Programming Basics

1. Set the circuit type for each DID line.

  1. Be sure your T1/PRI PCB is installed and connected and that your telco is providing T1 DID service.
  2. 3101-01: Line Type [Lines: Config: Setup: Type (3101): Type]
    Use this option to enter the correct circuit type for each DID line
    Option Description
    03 DID Wink Start.
    04 DID Immediate Start .
    - [Default] No DID circuit types assigned.
  3. 3101-03: DTMF Dialing [Lines: Config: Setup: Type (3101): DTMF Dialing]
    Use this option to indicate whether the line is DTMF (1) or Dial Pulse (0).
    Option Description
    No (0) Dial Pulse.
    Yes (1) [Default] DTMF.
  4. If your telco provides DID service using E&M Wink Start DTMF signaling, choose circuit type 03 (DID Wink Start) and enable 3101-03: DTMF Dialing [Lines: Config: Setup: Type (3101): DTMF Dialing].

2. Set up DID Translation.

  1. 3301-01: Number of DID Digits [Lines: DID: Setup: Configuration (3301): Number of DID Digits]
    Specify the number of incoming DID digits you expect to receive from the telco for each DID call.
    This is the number of received DID digits that the system feeds into the DID Translation Table in the next step.
    Option Description
    1-8 DID digits received. [Default] = 3.
  2. 3301-02: Name Display [DID: Setup: Configuration (3301): DID Name Display]
    When a DID call rings an extension, the setting of this option determines the source of the displayed DID name. The display can show the programmed line name, the name from the DID Translation Table, or just show the incoming DID number.
    Option Description
    0 [Default] Use the line name.
    1 Use DID Translation Table name.
    2 Use incoming DID number.
  3. 3302-01: Incoming DID Digits [Lines: DID: Setup: Translations (3302): Incoming Digits]
    This is the first step in building a DID Translation Table. Specify the digits you expect to receive from the telco.
    The default entry of *** means the system accepts any three digits.
    Option Description
    Digits 1-8 total digits using 0-9.
    * Wild card representing any digit. [Default] = *** for entry 001. All other table entries are blank.
  4. 3302-01: Day Translation Destination [Lines: DID: Setup: Translations (3302): Day Translation]
    For the incoming digits received, use this option to define the day destination for the call.
    The default entry of 3** means the system routes to an extension in the day mode according to the last two digits dialed.
    Option Description
    Digits 1-8 total digits using 0-9.
    * Wild card representing any digit. [Default] = 3** for entry 001. All other table entries are blank.
  5. 3302-01: Night Translation Destination [Lines: DID: Setup: Translations (3302): Night Translation]
    For the incoming digits received, use this option to define the night destination for the call.
    Option Description
    Digits 1-8 total digits using 0-9.
    * Wild card representing any digit. [Default] = No entry.
  6. 3302-01: DID Name [Lines: DID: Setup: Translations (3302): DID Name]
    For the DID entry you are programming, use this option to assign a name (18 characters maximum). This name can optionally display when the DID call rings an extension.
    Option Description
    Alphanumeric DID entry name (18 characters maximum). [Default] = no name programmed.
      See the Name Programming Chart.
  7. 3302-01: Schedule [Lines: DID: Setup: Translations (3302): Schedule]
    For the table entry you are programming, use this option to assign the schedule that should handle routing for the call.
    Option Description
    1-8 Schedule 1-8.
    0 [Default] Line. The DID entry uses the schedule specified for the line on which the call was received.

3. Allow the extension to receive DID calls.

  1. 1401-08: Receive DID Calls [System: Class of Service: Features: Features (1401): Allow DID Calls]
    If you enable this option, the extension can receive DID calls. If disabled, DID calls won't go through.
    Option Description
    No (0) Disabled.
    Yes (1) [Default] Enabled.
  2. 2102-01: Class of Service [Stations: Config: Setup: Access (2102): Class of Service]
    Assign Class of Service to extensions.
    Option Description


    1-15
                                              


    Class of Service level 1-15.
    [Default] for extension 300 = 1.
    [Default] for all other extensions = 2.
  3. See Programming Caller ID to set up the Caller ID ANI/DNIS services.
