Processor Type:DK14, DK40i, All RCTUs
Program Type:Least Cost Routing
Initialized Default:Assigns an LCR Dial Zero Time-out value of 06
Program 50-6 Overview
Enter the maximum number of seconds LCR waits for a user to dial additional digits after a 0, 
before it routes the call to an operator for assistance. LCR waits this number of seconds to receive 
additional digits that indicate charge calls, collect calls or other 0+ calls.
©The allowed range is 04~10 seconds. Always enter two digits.
©Dial 0 calls will be restricted when using 0 + Credit Card calling (Program 43) if a telephone 
number is not dialed after dialing 0 or if Dial 0 is restricted in Program 46 (10~80).
Overview for Programs 51~54
These programs provide the system with directions for routing all possible calls, made by all 
possible users at all possible times of day. Tables for Programs 51~54 appear on LCR Route Plan 
Numbers 1~16. The following instructions show how to fill in individual tables within the plans. 
Each of the following program tables must be completed for all plans.
Programs 51~54 defines LCR route plans (quantities given below):
These separate plans provide the customer flexibility enough to route different area codes and 
exception office codes over different line groups.

Program 51 – LCR Area Codes
Strata DK Programming 5/995-11
Least Cost Routing
Program 51 Overview
Use Program 51 to define which area code calls are placed over which LCR Plan Number (01~08 
or 01~16). Therefore, calls made to all area codes are routed over route definitions defined in 
Program 54 for Plan 08 or 16, following the time schedule specified by Program 53 for Plan 08 or 
16 (unless other assignments are made in plans 1~15). 
Every route plan can be assigned to define a set of area codes and/or office codes.
011 can be entered as an Area Code into any LCR plan to route direct dial international calls via 
LCR.
Example
Any area code entered in a Program 51 LCR area code table for plans 1~15 is subtracted from Plan 
16. An area code cannot be lost. If it is subsequently deleted from Plans 01~07 or Plans 01~15, 
LCR software automatically adds it to Plan 08 or 16.
Remember that LCR matches the home area code entered in Program 50-2 with the LCR route 
plan containing the home area code in its Area Code Table. The home area code must be entered 
into one of the 16 available LCR route plans through Program 51. Thus, LCR is informed of how 
to handle local calls.
Typically, systems are configured to have the LCR route plan containing the home area code as the 
same as the local route plan defined in Program 50-5. This usually is programmed by the installer 
to be Route Plan Number 1, rather than the default Plan 08 or 16.
HMIS Example
Plan 01 includes home area code, 800, 888. Plan 08 includes long distance area codes. Plan 16 is 
used for RCTUC/D and RCTUE/F processors. The following table gives you an example of how 
you might set up Program 51 for the HMIS:

Program 52 – LCR Office Code Exceptions for Specified Area Code
Strata DK Programming 5/995-13
Least Cost Routing
Program 52 Overview
This Office Code exception table enables the user the flexibility of routing specific office codes 
through a different call plan than other office codes used with that area code.
©Any number of exception code tables can be assigned to each route plan, although each 
exception table can only be used once system-wide.
©Every route plan can be assigned to define a set of area codes and office code exceptions or a 
set of office code exceptions.
©This program applies to both examples listed below. In the first case, an office code exception 
table does not need to be defined in addition to the area codes in Program 51, but it may. In the 
second case, the plan only pertains to exception office codes for certain area codes.
©To route International (011) calls over any selected plan by Country Code, program 011 as the 
Area Code and the Country Code as the Office Code in Program 52 in any Exception Code 
Table. If the Country Code is two digits, add 10, 3-digit Office Codes as follows: XX0 through 
XX9, where XX is the Country Code.
Example 1
In the first example, office code exception tables are defined to the area code table. Use the 
continuation sheet to define the exception office codes. As many as 16 office code exception tables 
can be linked to a plan, but each exception table can only be used once. When using the 
continuation sheet, be sure that the same exception table is not assigned to more than one plan.
1. Turn to the continuation sheet (that follows Plan 16 record sheet).
2. Determine the plan number where the exception office codes will be routed.
3. Fill in the area code of the exception office codes in the spaces provided by the correct plan 
number. These office codes will be routed differently than the overall area code.
4. Enter the specific office codes that are to be routed differently.
Example 2
In the second example, the route plan only applies to office code exceptions. The first office code 
exception table may be documented on the LCR Plan record sheet:
1. Check the box on the record sheet next to Office Code Exception Table number.
2. Enter the number of the exception table (01~16). Make sure this table number is not entered on 
any other plan, or on the continuation sheet.
3. Enter the applicable area code.
4. Enter the specific office codes that are to be routed differently than the area code.

Program 53 – LCR Schedule Assignments for LCR Plans
Strata DK Programming 5/995-15
Least Cost Routing
Program 53 Overview
This program assigns up to three time schedules to each plan. Each time schedule consists of four 
or six different route definition choices (defined in Program 54) available to the eight station 
groups (defined in Program 56). It may be helpful to complete Program 54 portions of the plans 
and Program 56 before proceeding.
If Schedules 1 & 2 start at the same time, then Time of Day schedule change does not occur, and 
data only needs to be entered for Schedule 1.
Typical Installation Without Time Schedule Feature
In most cases, an installation does require use of the time schedule feature. To reflect this on the 
record sheets for Plans 01~16:
1. Enter the same Schedule Start Times for Schedules 1 and 2. Use the military format - HH:MM 
(Hours:Minutes). Fill in all four digits.
NoteIf LCR software sees Schedules 1 and 2 have the same start times, then it only looks at 
Schedule 1 for route definitions.
2. Enter Route Definition numbers for Schedules 1 and 2. Four definitions (route pick or choices) 
can be entered for each group.
©LCR Station (Class) Groups 1~8 are assigned in Program 56.
©LCR Route Definition numbers 1~4 or 1~6 are defined in Program 54.
3. The order in which the route definitions are entered defines the order of LCR line selection. 
The most desirable route should be entered in the left-most position, and the least desirable 
route in the right-most position.
4.If “1” is assigned to Station Group 1, and 1 for route definition only, then those assigned will 
only be able to use Route Definition 1, thereby restricting them during times that route 
definition 1 is not allowed.
5. Keep in mind that the route definition number is being entered, not the CO line group number. 
The definitions are assigned in Program 54.
Installation Requiring Time Scheduling Feature
When an installation requires the time scheduling feature to be programmed, three “shifts” of route 
definitions can be assigned per station group. To reflect this on the record sheet, substitute Step 1 
of the procedure described for the typical customer with the following:
äEnter the Schedule Start Times for Schedules 1, 2 and 3. Use military time, in the format 
HH:MM (Hours:Minutes). Fill in all four digits. Initialized data assigns “0000” to all times.
©Start time for schedule 2 is the stop time for schedule 1.
©Start time for schedule 3 is the stop time for schedule 2.
©Start time for schedule 1 is the stop time for schedule 3.
HMIS Example
Enter LCR schedule assignments for LCR plan 01, 02 and 08/16. Stations in groups 1, 2, and 3 are 
controlled by HMIS. The following table gives you an example of how you might set up Program 
53 for the HMIS:

Route Definition Number
Route definitions define the CO line group and modified digit tables used for each LCR Plan. See 
the legend for the number of route definition numbers for your processor.
CO Line Group (assigned in Program 16)
Each line group represents a type of service, e.g., special common carrier, foreign exchange, local 
line group, etc. Program 40 denies incoming and outgoing line access to stations, including LCR 
access. Program 41 allows line access to stations using LCR only for outgoing calls when enabled.
Modified Digits Table
Refer to Programs 55-0, 55-1 and 55-2. The system handles line groups differently, according to 
which modified digits table was assigned in Program 54.
