maximum of 12 digits per code)
• a three-digit route number (000-999)
• a line pool
• DialOut digits (up to 24 digits)
• a schedule (programmed in Services), which allows three 
alternate routes per schedule

Routing table
Call by Call Service information for outgoing calls is recorded 
in the Routing Service section of the Programing Record. 
The following is an example of a Routing Table containing 
CbC programming.
The service identifier (SID) depends on the selected service 
type. For example, with NI-2 protocol.

When a PRI protocol is selected or changed, the Service Type 
and Service ID fields are automatically cleared for each entry

The following are the default numbers automatically assigned 
in a MICS 6.1 system:
To make the digits available for use with destination codes, 
you must change the DN length of B1 and B2 DNs, depending 
on your system size. This can be done either at system startup 
or in System prgrming. The examples shown above use a 
three-digit DN length, unless stated otherwise.

digit, will automatically use lines dedicated to local service.
The first step is to build a route (under Services/Routing 
Service/Routing).
