AUTOMATIC ROUTE SELECTION Description Automatic Route Selection (ARS) provides call routing and call restriction based on the digits a user dials. ARS lets the system administrator obtain the most cost-effective use of the system’s connected long distance carriers. ARS is an on-line call routing program that the system administrator can customize from the programming ter- minal. The program accommodates over 8,000 call routing choices -- without a custom-ordered rate structure database. ARS allows the system administrator to make modifications to the routing choices quickly and easily. This is often necessary as the cost structure of the connected services change. ARS provides: Call Routing ARS can apply 3-digit (Area Code) and 6-digit (Area Code and Exchange) analysis to every number Dialing Translation (Special Dialing Instructions) ARS can automatically execute stored dialing instructions when it chooses a route for a call Time of Day Selection The system administrator can program route selection according to the time of day/day of week. Hierarchical Class of Service Control ARS allows or denies call route choices based on an extension’s Class of Service. 1 Forced Authorization Code Designated routes may require the user to enter an Authorization Code before ARS allows routing. This code is verifiable and is enforced by an extension’s Class of Service. Separate Routing for Operator Assisted, International and Equal Access Calls To provide unique control, the system administrator may program separate routing instructions for Operator As- sisted, International and Equal Access calls. Independently Programmed Restriction for Exchanges 976 and 555 Restriction for these exchanges is hierarchical according to an extension’s Class of Service. Inter-Lata Dialing ARS accommodates 10-digit inter-lata local calls. As the telco adds area codes to a dialing area, local calls can be either seven or 10 digits long. This occurs when the telco has to use NNX type numbers (e.g., 223) as area codes. A 10-digit call from one part of the adjacent area code may be a local call. However, the same call dialed from a more distant part of the adjacent area code may be a toll call. In AUX Module >02.10, the system can wait six seconds after the last digit dialed before routing the call through ARS. This will occur if the first three digits dialed look like an area code (NPA) and the total number of digits dialed is 7 or 10. You must program ARS routing to accommodate the 10-digit local call. In previous software versions, the system would dial out after the user entered 7 of the 10 digits for their inter- lata local call. After ARS routed the call, the user would then have to manually dial the last three digits. Features: Introduction - Direct Trunk Access AUTOMATIC ROUTE SELECTION 40 FEATURESN1870SWG04 Issue 1-0 1Class of Service options may interact with ARS. For example, If CP-Allow Only Intercom Calls at Night (BY0:2) is enabled (1), the extension cannot use ARS at night.
Outdialing Forced Account Codes Available in Software Levels: BaseAUX N/A > 02.10 A system with ARS can delay outdialing a Forced Account Code. You may want to enable this option if the se- lected carrier uses call accounting on a per-call basis. The delay provides the carrier with adequate time to set up their DTMF detection circuits. Without the delay, the system could outdial the Account Code digits before the carrier was ready to receive them. After the user dials their outside call and Account Code as usual, the system: •Routes the call through ARS to the appropriate carrier. •Outdials the digits the user dials. (The ARS Dial Treatment may modify these digits.) •Waits a programmable interval and then dials the Account Code. To program this option: •Make sure Forced Account Codes are enabled (QL- Mandatory Account Codes = Y). •Set the length of the delay in QT- System Timers, Centrex-Type Feature Key Delay (5-99, in 100 mS increments [5 = 500 mS]). •In QX- Suppress # When Speed Dialing, Enter Y for Suppress # Key Tone Enter Y for Transmit Acct. Code Automatic Route Selection requires an AUX Module. If desired, you can program up to 64 ARS Authorization codes. (The large systems have 184 codes.) For complete details on ARS, including instructions for using the ARS editor (GA command), refer to Appendix A. Conditions (A.) Do not use ARS behind a Centrex/PBX. In addition, ARS is intended for areas that use the North Ameri- can Number Plan (NANP). (B.) ARS requires an AUX Module. (C.) When a telephone number is manually dialed the DTMF on tones = 250 mS. When the system redials the DTMF on tones = 135 mS. Default Configuration ARS not programmed. Programming Required Programming ➣E- Trunks, E4- Next Trunk in Outbound Rotary (Hybrid Only) ARS requires outbound trunk rotaries. This prompt determines the selection sequence for trunks within each rotary. ➣E- Trunks, E7- Trunk Service Number Assign a Service Number to each trunk used for ARS. ARS routes calls to Service Numbers, not individ- ual trunks. [01-10] ➣E- Trunks, EA- Trunk Group Assign. (First Trunk in Group), Hybrid Group trunks in rotaries by assigning each one the same First Trunk in Group number. ➣GA- ARS Editor Program the ARS options. Refer to Appendix A for complete details. Features: Introduction - Direct Trunk Access AUTOMATIC ROUTE SELECTION N1870SWG04 Issue 1-0FEATURES 41
➣QL- ARS/Account Codes, ARS Enable (Hybrid Only) Enter 2 to enable ARS. Do not enter 2 without programming trunks and services. ➣QL- ARS/Account Codes, Number of Services Designate how many services (trunk rotaries) ARS will use. [01-10] ➣QL- ARS/Account Codes, Service Line Numbers Indicate the trunk rotary master number for each of the rotaries used by ARS. This should correspond to the EA- First Trunk in Group entry. If the Service Line Number is entered as 00, or left at default (00), this will deny calls using that Service Number. Other Programming ➣E- Extensions, E3- Extension Class of Service ARS routing is based on an extension’s Class of Service number. [00-27, 30 for operators] ➣E- Extensions, E8- Line Access Options, Allow Line Code Dial-Up If enabled, users may be able to dial trunk access codes (e.g., 801) to bypass ARS. [Y=allow, N=deny] ➣E- Extensions, E8- Line Access Options, Access to Groups 90-95 Allow access to group 90 (the ARS access code). If you allow access to 91-95, users may be able to dial these codes to bypass ARS. Users can always dial groups 96-98. [Y=allow, N=deny] ➣E- Extensions, E8- Line Access Options, Key Access to Outbound Lines If enabled, user may be able to press a line key to bypass ARS. [Y=allow, N=deny] ➣E- Extensions, ED- Trunk Control, Access Control An extension must have access to the trunks selected by ARS. [Y=allow, N=deny] ➣E- Extensions, ED- Trunk Control, Call-Out Control An extension must have Call-Out to the trunks selected by ARS. [Y=allow, N=deny] ➣E- Trunks, E2- Trunk Circuit Type Trunks within each ARS Service Group should have the same circuit type. (see page 394) ➣KS- Programming Keys for Keysets An extension can have a loop key for ARS access. [9=switched loop, 9 and a line group # (0-8)=fixed loop] ➣QC- Operator Programming, Operator Extensions Make sure the main operator is port 00 (normally extension 300). ➣QF- Line Grp Access (First Trunk in Group), Hybrid Only Correlate the first trunk in a trunk rotary (e.g., 801) to one of nine trunk rotary numbers (90-98). The sys- tem requires this correlation when setting up trunk rotaries. Use the trunk access code (e.g., 801 or L01) that corresponds to the EA- First Trunk in Group entry. ➣QQ- ’1’ Prefix Required for NPA Calls If the system is in a conflict area, enter Y. Enter N if the system is not in a conflict area. In an area with a 10-digit numbering plan and this option is enabled (Y), then create a Dial Treatment that strips the 1 prefix. See Appendix A for more details. ➣QT- System Timers, Dialtone Detection Counter Set the length of the dial tone detection interval. ARS Dial Treatments (option P) use this interval. See Appendix A for more details. [1-6] ➣QW- ARS Authorization Codes If required, enter ARS Dial Treatment Authorization codes. See Appendix A for more details. [10 digits maximum] ➣QX- Suppress ’#’ When Speed Dialing If ARS Dial Treatments outdial the # digit, enter N. To suppress outdialing the #, enter Y. See Appendix A for more details. ➣QY- Single Digit Line Access If enabled, users can dial 9 (instead of 90) for ARS.

Related Features Account Code Capability ARS can optionally utilize the system’s Account Codes. Caller ID ARS can block outgoing Caller ID information. You may need to block Caller ID for certain sites (such as crisis centers) that need to keep their identity confidential. To do this, insert the Caller ID block code (e.g., *67) in the ARS Dial Treatments. Central Office Calls, Placing ARS may restrict the numbers a user may dial. Direct Trunk Access Direct Trunk Access bypasses ARS. Equal Access Compatibility ARS has a unique way of handling these calls. Refer to the feature for the specifics. Forced Trunk Disconnect The system subjects the call on the released trunk to normal ARS routing or Toll Restriction. Last Number Redial Unless the user preselects a trunk, the system enforces ARS for Last Number Redial calls. Line (Trunk) Queuing If the system has ARS, Line Queuing queues for the least costly route. NANP Compatibility The North American Numbering Plan may affect ARS programming in your region. PBX/Centrex Compatibility Do not use ARS behind a Centrex/PBX. A PBX trunk should not normally be in an ARS service group. For ARS to route calls to PBX lines: •Place the PBX lines in unique service groups •Have digit insertion (Dial Treatments) insert the PBX access codes for each number dialed Private Line The system applies the same ARS to Private Lines as it applies to other trunks. Save The system subjects a saved number to the same routing and restriction as if the user manually dialed. The system always routes a saved number through ARS, unless the user manually selects a trunk. Special Services and OCC Compatibility ARS can have digit insertion/dialing translation capabilities. This makes selecting special services for outgoing calls transparent to extension users. Speed Dial Speed Dial can route calls through ARS or optionally bypass ARS routing. Tenant Service Each system can have only one ARS package, shared by all tenants. Time and Date Setting ARS uses time and date when routing calls. Toll Restriction When a user dials 9 or 90 for ARS, ARS overrides Toll Restriction. Volume Controls With AUX Module > 02.10, pressing VOL UP or VOL DN while listening to ARS dial tone has no effect on the dial tone volume. The ARS dial tone volume is preset to an optimum level in system software. It cannot be adjusted by the user.

BACKGROUND MUSIC Description Background Music (BGM) sends music from a customer-provided music source to the speakers in keysets and ESL telephones. If an extension user activates it, BGM plays whenever the user’s extension is idle. Incoming calls and Page announcements override BGM. Optionally, BGM can also play over the external paging zones. Background Music requires a customer-provided music source. BGM disables the main CEU’s 4th CO line cir- cuit. Conditions (A.) Background Music disables the fourth trunk circuit on the first CO Module in the main CEU. Although you connect to the CEU MOH terminals, you cannot use the fourth trunk circuit for trunks. The music source (tape deck, receiver, etc.) must be compatible with the following system specifications. Input Imepdance 100K Ohms Maximum Input -10 dBm (244 mV AC) (B.) A system reset turns off BGM at all extensions. Default Configuration BGM trunk not assigned. Programming Required Programming ➣E- Trunks, E2- Trunk Circuit Type The trunk used for BGM must be circuit type X. If you want to use the BGM trunk later on for another function, remember to: •Enter N for QM- BGM •Change the trunk to the desired circuit type (using the E2 option) •Perform a side tone test on the trunk (using the IS- Side Tone Test option) ➣QM- Music/Relay Control, BGM Enter Y(es) - this will also enable MOH for internal calls. Other Programming ➣QM- Music/Relay Control, BGM on External Page Zones Allow/disallow BGM to play over the external paging zones. For proper operation, access the Paging zone once after enabling this option. [Y=allow, N=deny] Related Features Attendant Positions BGM does not play at attendant extensions. Do Not Disturb When a user activates DND, BGM turns off. Once the user deactivates DND, BGM remains off. Music on Hold BGM and Music on Hold can share the same music source, if desired. Enabling BGM also enables MOH for internal calls. Paging The External Paging zones can also broadcast Background Music.

BATTERY BACKUP Description Battery Backup allows the system to operate normally during AC power failures and brownouts. For each CEU, Battery Backup requires the installation of an optional Battery Backup Unit. The Valcom VB260 Battery Backup Unit is recommended. Battery Backup will power a fully loaded system for about two hours. The system also provides short-term backup of system memory and the system time and date (Real Time Clock). These options are stores in Random Access Memory (RAM). The system retains the options stored in RAM memory for at least one week without AC power. The Real Time Clock is only available in systems with an AUX Module. The Real Time Clock maintains the correct date and time for at least one week without AC power. If the system doesn’t have an AUX Module, it stores the time of the power failure in memory. The system starts from that stored time when power is restored. Conditions The AUX Module uses a permanently installed supercap capacitor. Default Configuration None Programming None Related Features Time and Date Setting Feature Operation If installed, Battery Backup is automatic during AC power failures and brownouts.

CALL COVERAGE KEYS Description A Call Coverage key gives an extension user one-touch call pickup, Transfer and Intercom for the assigned ex- tension. This simplifies phone operation for co-workers that frequently cover each other’s calls. Additionally, each extension user can program the ringing options for their Call Coverage keys. A Call Coverage key also shows the status of the covered extension: When the key is...The covered extension is... Off Idle On Busy Flashing slowly Ringing Flashing fast DND Conditions None Default Configuration No Call Coverage Keys programmed. Programming Required Programming ➣KS- Programming Keys for Keysets Designate programmable keys as Call Coverage keys. Also, program the ringing option for Call Cover- age Keys (no ring, delayed ring or immediate ring). [S + Extension #] Other Programming ➣E- Extensions, ED- Trunk Control, Access Control To intercept outside calls, the extension must have access to the covered extension’s trunks. [Y=allow, N=deny] ➣QT- System Timers, Delayed Ring Interval Set the Delayed Ring Interval for Call Coverage Keys with delayed ringing. [1-10] Related Features Attendant Positions A keyset can be programmed to have a Call Coverage Key for an attendant. Unlike other extensions, an Attendant cannot program Call Coverage Key ringing options from their telephone. Automatic Call Distribution / Extension Hunting An extension can have a Call Coverage key for an ACD/UCD hunt group. Designate a programmable key as a Call Coverage key using the ACD/UCD master extension number. The key activates only when all group members are busy. This can only occur if the system has an AUX Module. Automatic Handsfree If the system has Automatic Handsfree, the extension user can just press the Call Coverage key. Call Forwarding Call Forwarding does not reroute calls ringing a Call Coverage Key. Features: Introduction - Direct Trunk Access CALL COVERAGE KEYS 48 FEATURESN1870SWG04 Issue 1-0
