX
