Station Hunting - Terminal S-9
Service Conditions (cont’d)
18. The number of the Hunt Group is unlimited.
19. When all the stations in a Hunt Group are busy:
a.) If a call is directed to a station belonging to a group that has no Secretarial Station, the caller will
hear busy tone.
b.) If a call is directed to a station belonging to a group that has a Secretarial Station, the call will be
forwarded to the Secretarial Station. However, the caller will hear busy tone when the Secretarial
Station is also busy.
20. When the telephone number and Physical Station Number assigned to a pilot station are identical, priority
is attached to STATION HUNTING - TERMINAL via FCCS.
21. The incoming call terminated through FCCS link to the Station Hunt group, which is programmed by the
Physical Station Number, is not hunted.
22. When CALL FORWARDING - ALL CALLS [C-5] has been set to the pilot station, a call directed to the
pilot station is forwarded to the designated station.
23. When activating this feature via the FCCS network, when an incoming call to a pilot station is forwarded
by CALL FORWARDING - BUSY LINE [C-2] and the forwarded party (also a member of another
hunting group) is also busy, the resultant hunt target can be designated from the forwarding side group or
the forwarded side group. This can be specified by the ASYDN command. Refer to Programming for
further information.
24. Phantom telephone number (PHTELN) can also be assigned to each telephone number (a maximum of 16
PHTELNs per TELN, TELNs + PHTELNS in total equal 60,000 or less). The assigned PHTELN may or
may not be the pilot number by the APHNN command setting. See details in Interactions.
25. STATION HUNTING - TERMINAL can be programmed on a node basis even in the use of telephone
numbers. In other words, the feature became available via the data written on the Local Data Memory
(LDM), not only on the Data Memory (DM) or the Network Data Memory (NDM). If this is the case,
conditions are as follows:
a.) The feature is to be programmed by using the telephone number (TELN) of each station.
b.) A hunting group can be configured by a maximum of 100 stations.
c.) There is no limitation to the number of hunting groups per node.
d.) A station can belong to one hunting group only. A station cannot belong to another group
including that for STATION HUNTING - CIRCULAR [S-7] or UNIFORM CALL
DISTRIBUTION (UCD) [U-1].
e.) When all stations to be hunted are busy, the incoming call is forwarded finally to the Secretarial
Station. However, when the Station is not assigned or is also in the busy state, a busy tone is
provided to the caller.
f.) A station, already a member of an existing hunting group by Physical Station Number (referred to
below as the “feature via DM”), can also be a member of the additional hunting group by
telephone number (referred to below as the “feature via LDM”).
g.) The “feature via LDM”, though using the telephone numbers, cannot be used together with that
via FCCS.
h.) When Physical Station Number and telephone number assigned to a pilot station are identical, the
“feature via LDM” takes priority over the “feature via DM”.
i.) A Phantom telephone number, assigned to the telephone number for a pilot station, can also be a
pilot number via the APHNL command setting. See details in Interactions.
26. When activating this feature via the FCCS network, when CALL FORWARDING - BUSY LINE [C-2]
has been set to the pilot station, the service priority (CALL FORWARDING - BUSY LINE or Station
Hunting) can be determined by the ASFC command.

Service Conditions (cont’d)
27. When activating this feature via the FCCS network, when CALL FORWARDING - BUSY LINE [C-2]
or CALL FORWARDING - ALL CALLS [C-5] has been set to a member station and the station is busy,
the station is skipped.
28. When activating this feature via the FCCS network, CALL FORWARDING - DON’T ANSWER [C-3],
will respond to both pilot and non-pilot stations.
29. When activating this feature via the FCCS network, calling back for CALL BACK [C-1] or CALL HOLD
[C-6] is not hunted.
30. Hot Line station can be assigned to a station of the Hunting Group activated via FCCS link.
31. A Station Hunting - Terminal group may accommodate members from four different Fusion Point Codes.
Interactions
1. 255 secretaries are allowed for the system. Each time a secretary is assigned to a group, one of the 255
secretarial positions is expended, regardless of whether or not it is one secretary for multiple groups or
different secretaries for multiple groups.
2. Secretaries are not counted as one of the 100 allowed stations per group.
3. The stations in the Station Hunting group must first be programmed with the ASDT command.
4. CALL FORWARDING-ALL CALLS [C-5]: If Station A, assigned to a Hunt group and not the Pilot
station, activates CALL FORWARDING-ALL CALLS to Station B:
a.) A direct call to Station A is forwarded to Station B. 
b.) Calls placed to the STATION HUNTING-TERMINAL group will bypass Station A. 
c.) When hunting occurs, if Station A is the only idle station in the hunting pattern, a busy tone is
returned to the calling party.
d.) During a Call Forward-Override call from Station B to Station A, if station A is idle, Station A
will ring. If Station A is busy, the call will not hunt. 
e.) If the Pilot sets CALL FORWARDING-ALL CALLS [C-5] to Station B: During a Call Forward-
Override call from Station B to the Pilot, if the Pilot station is idle, the Pilot will ring. If the Pilot
station is busy, the call will hunt.

5. CALL FORWARDING-BUSY LINE/DON’T ANSWER [C-2, 3]: If Station A is in a STATION
HUNTING-TERMINAL group and not the Pilot station, it will activate CALL FORWARDING-BUSY
LINE/DON’T ANSWER to Station B:
a.) Any call to Station A will respond to CALL FORWARDING-DON’T ANSWER [C-3]. 
b.) A direct call to Station A will respond to CALL FORWARDING-BUSY LINE [C-2]. 
c.) A call to the STATION HUNTING-TERMINAL group will bypass Station A if that station is
both busy and has set CALL FORWARDING-BUSY LINE [C-2]. The next station in the group
will ring. 
d.) A CALL FORWARDING-OVERRIDE call from Station B to Station A will not hunt if Station A
is busy. 
e.) If the Pilot sets CALL FORWARDING-BUSY LINE [C-2] to Station B: During a Call Forward-
Override call from Station B to the Pilot, if the Pilot station is idle, the Pilot will ring. If the Pilot
station is busy, the call will hunt.
6. STATION MESSAGE DETAIL RECORDING [S-10]: The number recorded is the telephone number
where the call actually terminates.
7. STATION HUNTING-CIRCULAR supersedes the ATTENDANT CAMP-ON WITH TONE
INDICATION [A-1] and CALL WAITING-TERMINATING [C-12] features.
8. When using a Phantom Number for the pilot station, consider the following:
a.) Whether to use the Phantom Number to start the station hunt or not can be selected by the APHN
command. When using the Phantom Number, assign “1” in the PH parameter. If not, assign “0”.
b.) When PH = 1: Station hunt starts by dialing either the pilot station number or its Phantom
Number. Both numbers can be the pilot number.

provided when the Phantom Number is dialed.
9. The lead station is the first station programmed in the ASHP command.
10. When Programmed on LDM:
a.) When activating this feature via FCCS, when CALL FORWARDING - ALL CALLS [C-5] is in
service at a pilot station, a call directed to the station is forwarded to the designated station.
b.) When activating this feature via FCCS, when an incoming call to a pilot station is forwarded by
CALL FORWARDING - BUSY LINE [C-2] and the forwarded party (also a member of another
hunting group) is also busy, the resultant hunt target can be designated from the forwarding side
group or the forwarded side group. This can be specified by the ASYD command. For further
information, refer to Programming.
c.) When activating this feature via FCCS, if the following occurs, a non-pilot station is skipped in
the hunting circulation process:
 When CALL FORWARDING - ALL CALLS [C-5] is set at the non-pilot station.
 When CALL FORWARDING - BUSY LINE [C-2] is set at the non-pilot station and the station
is actually in the busy state.
d.) When activating this feature via FCCS, CALL FORWARDING - DON’T ANSWER [C-3] will
respond to any call (both pilot and non-pilot stations). After a certain period of no answer, the call
is forwarded to the designated station.
e.) When activating this feature via FCCS, this feature is not available for a call in recall state by
CALL BACK [C-1] or CALL HOLD [C-6].

Service Conditions
 RS232C Interface Conditions:
1. SMDR information facilitates analysis of trunk traffic and can be readily applied for cost allocation or
billing purposes.
2. SMDR may be programmed to record either all outgoing calls or only toll calls, depending upon user
requirements.
3. Both incomplete and abandoned calls will be discarded by the SMDR.
4. When ROUTE ADVANCE [R-6] or LEAST COST ROUTING (LCR) - 3/6-DIGIT [L-5] is provided with
the system, SMDR will record the route number selected.
5. The maximum number of digits dialed cannot exceed 24.
6. When customer-owned computer equipment is connected via RS232C interface, SMDR information will
be transmitted directly to the computer as each call record is completed.
7. If the outgoing call is directed to a trunk that cannot give answer supervision from the Central Office, the
start of call time is 18 seconds after the last digit is dialed. This timer value is set on the System Data.

10. Supervision on the status of the external RS232C terminal is not performed.
11. FORCED ACCOUNT CODE [F-7] can be recorded on SMDR, for INWATS and CO incoming calls,
when used in conjunction with the REMOTE ACCESS TO SYSTEM [R-2] service feature.
12. FORCED ACCOUNT CODE [F-7] cannot be registered on SMDR if the incoming REMOTE ACCESS
TO SYSTEM [R-2] calls are terminated to stations via night service or DID [D-8].
13. For REMOTE ACCESS TO SYSTEM [R-2] tandem connections, the FORCED ACCOUNT CODE [F-
7] is registered for outgoing trunks only.
14. The PBX can accommodate up to 7 active ports or 4 redundant ports. Additional hardware is required.
15. AUTHORIZATION CODE [A-20] can be recorded on SMDR.
16. The maximum number of simultaneous calls can be stored in the system memory (active calls) is 28,000.
When a call is completed, the record is sent to the output device and is removed from memory.
17. If an overflow occurs, calls are allowed to complete and are not recorded.
18. ATTENDANT-CONTROLLED CONFERENCE [A-2]: If the Attendant adds a trunk to the conference,
the Attendant conference line terminal is recorded.
19. LEAST COST ROUTING - 3/6-DIGIT [L-5]: The calling party can dial an ACCOUNT CODE [A-18]
before the LCR access code. The called number is recorded (as modified for sending).
20. If an ACCOUNT CODE [A-18] is dialed, the maximum digits of the called number is 22. 
21. CENTRALIZED ATTENDANT SERVICE (CAS) [C-20]: The SMDR record is provided for calls
extended outward by a CAS Attendant.
22. DIRECT INWARD DIALING (DID) trunk calls [D-8]: If the call is to the Attendant, the Attendant can
input an ACCOUNT CODE [A-18] before extending the call.
23. INDIVIDUAL TRUNK ACCESS [I-4]: The Attendant cannot dial in an SMDR account code before using
direct trunk selection.
24. Incoming TIE trunk calls: If an incoming call to the Attendant is extended, the Attendant can input an
ACCOUNT CODE [A-18].
25. SERIAL CALL [S-15]: The duration of the total call is recorded on the last station call.
26. STATION HUNTING [S-7, 8, 9]: The hunted-to station is recorded in the called number field.
27. TANDEM TIE TRUNK [T-1] Calls: The calling number is the incoming trunk route plus trunk number;
the called number is the number dialed.
28. UNIFORM CALL DISTRIBUTION (UCD) [U-1]: The calling number is the incoming trunk route plus
trunk number. If the call is to a station, the station answering the number is recorded as the dialed number.
29. On an incoming trunk call to the Attendant, the Attendant call record will start upon answering and
complete when the Attendant releases. A station call record will start when the Attendant releases and
complete when the station goes on-hook. If required, a station record will not be generated if the station
does not answer.
30. A system option is available to allow or restrict call completion in the case where a failure occurs in
transmitting SMDR data from the processor to the I/O port.

Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR) S-10
Service Conditions (cont’d)
31. Additional hardware is required.
32. Call Time specification for the FCCS network:
 The base for Call Start Time and Call End Time is the time in the calling party-side node.
 In case there is time difference between each node, related time difference data, based on the UCT
(Universal Coordinated Time) standard, should be written in Network Data Memory (NDM) by using
the ATDF command.
 Because billing information gathering is performed in the called party-side node, the Call Start Time in
the originating node is determined in a way the deduction of time between calling and called party nodes
is added or subtracted to/from the called party-side time. (If there is no time difference data in any [both]
of the nodes, the Call Start Time is specified automatically by that in the called party-side node.)
 A counter, not the clock providing the current time, is used for Call End Time calculation. The
calculation method is as follows:
a.) Call Start Time (by using the clock) and the current counter value are registered to the Call Base
Table, soon after a line connection is established.
b.) Upon the call completion, the deduction between the counter value shown in a.) and that renewed
during the call exchange is calculated.
c.) The deduction is transformed to a time (hour, minute, second, milli-second) format.
d.) The transformed time is added to the Call Start Time registered in a.)-End.
 The counter-based time is renewed in every 16.384 msec.
33. Maximum number of active calls available for concurrent storage in the system memory is 28,000 per
system. When a call is completed, the record is sent to the output device and is removed from the memory.
34. If an overflow occurs, calls are allowed to complete but are not recorded.
35. To output the FCCS-related billing data, the external SMDR terminal should be compatible also with the
IMX text format patterns.
36. When a station originates an outgoing trunk call using a trunk in the remote node (the station and the trunk
belong to an FCCS network), the billing information for the station to trunk connection is not recorded.
37. Because the FCCS service achieves a completely fused link between multiple distant nodes, intrastation
connections and node-to-node connections are theoretically considered identical.
38. When a line connection is established on the FCCS link, the billing data concerned is collected fully in the
called station-side node, not in the calling station side. The collected data is then transmitted to the SMDR
terminal as the call finishes.
39. Multiple Center Nodes can be assigned on a FCCS network for centralized billing purposes.
40. Transmission of call base table with 220 bytes.
