Chapter 3. System Features  
Section 700 - Operation  
AEC Disconnect  
Description  
This feature allows the System to send a disconnect signal of 1 second to an analog device indicating  
that the calling party has hung up (terminated the call). This feature is useful with a Third-party Voice  
Mail or an Answering Machine. By default this feature is disabled.  
Hardware Requirements  
AEC port

FF3-0: Loop Disconnect Signal  
Considerations  
The 1 second time duration of the disconnect signal is fixed. (It cannot be changed.)  
Attendant Groups  
CPC-96, CPC-288, and CPC-576 Version 1.0  
Description  
An attendant phone is often used as a central answering point for other extensions. In addition,  
attendant phones frequently have special capabilities for monitoring and programming extensions.  
You can reach the assigned attendant group by dialing the feature access code for Attendant Calls  
(usually 0). If an attendant phone is available but does not answer within a set time, the call will move  
to the next available attendant phone. If all members of the attendant group are busy for a specified  
time, the call can be forwarded to other extensions or another hunt group. The system allows up to 20  
extensions to be included in an attendant group.

FF2: Ring Type  
Considerations  
The System allows one attendant group for each system mode (Day 1, Day 2, and Night).  
An attendant group can contain both real extensions and virtual extensions. If virtual, several  
phones can be made to ring at the same time.  
Attendant groups can use only Pilot Terminal Hunt Group or Pilot Distributed Hunt Group. For  
more information, see “Hunting Groups” on page 46.

Section 700 - Operation  
Chapter 3. System Features  
The pilot number for an attendant group is flexible (i.e., any extension number can be designated  
as the pilot [not a real extension]).  
If a member of the attendant group has Do-Not-Disturb (DND) or Call Forwarding - All set, that  
phone is temporarily removed from the attendant group.  
If a member of the attendant group has Call Forwarding - Busy set and the extension is busy, the  
call goes to the next phone in the attendant group.  
If all members are busy for the duration of the busy queuing timer, the call can be forwarded to  
another hunt group or another extension.  
Attendant groups support the following call types:  
• Direct Inward Dialing (DID) / Dialed Number Identification Service (DNIS) / Direct  
Dial Inward (DDI)  
• Direct Inward System Access (DISA)  
• Extension calls  
• Private network attendant calls  
• Call reversion  
• Call forwarded to Attendant Hunt Group  
Automatic Call Distributor  
Description  
The System provides an optional Automatic Call Distributor (ACD) for efficient presentation,  
handling, and management of incoming calls to one or more groups of specialized users.  
This optional Built-in ACD is contained on a single circuit card that is installed in the System. This  
“built-in” capability eliminates the need for custom wiring and other installation.  
Each specialized user is known as an ACD agent. Each agent position is equipped with a large display  
telephone (VB-44225) that provides Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) messages to assist the agent in

Automatic Route Selection  
Description  
When Automatic Route Selection (ARS) is enabled, the system follows a preselected route for calls.  
Usually the selected routing is the least cost route.  
ARS works in conjunction with Toll Restriction Service (TRS). Calls can be denied based on the  
programmed TRS level for the originating party. (For more information, see “Ringing Modes” on  
page 59.)  
Three levels of ARS checking are available based on the dialed number following the ARS  
access code:  
Direct Route Selection: The simplest form of ARS routing that upon ARS entry  
(enter 9) directly selects the trunk group and any dialed number modification.  
Route List Selection: A more complex routing that includes up to 5 alternative  
levels of route selection and includes TRS level checking.  
Time List Selection: The most complex routing that determines the appropriate  
route list based upon the day and time.  
Forced ARS is available on an Extension Class of Service (COS) basis.  
A special day list provides tailored ARS routing for up to 20 holidays, vacation days, etc.  
Automatic modification of dialed numbers is available. This includes deleting up to 24 prefix  
digits and adding up to a 10-digit prefix and a 10-digit suffix. The modification of dialed  
numbers can include pauses, Dual Tone Multifrequency (DTMF) conversion, itemized code  
(extension number) and an authorization code. (Itemized code and authorization are not used  
in some areas.)  
Up to 8 authorization codes are available.  
For more information on ARS/TRS, see Appendix A “ARS and TRS Operation” on page 291.

Background Music/MOH Separation  
Description  
Separate inputs are provided for Background Music and Music-on-Hold (MOH). This allows one  
music or sound source to be used for background music and another music or sound source to be used  
for music on hold.  
A typical advantage of this is playing a pre-recorded promotional tape to held parties (since many  
may be customers) while providing a selected background music for use in the office.  
Hardware Requirements  
Background music requires an SCC card (VB-44181). Both Background Music and Music on  
Hold (if using external MOH) require a sound source.

Caller ID  
Description  
A properly equipped DBS 576 supports Caller ID, a service offered by the network telephone  
service provider. The CO sends calling number information to the DBS 576 after the first  
ring. Users who have display telephones can see Caller ID information as incoming calls ring  
at their extension and can have access to previous calls via the Caller ID Call Log feature.  
The Caller ID number is recorded in SMDR.

FF3-0: Call Duration Display  
Considerations  
ISDN (PRI - T Point) can get calling party information.  
Caller ID service must be ordered from the local telephone operating company or the  
interexchange carrier.  
Caller ID data is usually sent between the first and the second rings of the incoming trunk call.  
The trunk may be programmed to immediately ring at the station or wait until after the Caller ID  
digits are received before ringing at the station. If the trunk is programmed to ring immediately,  
the Caller ID digits will not display until after they are received and processed.  
Caller ID numbers may be denied from being sent for some callers (private). Some long distance  
carriers may not provide Caller ID data (out of area).  
Caller ID only support the single format (number only). Multiple format (number and name) is  
not supported.  
Centrex/PBX Compatibility  
Description  
Centrex/PBX Compatibility allows the System to be connected behind centrex or PBX lines.  
The System supports up to 6 access codes for dialing centrex or a PBX. These access codes allow the  
System, System Message Detail Recording (SMDR) output to exclude the number dialed to reach a  
centrex or PBX line.

CO Ringing Types  
Description  
Several types of CO ringing are available for the System including the following:  
Direct Inward Dialing (DID) Ringing  
Direct In Line (DIL) Ringing  
Direct Inward System Access (DISA) Ringing  
Multiple Ringing  
These ringing types may be used in any combination in the System.  
Direct Inward Dial Ringing  
DID Ringing allows calls on a common CO to be directed to ring to a specific extension or group of  
extensions, etc. based upon the final digits dialed. These final digits are received from the DID trunk  
and compared to a DID Table that determines where the calls should ring. Depending on the

assignments in the DID Table, names or trunk numbers are displayed. (Names can be up to 10 digits  
long.)  
DID Ringing can be very useful by sending calls directly to a specific extension, hunt group, etc.  
based upon the number dialed. Since a relatively small number of trunks handle the DID calls, this  
can be more cost efficient than DIL trunks or attendant group answering and transfer. (DID may send  
a call to a group using the Virtual Extension feature.) DID Busy/Delayed Ringing is also available

Considerations  
Caller ID takes priority over the DID name assignment.  
Only one of the two DID tables may have name assignments.  
Direct In Line Ringing  
DIL Ringing allows calls on a specific CO line to be directed to ring a specific extension, System  
Speed Dial (SSD) number (for redirecting calls out), and hunting group.  
This can be very useful when a trunk is dedicated to a specific person or purpose. However, this can  
be a more expensive use of the line since it has a more limited use.

Day/Night System Mode  
Description  
Day/Night System Mode enables you to switch the System between two Day modes and a Night  
mode. These modes determine incoming call handling, Toll Restriction Service (TRS) call handling,  
and attendant group support.  
While in a Night mode (generally used at night or any time when your office is closed), incoming  
calls can ring at selected extensions (e.g., a night watchman’s extension or an extension connected to  
an answering machine). Outbound calls can be restricted to certain phones. Calls can be directed to a  
nighttime attendant group instead of the normal daytime attendant group.  
The System provides one Night mode for night call handling. However, there are three night feature  
access codes (Night, Night 1, and Night 2). These three codes may be used to provide different two-  
way Voice Processing Unit messages (i.e., Night may select one message, Night 1 may select a  
different message, and Night 2 may select a third message.)  
Typically, the Day mode is used for normal call processing of outside calls, TRS calls, and attendant  
calls. The second day mode (Day 2) may be used for alternative call handling such as during a lunch  
break, etc.  
There are two ways to change day/night service modes:  
Manually  
Automatically  
The following table lists the impact on TRS, Ringing, Attendant, and Built-in Voice Processing Unit

Day and Night modes can be assigned to FF keys on a phone. You can switch between Day 1,  
Day 2, Night, Night 1, and Night 2 modes simply by pressing the appropriate key. The FF key  
lights red when the System is in the assigned mode. Alternatively a Day/Night toggle mode key  
can be assigned. Pressing the key toggles between modes. When in Day mode, the FF key LED  
is not lit. When in Night mode, the LED lights red.  
Automatic Day/Night Mode  
You can set the System to automatically enter a particular Day/Night mode determined by the time of  
day. Each day of the month can be assigned 1 of 3 automatic system mode patterns. Each of the  
patterns can be set to change modes up to 5 times per day.  
Up to 20 special days can be programmed with up to 5 automatic mode changes for the day.  
An Exception Day period is available for overriding the automatic mode for extended periods of time.  
For instance, if an office is shut down for the week of July Fourth, the System can be programmed to  
not operate in the automatic mode for those days. The System will stay in the same mode for the  
period. The mode may be manually changed at any time.  
For instance, the System can be set to automatically enter Day 1 mode at 8:00 a.m. on weekdays and  
enter Night mode at 5:00 p.m. on weekdays. All incoming calls, TRS and attendant group handling  
would change accordingly. On Saturday and Sunday, the System would stay in Night mode.  
The Automatic Day/Night modes may be set in User Maintenance. See “Set Mode Schedule” on page

Hunting Groups  
Description  
Hunting allows calls to be automatically transferred among a preselected group of phones. If a phone  
is busy or there is no answer in a set amount of time, the call will hunt to the next phone in the hunt  
group.  
A phone assigned to a hunt group is called a member. Up to 20 members can be assigned to a hunt  
group. Up to 12 hunt groups are available per cabinet.  
Several methods of station hunting are available. Some methods require use of a pilot number (a  
fictitious extension number) while others start by a direct call to a hunt group member.  
The System supports the following hunting groups:  
Pilot Terminal Hunt Group  
Pilot Distributed Hunt Group  
Switch Back Hunt Group  
Circular Hunt Group  
Next Extension/Hunt Group  
Pilot Terminal Hunt Group  
Pilot Terminal Hunt Group directs calls to a pilot number. The System begins with the first member  
and hunts through the group for the first available member to receive the call. If no member is  
available (extension is busy or there is no answer for a specified amount of time), the call is queued  
for the first member to become available. You can also set the Queuing Timer to specify how long the  
System will search the initial hunt group before beginning to search the next hunt group or extension.  
The main advantage of this type of hunting is that the same hunting order is taken for all calls. This is  
useful in presenting calls to selected members first.

Chapter 3. System Features  
Pilot Distributed Hunt Group  
Pilot Distributed Hunt Group directs calls to a pilot number. The System reviews who received the  
last call and begins hunting with the next member. If the last member in the group is reached and no  
member is available, the hunt continues with the first member and proceeds forward. After a complete  
search and no available member is found (extension is busy or there is no answer for a specified  
amount of time), the call is queued for the first member to become available. You can also set the  
Queuing Timer and specify how the long the System will search the initial hunt group before  
beginning to search the next hunt group or extension.  
The main advantage of this type of hunting is that calls are evenly distributed throughout the group.  
Switch Back Hunt Group  
Switch Back Hunt Group initiates hunting in a specified group for calls made to a member extension  
in the group. If the called member of the hunt group is busy, the System begins hunting forward to the  
end of the group. If no member is available, the system hunts backward from the called member. If no  
member is available (extension is busy or there is no answer for a specified amount of time), the call  
is queued for the first member to become available. You can also set the Queuing Timer and specify  
how the long the System will search the initial hunt group before beginning to search the next hunt  
group or extension.  
The main advantage of this type of hunting is that calls can be directed to start with a selected portion  
of the hunting group based on the directed number. However, all members are eventually searched.  
Circular Hunt Group  
Circular Hunt Group initiates hunting in a specified group for calls made to a member extension in the  
group. If the called member of the hunt group is busy, the System begins hunting forward to the end of  
the group and then moves forward from the first member of the group. If no member is available  
(extension is busy or there is no answer for a specified amount of time), the call is queued for the first  
member to become available. You can also set the Queuing Timer and specify how the long the  
System will search the initial hunt group before beginning to search the next hunt group or extension.  
The main advantage of this type of hunting is that calls can be directed to start with a selected portion  
of the hunting group based on the directed number. However, all members are eventually searched.  
Next Extension/Hunt Group  
Next Extension/Hunt Group lets you specify which extension or hunt group to search after the  
Queuing Timer expires. This hunt group can be set as any type of hunt group, an attendant group, or  
an extension (including virtual extensions).

Considerations  
If a member of the hunt group has Do-Not-Disturb (DND) or Call Forwarding - All set, that  
phone is temporarily removed from the hunt group.  
If a member of the hunt group has Call Forwarding - Busy set and the extension is busy, the call  
goes to the next phone in the hunt group.  
If all members are busy for the duration of the busy queuing timer, the call can be forwarded to  
another hunt group or another extension.  
A hunt group can contain both real extensions and virtual extensions. If virtual, several phones  
can be made to ring at the same time.  
The pilot number for a hunt group is flexible (i.e., any extension number can be designated as the  
pilot [not a real extension]).  
Hunt groups support the following call types:  
• Direct Inward Dialing (DID) / Dialed Number Identification Service (DNIS) / Direct  
Dial Inward (DDI)  
• Direct Inward System Access (DISA)  
• Extension calls  
• Private network attendant calls  
• Call forward incoming  
• Call forwarded to Attendant Hunt Group  
Internal Hold Tone  
Description  
If a Music-on-Hold (MOH) sound source is unavailable, a periodic hold tone generated internally in  
the System can be provided to a caller. For more information, see “Music-on-Hold” on page 50.

MCO Tenant Group  
Description  
When the System is configured for tenant operation, MCO Tenant Group determines which trunks  
groups are used for incoming and outgoing calls.

Section 700 - Operation  
Chapter 3. System Features  
Each MCO trunk group is assigned to an MCO tenant group for incoming calls and for outgoing calls.  
By default, Trunk Group 1 is assigned to MCO Tenant Group 1, Trunk Group 2 is assigned to MCO  
Tenant Group 2, etc. for both incoming and outgoing calls.  
For outgoing calls, each tenant group has 5 auto-trunk selections available. By default the first auto-  
trunk selection is seized by entering 9, the second by entering 81, etc.  
The number of MCO tenant groups available depends on the number of ports in the system as follows:  
96-port system: ....1 to 12 MCO tenant groups  
192-port system: ...1 to 24 MCO tenant groups  
288-port system: ...1 to 36 MCO tenant groups  
384-port system: ...1 to 48 MCO tenant groups  
480-port system: ...1 to 60 MCO tenant groups  
576-port system: ...1 to 72 MCO tenant groups

Considerations  
When you first assign a trunk to a Trunk Tenant Group from the initial setting of (0), the system  
automatically assigns the trunks as a member of the same number MCO Trunk Group (FF5-2 and  
FF5-3). For instance, if Trunk 10 is assigned as a member of Trunk Tenant Group 1, then Trunk  
10 is automatically assigned as a member of MCO Outbound Trunk Group 1 and MCO Inbound  
Trunk Group 1. These assignments can be manually changed if desired.  
Memory Backup  
Description  
Data stored in the CPC card can be copied to another CPC card in the OP2 card slot for the first  
cabinet. This is particularly useful when performed after completion of initial system setup (as a  
recovery measure) or before major changes are made to system configuration. This backup CPC can  
then be used to immediately restore system operation.  
This feature is a maintenance feature to be performed by the System certified dealer only.  
Hardware Requirements  
A second CPC card that matches the type installed must be used to copy the memory.

Station Message Detail Recording  
Description  
Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR) provides detailed call records of outgoing calls. SMDR  
records can be output to a printer or an external call accounting system.  
Various types of information are reported on the SMDR record and each type of information occupies  
a set position in the SMDR format (See Figure 1 on page 64.) One type of information is the  
“condition code” which occupies the first position in the output format. This code specifies what type  
of call was made or received (e.g., DISA Incoming call [S] or Outgoing Network call [W]). However,  
condition codes are prioritized, and the type of call determines what code is displayed.  
The following tables shows the priority of condition codes for outgoing calls and incoming calls.

You can specify which type of SMDR data format is sent (i.e., either Format 1 or 2).  
Toll Restriction Service  
Description  
Toll Restriction Service (TRS) allows access levels, including the prohibition of long distance calls or  
after-hours calls, to be assigned to specific extensions or CO lines. This minimizes non-business  
related calls and reduces phone bills by only allowing long distance calls over designated lines.  
TRS can be used in conjunction with Automatic Route Selection (ARS).  
TRS classes are set on an extension and trunk basis. Up to 50 TRS classes can be assigned.  
Each TRS class is then assigned to a TRS level. This level is used as the basis for allowing or  
restricting calls.  
There are 10 TRS levels available: 0 denies all calls, 1-8 may be partially restrictive per  
assignments, and 9 allows all calls.  
TRS can restrict the number of digits dialed (1 to 20 digits limit or no limit).  
TRS can restrict the use of System Speed Dials (SSDs) for out dialing on a TRS class basis;  
either no system speed dials or limit the range of SSDs.

Virtual Port  
Description  
Virtual ports are not physical ports in the System. They are phantom or simulated ports used in the  
System to support:  
Virtual extension ringing  
Virtual floating hold  
Up to 96 virtual ports may be assigned per cabinet.  
Virtual Port used for Virtual Extension  
You can assign an actual extension number to a virtual port. You can then assign the extension number  
as any actual extension (incoming call settings and types, Station Class of Service (COS), tenant  
group, pickup group, etc.). You can also assign the virtual port to an FF key on one or more telephones  
and set to ring. Any call directed to the virtual port extension number will ring the assigned  
telephone(s).  
Virtual extensions provide a mechanism for ringing multiple phones simultaneously. For instance, a  
Direct Inward Dialing (DID) entry can only be set to ring to one extension number. However, if the  
DID is set to ring a virtual extension and the virtual extension is assigned to ring keys on multiple  
extensions, the DID will ring the multiple extensions.

Virtual Port used for Floating Hold  
You can assign a virtual port that is not assigned an extension number to be used for floating  
hold. The virtual port is assigned to an FF key. Calls can then be placed on hold on the virtual  
port FF key. Any extension that is assigned the same virtual port FF key can then pick up the  
held call.  
This can be used like a system park feature.

Voice Mail Integration (Third Party)  
Description  
The System supports third party Voice Mail systems with features such as:  
Answer Supervision for Voice Mail  
Call Forward ID Code for Voice Mail  
DID/DNIS/DDI ID Code for Voice Mail  
High Priority Message Waiting  
Message Key ID Code  
Answer Supervision for Voice Mail  
Description  
This feature allows the DBS 576 to send an answer signal to third-party Voice Mail systems.  
Without this feature a third-party Voice Mail cannot receive a signal indicating that a DBS  
DBS 576 extension has answered. In other words, to determine that the extension has  
answered, the Voice Mail system would have to wait until the extension stops receiving  
ringback tone. As a result, waiting for the ringback to stop often delays connection times for  
calls from Voice Mail to extensions. By sending an answer signal, this feature provides  
quicker response time between the DBS 576 and the Voice Mail system.  
Hardware Requirements  
AEC Port

FF1-0 23: Voice Mail Answer Supervision ID Code

Considerations  
The digits used for the answer signal code are determined by the requirements of the Voice Mail  
system.  
The answer code may be up to 4 characters and consist of the characters 0 - 9, *, #, and pause.  
If the called extension does not answer and is forwarded to Voice Mail, the DBS 576 sends a Call  
Forward ID code back to the Voice Mail system.  
During transmission of the answer signal code, other DTMF digits and functions from the DBS  
576 extension are ignored.  
The Voice Mail port must be assigned as a Voice Mail port connection.  
The DTMF pattern is set as pattern 2.  
Call Forward ID Code for Voice Mail  
Call Forward ID Code for Voice Mail allows you to call forward to a third-party Voice Mail system.  
The ID Code sends the digits that are required by the Voice Mail to identify the System extension.

Considerations  
The VM/TRF key can be assigned to any key phone, DSS/72 or EM/24. The VM/TRF key  
cannot be assigned to a one-touch key.  
The VM/TRF key can be used to transfer intercom as well as CO calls to a voice mailbox.  
The Voice Mail Transfer ID codes are assigned in the Maintenance Programming section. Up to  
ten digits can be stored.  
The system responds to key operations during the transfer in the following ways:  
• Pressing the FLASH key cancels the VM/TRF and returns intercom dial tone to the  
user. When the VM/TRF is cancelled, the incoming call is still connected but is on  
hold.  
• If a valid key (CO key or second DSS key, for example) is pressed, the VM/TRF is  
cancelled and the operation invoked by the key is performed.  
• If an invalid key (REDIAL, for example) is pressed, the VM/TRF is cancelled, and the  
user receives busy tone.  
Once VM/TRF is pressed, the user can dial up to 10 digits before completing the transfer.  
If a user begins to perform the voice mail transfer and the extension cannot hold a call (one call is  
already on non-appearance hold, for example), the system will keep the call in the talk state and  
will not allow the voice mail transfer to be initiated.  
If the VM/TRF key stores a number other than a voice mail extension number, the system does  
not send DSS/BLF information or the extension number that is dialed after pressing VM/TRF.

Description  
(For a description of Automatic Day/Night System Mode, see “Automatic Day/Night Mode” on page

The System allows you to specify up to 3 mode patterns. This menu item determines which pattern to  
follow for a given week day in the month (i.e., first Monday, second Monday, etc.).  
Some bushiness may have special operating hours based on the day of the month. For instance, a  
company may work half-days on the second Saturday of each month.

Account Codes  
CPC-96, CPC-288, and CPC-576 All Versions  
Description  
You can assign account codes to clients to facilitate billing and to track call dates and times, numbers  
called, and outside line numbers used. This information is printed for each account on the System  
Message Detail Recording (SMDR) record.  
In addition verified account codes may be used to change the TRS level to allow calls to numbers  
otherwise restricted.  
Account codes may be either forced or unforced (voluntary) and either verified or unverified.

Section 700 - Operation  
Chapter 5. Key Telephone Features  
This feature works with Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR). During a phone call, a station  
user can silently enter an accounting or client billing code. The entered Code will display on the  
phone’s LCD as it’s dialed, so the user can tell it’s being registered. Then later, the SMDR reports will  
show the Code dialed for each call, and even sort the report by these Codes.  
There are two different types of account codes you can use in the DBS 576:  
Non-Verified Account Codes  
Non-Verified Codes aren’t checked by the system for validity; the user can enter anything from 1-10  
digits long. Individual phones can be programmed to accept forced Account Codes (the user must  
enter a code for every call) or voluntary Account Codes (the user can enter a code, but doesn’t have  
to, for each call).  
Non-Verified Account Codes can be assigned to incoming and/or outgoing calls. For incoming calls,  
the user can enter the Code anytime during the call. For outgoing calls, the user either enters the Code  
before accessing an outside line (for forced Codes), or anytime during the call (for voluntary Codes).  
Verified Account Codes  
Verified Account Codes entered by phone users must match a code that has been preprogrammed into  
an Account Code Table. These codes can also be either forced or voluntary. You can program these  
codes with their own Toll Restriction Service (TRS) Class assignment so that, when entered, they will  
override the extension’s TRS Class. Thus, Verified Account Code users can “float” from phone to  
phone, placing calls that would normally be restricted on that phone.  
Non-Verified Account Codes  
Non-verified Account codes are voluntary codes. (i.e., You do not have to enter an account code  
before making a call.)  
You can assign Non-verified Account codes to both incoming and outgoing calls. To assign an  
account code to an outgoing call, you enter the account code before making the call or during the call.  
To assign an account code to an incoming call, you enter the account code during the call.  
Operation  
To enter an account code before making a call:

Forwarding - Busy are set. Canceling one mode only affects that mode; however, the other  
modes will remain set until canceled individually.  
An auto camp-on to a busy extension will forward to the Call Forward No Answer destination. A

Floating Hold  
Floating Hold is a type of System Hold that allows you to retrieve a held call from any extension that  
has an FF key assigned to the same Floating Hold orbit where the call is held. You can also retrieve a  
call by dialing the Floating Hold orbit number for the held call.  
Floating Hold is useful when the intended recipient of a call must be located via a page. The call can  
be placed in a Floating Hold “orbit” and that orbit number announced during the page. The paged  
party can then pick up the call by dialing the orbit number or by pressing an FF key assigned to that  
orbit number.  
Note: To place a call on Floating Hold, you should have at least one FF key assigned to a Floating  
Hold orbit number (001-576).

You can use the Call Park function to transfer a call, even if you cannot locate the intended recipient  
of the call.  
CO, Extension, and Network calls may be parked.  
There are two ways for an extension to park a call on the DBS 576. One way is to park the call at the  
receiving extension and to retrieve the parked call at another extension by dialing the park answer  
code plus the parking extension number. The other way is to park the call at another extension and dial  
the park transfer answer code at the other extension to retrieve the call.

Call Park fucntions can be assigned to FF keys (see “Flexible Function Keys” on page 152).  
No more than one Call Park Answer key may be assigned to a single telephone.  
A Call Park Answer key may not be assigned to the EM/24 or DSS/72 console.  
If a call is parked by Call Park key, the LED flashes.  
LCD softkeys are also available for Call Park.  
Once a call is parked, it cannot be accessed by the CO line key or direct CO access (similar to  
exclusive hold).  
If two calls are on hold and the last call is parked, the other call is then considered the last held  
call. If a transfer is performed, the remaining held call would be the call transferred, not the  
parked call.

If On-Hook Transfer is not enabled for the transferring party’s Extension Class of Service (COS),  
he/she must press the PROG or RELEASE key before hanging up to complete the transfer.  
If the call is not answered by the third party before the Transfer Recall Timer expires, the call

If a Transfer Recall is not answered before the Recall Duration Timer expires, the call will revert

If the called party does not exist, the call recalls to the transferring extension.  
You cannot transfer a call to an extension that has Do-Not-Disturb (DND) activated.  
You can transfer a call to an extension that has Call Forwarding activated. The transferred call  
will follow the call forwarding path of the extension it is transferred to. For example, if extension  
221 is forwarded to extension 225, calls that are transferred to extension 221 will be forwarded to  
extension 225.  
Calls can be transferred from paging using supervised transfer.  
If a call is unsupervised transferred to a busy extension, the call will camp on to the busy  
extension.  
To transfer to a outside party, it is best to use supervised transfer. If the trunk-to-trunk on-hook  
transfer restriction is enabled, a blind transfer will result in the loss of the second call but the

Camp-on (Call Waiting)  
CPC-96, CPC-288, and CPC-576 All Versions  
Description  
If you dial a busy extension, you can camp onto that extension and send a Call Waiting signal to the  
called party. The called party then needs only to replace the handset and pick it up again to be  
automatically connected to the new call. The called party can also press the HOLD key to place the  
first call on hold and then answer the waiting call.  
The System provides two types of call waiting:  
Automatic Call Waiting: You do not need to enter a code to send the Call Waiting signal to  
the busy extension. You need only to remain on the line.  
Manual Call Waiting: You must enter a code to send a Call Waiting signal to the busy  
extension.

Flexible Function Keys  
CPC-96, CPC-288, and CPC-576 All Versions  
Description  
You can assign frequently used functions to programmable keys on key phones, DSS/72 consoles, and  
EM/24 consoles. All keys not already assigned as line or speed dialing keys are available for  
programming.  
You can store either Fixed Feature codes or Flexible Feature codes in an FF key. (The LED of the  
Flexible Function [FF] key will not light when digits are stored in the key.) Fixed Feature codes are  
hard-coded and cannot be changed. Most features; however, can also be assigned flexible codes  
according to the System Dial Plan. This allows the flexible codes to be changed in the dial plan  
without having to re-program extensions.  
When a flexible code is programmed into an FF key or soft key, the System translates the flexible  
code into the fixed code. You can use either the Fixed Feature code or your System’s Flexible Feature  
code when programming FF keys. Table 13 on page 154 reflects both Fixed Feature codes and the  
System defaults for Flexible Feature codes.

Description  
The System provides two methods of intercom calling:  
Voice Calling: Extension calls are connected immediately, without a ringing tone.  
Tone Calling: A ringing tone is sent to the called extension.  
Extension Class of Service (COS) programming determines whether the default for the originating  
extension is voice or tone calling. Regardless of the default, you can toggle between voice or tone  
calling by entering the Tone-Voice Call feature code. For example, if the extension default is tone  
calling, you can make a voice call to another extension by entering the Tone-Voice Call feature access  
code.

MCO Line Appearance  
DSS/BLF Appearances  
When a DSS/BLF key is programmed, it automatically provides one-touch dialing and DSS and BLF  
for the assigned extension numbers. If desired, the DSS/BLF key can also provide ring or delayed ring  
monitor. For example, you can set extension A as a DSS/BLF ringing key on extension B. When  
extension A rings, the LED of the DSS/BLF key on extension B flashes and the phone rings.  
Ringing or delayed ringing can be set on extensions which have a BLF key. The LED of the DSS/BLF  
key flashes green during ringing and the display shows the BLF extension number.  
When extension A is in use, the LED of the DSS/BLF key on extension B lights red. If one extension  
has the Call Forwarding or Do-Not-Disturb (DND) feature activated, the DSS/BLF key lights green.

You can automatically link together up to 6 SSD numbers in 1 PSD bin to handle telephone numbers  
longer than 24 characters. You can then dial the entire number by pressing the programmed PSD key  
or by entering the speed dial bin number.  
Alternatively, any combination of PSDs and SSDs can be manually linked together by pressing the

access codes, etc.  
Before linking multiple SSD numbers to a PSD bin, the SSD bins must already have been  
programmed with the appropriate speed dial information.

Chapter 6. DSLT Features  
Section 700 - Operation  
This feature works with Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR). During a phone call, a station  
user can silently enter an accounting or client billing code. The entered Code will display on the  
phone’s LCD as it’s dialed, so the user can tell it’s being registered. Then later, the SMDR reports will  
show the Code dialed for each call, and even sort the report by these Codes.  
There are two different types of account codes you can use in the DBS 576:  
Non-Verified Account Codes  
Non-Verified Codes aren’t checked by the system for validity; the user can enter anything from 1-10  
digits long. Individual phones can be programmed to accept forced Account Codes (the user must  
enter a code for every call) or voluntary Account Codes (the user can enter a code, but doesn’t have  
to, for each call).  
Non-Verified Account Codes can be assigned to incoming and/or outgoing calls. For incoming calls,  
the user can enter the Code anytime during the call. For outgoing calls, the user either enters the Code  
before accessing an outside line (for forced Codes), or anytime during the call (for voluntary Codes).  
Verified Account Codes  
Verified Account Codes entered by phone users must match a 4-digit code that has been  
preprogrammed into an Account Code Table. (It is possible to enter up to 10 digits for a Verified  
Account Code; however, only the first 4 digits will be used to verify the code.) These codes can also  
be either forced or voluntary. You can program these codes with their own Toll Restriction Service  
(TRS) Class assignment so that, when entered, they will override the extension’s TRS Class. Thus,  
Verified Account Code users can “float” from phone to phone, placing calls that would normally be  
restricted on that phone.  
Non-Verified Account Codes  
Non-Verified Account codes are voluntary codes. (i.e., You do not have to enter an account code  
before making a call.)  
You can assign Non-Verified Account codes to both incoming and outgoing calls. To assign an  
account code to an outgoing call, you enter the account code before making the call or during the call.  
To assign an account code to an incoming call, you enter the account code during the call.

To enter an account code before making a call:

FF1-0-03: Extension COS (Onhook Transfer at Talk)  
FF1-0-03: Extension COS (Onhook Transfer at Camp-on)  
Considerations  
On-Hook Transfer is not enabled for the transferring party’s Extension Class of Service (COS),  
he/she cannot complete the transfer.  
If the call is not answered by the third party before the Transfer Recall Timer expires, the call  
will recall to the transferring extension.  
If a Transfer Recall is not answered before the Recall Duration Timer expires, the call will revert  
to the Attendant group.  
If the called party does not exist, the call recalls to the transferring extension.  
You cannot transfer a call to an extension that has Do-Not-Disturb (DND) activated.  
You can transfer a call to an extension that has Call Forwarding activated. The transferred call  
will follow the call forwarding path of the extension it is transferred to. For example, if extension  
221 is forwarded to extension 225, calls that are transferred to extension 221 will be forwarded to  
extension 225.  
Calls can be transferred from paging using supervised transfer.  
If a call is unsupervised transferred to a busy extension, the call will camp on to the busy  
extension.  
To transfer to a outside party, it is best to use supervised transfer. If the trunk-to-trunk on-hook  
transfer restriction is enabled, a blind transfer will result in the loss of the second call but the  
second call will be kept on hold. If not enabled and the second outside party is busy, the  
transferred party will receive busy.  
Camp-On (Call Waiting)  
CPC-96, CPC-288, and CPC-576 Version 1.0  
Description  
If you dial a busy extension, you can camp onto that extension and send a Call Waiting signal to the  
called party. The called party then needs only to replace the handset and pick it up again to be  
automatically connected to the new call. The called party can also press the HOLD key to place the  
first call on hold and then answer the waiting call.  
The System provides two types of call waiting:  
Automatic Call Waiting: You do not need to enter a code to send the Call Waiting signal to  
the busy extension. You need only to remain on the line.  
Manual Call Waiting: You must enter a code to send a Call Waiting signal to the busy  
extension.

Account Codes  
CPC-96, CPC-288, and CPC-576 Version 1.0  
Description  
You can assign account codes to clients to facilitate billing and to track call dates and times, numbers  
called, and outside line numbers used. This information is printed for each account on the System  
Message Detail Recording (SMDR) record.  
In addition verified account codes may be used to change the TRS level to allow calls to numbers  
otherwise restricted.  
Account codes may be either forced or unforced (voluntary) and either verified or unverified.  
This feature works with Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR). Before making an outgoing call,  
a station user can silently enter an accounting or client billing code. Then later, the SMDR reports will  
show the Code dialed for each call, and even sort the report by these Codes.  
There are two different types of account codes you can use in the DBS 576:  
Non-Verified Account Codes  
Non-Verified Codes aren’t checked by the system for validity; the user can enter anything from 1-10  
digits long. Individual phones can be programmed to accept forced Account Codes (the user must  
enter a code for every call) or voluntary Account Codes (the user can enter a code, but doesn’t have  
to, for each call).  
Non-Verified Account Codes can be assigned to outgoing calls. The user either enters the Code before  
accessing an outside line (for forced or voluntary Codes).  
Verified Account Codes  
Verified Account Codes entered by phone users must match a 4-digit code that has been  
preprogrammed into an Account Code Table. (It is possible to enter up to 10 digits for a Verified  
Account Code; however, only the first 4 digits will be used to verify the code.) These codes can also  
be either forced or voluntary. You can program these codes with their own Toll Restriction Service  
(TRS) Class assignment so that, when entered, they will override the extension’s TRS Class. Thus,  
Verified Account Code users can “float” from phone to phone, placing calls that would normally be  
restricted on that phone.  
Non-Verified Account Codes  
Non-Verified Account codes are voluntary codes. (i.e., You do not have to enter an account code  
before making a call.)  
You can assign Non-Verified Account codes to outgoing calls only. To assign an account code to an  
outgoing call, you enter the account code before making the call.

Floating Hold (Retrieve Only)  
Floating Hold allows calls to be placed in a hold orbit (position) for retrieval elsewhere in the system.  
Floating Hold is most commonly used by the attendant group when they are unable to locate the  
desired party. If the desired party does not answer his/her phone, the attendant places the caller on  
Floating Hold and asks over the paging system that the desired party dial *9XXX to retrieve the held  
call.  
Single Line Telephone (SLT) positions are not able to place a call on Floating Hold. However,  
an SLT can retrieve a call on floating.

Intercom Calling  
CPC-96, CPC-288, and CPC-576 Version 1.0  
Description  
The System provides two methods of intercom calling:  
Voice Calling: Extension calls are connected immediately, without a ringing tone.  
Tone Calling: A ringing tone is sent to the called extension.  
Extension Class of Service (COS) programming determines whether the default for the originating  
extension is voice or tone calling. Regardless of the default, you can toggle between voice or tone  
calling by entering the Tone-Voice Call feature code. For example, if the extension default is tone  
calling, you can make a voice call to another extension by entering the Tone-Voice Call feature access  
code.  
Operation  
To make a call using Intercom Calling:

Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Introduction  
This appendix provides an overview of the Toll Restriction Service (TRS) and Automatic  
Route Selection (ARS) features that are available with the DBS 576 PBX.  
• TRS provides the ability to block selected outgoing calls while allowing others.  
• ARS automatically finds the lowest cost way to send out a call. This feature is  
sometimes called Least Cost Routing (LCR).  
With the DBS 576 system, it is possible to utilize TRS without ARS (called TRS) or to utilize  
both TRS and ARS together (called ARS/TRS or simply ARS).  
Once TRS is set up, it is automatic. Whenever a call is originated, the TRS tables are checked  
to see if the call is restricted or not. This restriction is based on the originator and the number  
dialed. Separate TRS classes are assigned for Day mode and Night mode.  
ARS operates when ARS is enabled and the caller dials the first MCO Access Number  
(usually 9). Direct trunk access and the second to fifth MCO Access numbers (usually 81 to  
84) do not utilize ARS.  
ARS use may be required based on the extension originating the call. This is enabled by the  
Forced ARS extension setting.  
The ARS feature is exceptionally flexible, depending on the implementation plan. Call  
routing can consider the day of the year, day of the week, time of day, the originating  
extension or trunk and the number dialed. If the preferred route is busy, up to 4 additional  
routes can be considered. When all trunks in a call route are busy, the call can optionally be  
queued to continue trying all trunks while moving to the additional routes.  
Once the trunk group is selected, prefix digits can be deleted and digits added. In addition,  
digits can be added as a suffix.  
A high cost toll call warning can also be issued before connecting to a high cost trunk, giving  
the caller an opportunity to terminate the call attempt before a higher cost connection is  
established.  
Both TRS and ARS/TRS utilize various tables that are linked together. These tables together  
determine the TRS and ARS/TRS operation. Data must be collected determining the  
customer’s needs, requirements and facilities. Then the data must be analyzed to organize a  
TRS or ARS plan. This plan must then be implemented using the appropriate TRS or ARS/  
TRS tables.

Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Section 700 - Operation  
Detailed Description  
This section provides a description of the TRS and ARS options on the DBS 576 PBX.  
TRS Features  
TRS Class Features  
Each trunk and extension in the DBS 576 PBX is assigned to one of 50 TRS classes. Each  
TRS class is assigned a Day TRS level and a Night TRS level for each Trunk group. This  
assigned origination party TRS level is compared to the restriction TRS Level determined by  
the dialed number. If the Origination Party TRS level is not higher than the restriction party  
TRS level, the call is denied.  
In addition, each TRS class is assigned settings such as Outgoing Dial Digit Restriction,  
Incoming Dialing Restriction, Outgoing SSD Dialing Restriction, and * and # Dialing  
Restriction.  
Outgoing Dialed Digit Maximum  
This TRS Class-based parameter sets the maximum number of digits that can be dialed for  
outgoing calls in a TRS Class. The maximum number of digits can be set from 0-20. When  
set to 0 (default), there is no restriction.  
Dialing Restriction During Inbound Calls  
Determines whether dialing during an incoming call is restricted on trunks in a TRS Class.  
TRS Override on SSD Dialing  
Determines whether SSD dialing will override TRS on extensions for a TRS Class.  
Star (*) and Pound (#) Dialing Restriction  
Determines if the * or # key can be used in dialing for a TRS Class.  
TRS Level for Non-ARS Routing  
For each of the 50 TRS classes, an originator’s TRS level of 0-9 may be assigned for each  
possible trunk group. When a call is originated on a particular trunk group, this value is used  
to determine the originator’s TRS level. From the dialed digits, a restriction TRS level (0-8)  
is determined. If the originator’s TRS level does not exceed the restriction TRS level, the call  
is restricted. The higher the originator’s TRS level, the less the restriction. If the originator’s  
TRS level is 0, no outside calls are allowed. If the originator’s TRS level is 9, all outside calls  
are allowed since this always exceeds the restriction TRS value which has a maximum value  
of 8.  
Dialing Analysis  
When a trunk is accessed, the dialed digits can be analyzed to determine if the call will be toll  
restricted.

Section 700 - Operation  
Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Leading Digits Table  
The leading digits table considers the initial dialed digits in determining the restriction TRS level.  
Up to 10 digits can be considered. The digits may be any number 0, 1-9. In addition a wild card (*) may be used  
to occupy any digit position. For instance *11 would consider the numbers 011, 111, 211, 311, 411, 511, 611,  
711, 811, 911.  
When considering the prefix string, the system will always consider the longest exact match first. For instance,  
the prefix string 404 match would be followed before 40.  
A wild card is always considered last. For instance if 911 were dialed and both 911 and *11 were prefix strings,  
the 911 would be followed.  
If additional digits need to be considered, a prefix ID can be used to cross-reference the Analyze Digits Table.  
Once the system determines an exact match, the system will determine from this table the number of digits that  
are to be dialed and the restriction TRS level. (There are two other entries in the Leading Digits Table - Route  
Type and Route Number. These are not used for TRS-only operation.)  
Note that TRS operation is a match then restrict feature. If there is no match, there is no restriction. Make  
certain that there is a match. As a catch all, use the * wild card.  
Note: With TRS is used in a system behind another PBX, the PBX access code does not have to be processed  
by TRS  
Analyze Digits Table  
If the Leading Digits Table contains a Prefix ID, the system will consider all appearances of this Prefix ID to  
look for an exact match. Up to 8 digits are considered (in addition to the prefix dial digits).  
Once the system determines an exact match, the system determines from this table the number of digits that can  
are expected to be dialed and the restriction TRS level. (There are two other entries in the Analyze Digits Table  
- Route Type and Route Number. There are not used for TRS-only operation.)  
ARS/TRS Features  
When ARS is used in the DBS 576 system, TRS also operates.  
TRS Class Features  
These are the same features as for TRS (see above).  
TRS Class - ARS Routing  
TRS Level  
For each of the 50 TRS classes, a TRS Level of 0-9 may be assigned. (This is not done on a Trunk group basis  
since the ARS system determines the trunk group used.)  
When a call is originated, this TRS value is used to determine the originator’s TRS level. From the dialed  
digits, a restriction TRS level (0-8) is determined. If the originator’s TRS level does not exceed the restriction  
TRS level, the call is restricted. The higher the originator’s TRS level, the less the restriction. If the originator’s  
TRS level is 0, no outside calls are allowed. If the originator’s TRS level is 9, all outside calls are allowed since  
this will always exceed the restriction TRS value (maximum of 8).

Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Section 700 - Operation  
ARS Level  
An ARS level is also assigned to each of the 50 TRS classes. This originator’s ARS value is used to determine  
if the caller can proceed to use a particular priority route based on the associated ARS requirement in the Route  
List (described later). The originator’s ARS value may be 0-9 where the higher number allows more calling  
access.  
Queuing Point  
The Route List provides up to 5 route possibilities for handling a call. Each route is considered in a sequential  
order. When the Queuing Point is set to operate, the system will search all previously considered routes and  
then the current route for an available trunk for the Queuing time period.  
Dialing Analysis  
When ARS is active, the dialed digits can be analyzed to determine if the call is toll restricted and what type of  
routing the call will follow.  
Leading Digits Table  
The leading digits table considers the initial dialed digits in determining the restriction TRS level and ARS  
routing.  
Up to 10 digits can be considered. The digits may be any number 0, 1-9. In addition a wild card (*) may be used  
to occupy any digit position. For instance *11 would consider the numbers 011, 111, 211, 311, 411, 511, 611,  
711, 811, 911.  
When considering the prefix string, the system considers the longest exact match first. For instance, the prefix  
string 404 match would be followed before 40.  
A wild card is always considered last. For instance if 911 were dialed and both 911 and *11 were prefix strings,  
the 911 would be followed.  
If additional digits need to be considered, a prefix ID can be used to cross-reference the Analyze Digits Table.  
Once the system determines an exact match, the system will determine from this table the number of digits that  
are expected to be dialed and the restriction TRS level.  
If the TRS level allows the call to proceed, then the route type and its associated pattern number (entry index  
number) are followed. There are three possible route types; the Route Table, the Route List Table and the Time  
List Table.  
Analyze Digits Table  
If the Leading Digits Table contains a Prefix ID, the system considers all appearances of this Prefix ID to look  
for an exact match. Up to 8 digits are considered (in addition to the prefix dial digits).  
Once the system determines an exact match, the system determines from this table the number of digits  
expected to be dialed and the restriction TRS level.  
If the TRS level allows the call to proceed, then the route type and its associated pattern number (entry index  
number) are followed. There are three possible route types; the Route Table, the Route List Table and the Time  
List Table.

Section 700 - Operation  
Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Time List Table  
Time List Table is used when the time of day, the day of week or the date affects the desired route. The Time  
List Table allows up to 50 patterns to be entered. Each pattern may specify up to five Route List patterns to used  
based on the current time of day.  
Up to four Time List tables may be used. The referenced time list table is determined by the Special Day Table  
or the Day of Week Table. This is useful when rates change for certain days (such as weekend rates versus  
weekday rates).  
Route List Table  
The Route List Table is used when there are multiple route possibilities. Up to 5 possible route table patterns  
may be considered in sequential priority when attempting to find an available trunk. Before a route is tried, the  
system compares the route ARS to the originator’s ARS level. If the route ARS exceeds the originator’s ARS,  
the call processing will stop and the caller will receive busy tone.  
When the call is first presented, the first priority route is tried. If there is no available trunk in the first route and  
queuing point is not enabled the system continues to the next priority route, compares the ARS levels and if  
acceptable checks for an available trunk. If no trunk is available, it will continue to the next priority trunk, and  
so forth until all routes have been attempted.  
If an available trunk is found and warning tone is enable, the system will first issue a warning tone to the caller  
to allow the caller the opportunity to hang up before using a more expensive trunk.  
If the queuing point is enabled, the system will wait for an available trunk (beginning with the first priority  
trunk) until the queuing point timer expires before moving to the next possible route.  
Route Table  
The Route Table provides a simple trunk group selection and selects any digit dialing modification needed.  
This table is directly referenced when there is only one route to use. It is also indirectly reference from the  
Route List Table.  
Digit Modify Table  
Once a route is selected, the actual dialed digits can be changed based on the Digit Modify Table. Digits can be  
deleted from the beginning of the number (such as removing an unneeded area code), digits can be added to the  
beginning of the number (such as adding an area code or equal access number) and digits can be added to the  
end of a number.  
TRS Configuration and Operation  
This section provides the following:  
• An overview of the TRS operation.  
• An example TRS configuration - This is a simple example intended to introduce TRS planning and  
implementation. Example worksheets are included.  
• Worksheets for planning and implementing a TRS plan.

Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Section 700 - Operation  
TRS Programming/Operation Overview  
The purpose of TRS is to restrict outside call origination based on the number dialed and the originator.  
As shown in Figure A-4 TRS Operation (Non-ARS) at the end of this appendix, up to 50 TRS Classes settings  
are assigned. When a call is originated, several general settings for the originator are always considered:  
Digit Restriction - This is the maximum number of digits that can be dialed.  
Incoming Dialing Restriction - If this is enabled, an outside call cannot be originated during an  
incoming call.  
Outgoing SSD Dialing Restriction - This determines if SSD dialing is allowed or not.  
Star (*) and Pound (#) Dialing Restriction - This determines if the * and # digits can be outdialed.  
When a call is originated, the system determines the TRS class for the originator from either the Trunk Class  
Assignments or the Extension Class Assignments. It then determines the originator TRS level for the trunk  
group selected.  
When the call is dialed, the system collects the digits and compares the leading digits to the leading digits table  
entry. The system will look for the longest available exact match. A * may be entered as a wild card for any  
digit position.  
If an exact match is found, the system will look to see if there is a Prefix ID. If so, it will jump to the analyze  
digits table. If not, the system will compare the entered TRS Restriction value to the call originator’s assigned  
TRS level. If the originator’s TRS level is not greater than the Restriction TRS level, the call is denied.  
Otherwise, the call is allowed to proceed.

Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Section 700 - Operation  
If the analyze digits table is referenced by a Prefix ID, the system will consider at all entries with the Prefix ID  
and analyze any additional digits dialed. The system will look for the longest exact match. If there is an exact  
match, the system compares the entered TRS Restriction value to the call originator’s assigned TRS level. If the  
Restriction value is equal to or greater than the originator’s TRS level, the call is denied. Otherwise, the call is  
allowed to proceed.  
Example TRS Configuration  
As an example of setting up TRS, assume that XYZ Department Store is using the DBS 576 PBX.  
Situation  
This example installation has the following considerations:  
• Only one tenant (one MCO tenant group operation)  
• 75 retail floor store phones  
• restricted to local telephone use only except for 1800, 1888 and calls to Birmingham, Alabama

Implementation  
The configuration of this system is described in the following steps:  
Most of the information is straight forward. The Day TRS and Night TRS classes are determined by  
assigning consecutive Class numbers to each unique calling need. When a duplicate need is encountered,  
the same class number is assigned.

4. Calls are screened by first considering the initial digits dialed. In this case, the first Prefix Dialed entry is a  
1. This will look at any number that starts with 1. A * is available as a wild card. This represents any single  
digit 1-9.  
When prefix dial is being considered by the system, the system looks for the longest exact match first. The  
system will consider a wildcard last. For instance, 911 is considered before *11 or even *. Notice also in  
this example there are multiple entries that begin with 9.  
If the leading digits are not enough to determine the handling of the call, then additional digits can be  
considered by entering a Prefix ID that references entries in the Analyze Digits Table. Otherwise, the  
Prefix ID is left blank and the additional items are considered.  
In this example, we cross reference Prefix ID 1 in the Analyze Digits Table for any dialed number that  
begins with 1. The remaining digits are analyzed in the Analyze Digits Table.  
Level Plan,” on page 302, the restriction levels are determined for each type of dialed call.

5. In this case, Prefix ID 1 links calls that have a dialed prefix of 1. Several entries are made to determine the  
restriction TRS level and the Route Type. The call originator must have a Origination TRS Level  
exceeding 1 for the call to be allowed. If any other analyze digits are dialed this would be covered by the  
three * wildcards (***). In this case; the call originator must have a TRS level exceeding 2 for the call to

Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Section 700 - Operation  
ARS Configuration and Operation  
This section provides the following:  
• An overview of ARS.  
• An example ARS configuration.  
• Worksheets for planning and implementing an ARS plan.  
ARS/TRS Programming/Operation Overview  
The purpose of TRS is to restrict outside call origination based on the dialed number and the originator. The  
purpose of ARS is to automatically select the lowest cost route available for a call based on the dialed number.  
The system allows separate TRS operation or TRS operation concurrent with ARS operation.  
TRS-only operation is described in the previous section of this appendix. The TRS portion of ARS/TRS works  
in the same manner.  
As shown in Figure A-5 “ARS/TRS Operation” found at the end of this appendix, up to 50 TRS/ARS Class  
Settings are assigned. When a call is originated, several general settings for the originator are always  
considered:  
Digit Restriction - This is the maximum number of digits that can be dialed.  
Incoming Dialing Restriction - If this is enable, an outside call cannot be originated during an  
incoming call.  
Outgoing SSD Dialing Restriction - This determines if SSD dialing is allowed or not.  
Star (*) and Pound (#) Dialing Restriction. - This determines if the * and # digits can be outdialed.  
When a call is originated, the system determines the TRS/ARS Class for the originator from either the  
Extension Class Assignments or the Trunk Class Assignments. It then determines the originator TRS level and  
originator TRS level from the TRS/ARS Class Assignments. In addition, the Queuing Point continue parameter  
setting is considered.  
When the call is dialed, the system collects the digits and compares the leading digits to the leading digits table  
entry. The system looks for the longest available exact match. A * may be entered as a wild card for any digit  
position.  
If an exact match is found, the system looks to see if there is a prefix ID. If so, it will jump to the analyze digits  
table. If not, the system will compare the entered TRS Restriction value to the call originator’s assigned TRS  
level. If the Restriction value is equal to or greater than the originator’s TRS level, the call is denied. Otherwise,  
the Route Type and associated Pattern # are determined and the system jumps there.

Section 700 - Operation  
Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
If the analyze digits table is referenced by a prefix ID, the system will consider at all entries with the prefix ID  
and analyze any additional digits dialed. The system looks for the longest exact match. If there is an exact  
match, the system compares the entered TRS Restriction value to the call originator’s assigned TRS level. If the  
Restriction value is equal to or greater than the originator’s TRS level, the call is denied. Otherwise, the route  
type and associated pattern # are determined and the system jumps there.  
Three route types are available. These include the Routing Table (a direct trunk group selection), the Route List  
Table (a route priority consideration), and the Time List Table (selects a route list based on date, day of the  
week, and time of day).  
The simplest call routing method is the Route Table. This determines a trunk group to use and, if programmed,  
a digits modification pattern to use. Up to 24 prefix digits may be deleted, up to 10 prefix digits can be added  
and up to 10 suffix digits may be added.  
If multiple trunk groups are to be considered for the call, the Route List Table is used. This table consists of up  
to 5 possible routes and an associated ARS level required. If the ARS level for the first priority route is equal to  
or less than the ARS level associated with the call originator, then the listed route will be tried. If the first listed  
Route Table trunk group has no available trunks busy, then the next priority route is considered. If Queuing  
Point is set to continue, then the first priority trunks are retried first before trying to a next priority route. If the  
Warning Tone is enabled, then before a call is connected to a found trunk, a warning tone is sounded to allow  
the caller to hang up before the more expensive trunks are used.  
If time of day, day of week and day of the year need be considered in routing the call, then the Time List Table  
should be referenced first. The Time List Table allows up to 50 patterns to be entered. Each pattern can specify  
up to 5 route list patterns to used based on the current time of day.  
Up to four time list tables may be used. The referenced time list table is determined by the Special Day Table or  
the Day of Week Table. This is useful when rates change for certain days (such as weekend rates versus  
weekday rates).  
Example ARS Configuration  
As an example of setting up ARS, assume that Atlanta based XYZ Department Store is using the DBS 576  
PBX.  
Situation  
This example installation has the following considerations:  
• 75 retail floor store phones  
• restricted to local telephone use only except for 1800, 1888 and calls to Birmingham, Alabama  
where a sister store and many suppliers are located  
• restrict special calling numbers (976, 1900, outside operator, etc.)  
• 911 always allowed  
• 40 general office phones  
• long distance allowed during day mode  
• restrict special calling numbers (976, 1900, outside operator, etc.)  
• 911 always allowed  
• 10 purchaser/buyer telephones  
• no time restriction

Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Section 700 - Operation  
• restrict special calling numbers (976, 1900, outside operator, etc.)  
• 911 always allowed  
• 25 executive office telephones  
• no time restriction  
• no calling restrictions  
• 2 attendant group phones  
• no restrictions during the day  
• local calls only at night to prevent abuse  
• 7 warehouse phones  
• extension and 911 emergency calling only  
• Trunks 1-24 are in trunk group 1 and are to the local CO for local calls. In addition, long distance  
carriers are accessed using these trunks by dialing the equal access codes. Long distance carrier A  
(equal access code 101XXXX) is the least expensive carrier during the weekday times of 8 to 6. Long  
distance carrier B is the least expensive long distance carrier during nights, weekends, and holidays.  
• Trunks 25 and 26 are in trunk group 2 and are Out-WATS trunks from Long Distance Carrier C. These  
trunks are less expensive than either long distance carrier lines regardless of the WATS band.  
• Trunks 27 and 28 are Foreign Exchange lines to a central office exchange in Birmingham where a sister  
store and several suppliers are located. These trunks are always preferred for any call to the  
Birmingham area code of 205 with exchanges 555, 556, and 557.

Figure A-10. Example Carrier C Simplified WATS Service Bands for Atlanta  
In this very simplified WATS example, the higher the Out-WATS band, the longer distance the call and therefore the higher cost the call.  
However, calls using Out-WATS are always less expensive than other long distance choices (except for the FX line calls to Birming-  
ham) Note that if alternative carriers were less expensive for some areas than the Out-WATS service, then the area codes would have to  
be considered in choosing the route.

Appendix A. ARS and TRS Operation  
Figure A-11. Example Foreign Exchange Lines From Atlanta to Birmingham  
In this case we have two Foreign Exchange (FX) lines to a Birmingham Central Office Exchange. Using these lines are like dialing  
directly from the Birmingham exchange. We pay a flat fee for the FX line. There is no additional charge for calls to Birmingham.  
For this example, there are three office exchange numbers in Birmingham, 555, 556, and 557 that we want to be able to call that are  
local calls. There are no other exchanges that begin with 55X.  
Implementation  
The configuration of this system is described in the following steps:  
Most of the information is straight forward. The Day TRS and Night TRS Classes are determined by  
assigning consecutive Class numbers to each unique calling need. When a duplicate need is encountered,  
the same class number is assigned.

5. Calls are screened by first considering the initial digits dialed. In this case, the first Prefix Dialed entry is a  
1. This will look at any number that starts with 1. A * is available as a wild card. This represents any single  
digit 1-9.  
When prefix dial is being considered by the system, the system looks for the longest exact match first. The  
system considers a wildcard last. For instance, 911 is considered before *11 or even *. Notice also in this  
example there are multiple entries that begin with 9.  
If the leading digits needed are to determine the handling of the call, then additional digits can be  
considered by entering a Prefix ID that references entries in the Analyze Digits Table. Otherwise, the  
Prefix ID is left blank and the additional items are considered.  
In this example, we cross reference Prefix ID 1 in the Analyze Digits table for any dialed number that  
begins with 1 and Prefix ID 2 for any dialed number that begins with 0. The remaining digits are analyzed  
in the Analyze Digits Table.  
Level Plan,” on page 316, the restriction levels are determined for each type of dialed call.  
We determine the Route Type depending on the type of call. If the time and or day impacts the cost, then  
the time list is used. If the time is not a factor, but multiple trunk groups could be used, then the Route List  
is used. If a specific trunk should be used, then we directly reference the Route Table.

7. If call routing varies by day of week or special day, then separate time lists must be prepared. In this  
example, weekday call routing varies from weekends and holidays. Therefore two time list tables are  
completed. When a call is made, the system will check to see if this is a special day listed in a Time List  
Table. If so, it will use that table. If not, then it will check the day of week and use the associated table.  
On weekdays, we know that Carrier B is less expensive from midnight (0000) to 7:59am and from 6pm  
(1800) to midnight). Carrier A is less expensive from 8am (0800) to 1759).  
We then reference a route list pattern for each call entry.

8. Each Route List Pattern consists of a one or more trunk groups in sequence to check for an available trunk.  
Before a route is considered, the required ARS level is compared to the originator’s ARS level. If the  
originator’s ARS level is greater than or equal to the required ARS level, the trunk group listed for the  
route will be searched for an available trunk. If no trunk is found, the system will attempt to use the next  
priority route.  
In this example for Pattern 1, the system will first compare the Priority 1 ARS level for the call. If it is  
determined that the ARS level is acceptable, the system looks at the route # 4 (FX trunk group). If there is  
an available trunk, the system completes the call. If no FX trunk is available during the queuing time, the  
system checks the ARS level for Priority 2. If acceptable, since Queuing Point is enabled the system will  
first attempt to find an available Priority 1 trunk, and then attempt to find a Priority 2 WATS trunk. If a  
Priority 2 trunk is found, the system will first check to see if Warning Tone is set to Yes. In this example,  
there is no warning tone. If Yes, the system would issue a warning tone to the user before connecting the  
trunk to allow the caller to hang up before using the higher cost trunk. This process is repeated if necessary  
for the Priority 3 - Long Distance Carrier B and then Priority 4 - Long Distance Carrier A.

9. In this example, there are only 5 route patterns needed. The first three use the same trunks to the local CO.  
The first pattern does not modify the dialed digits. The second pattern uses the Digit Modify Pattern to add  
the Equal Access Code prefix for Long Distance Carrier A (preferred in the day time). The third pattern  
uses the Digit Modify Pattern to add the Equal Access Code prefix for Long Distance Carrier B (preferred  
at night and on week ends).  
The fourth pattern selects the FX lines to Birmingham and selects a digit modify pattern that removes the  
first 4 digits dialed (1205) so that the call originates at the CO as a local call.  
The fifth pattern selects the Out-WATS trunks. No digit modification is required for these trunks.
