■Administration remains under the control of the init login.
Enable/Disable Login
■The system supports execution of the enable and disable login commands
for the dadmin login.
■Permission to execute these commands for the dadmin login is restricted to
the init and dadmin logins, and to the inads login, if it has been
administered to have “Administer Permissions” permissions.
■It is possible for the dadmin login to disable itself by executing the disable
login dadmin command.
■Execution of the command will not terminate the current login session,
however, subsequent attempts to log in to the system using the dadmin
login will be denied.
■Re-enabling the dadmin login must be performed by the init login or the
inads login, if it has been administered to have “Administer Permissions”.
Optical Drive (TN2211)
■The TN2211 Optical Drive is a direct replacement for the TN1656 Tape
Drive, and offers the following:
■The TN2211 provides removable storage for software upgrades, translation
backups, announcement file backups, and core dumps
What’s New in DEFINITY ECS

■The TN2211 Optical Drive resolves several problems related to the tape
drive such as availability, cost, performance, reliability, and storage
capacity.
■The TN2211 is designed to be less expensive and more reliable than the
TN1656.
■Installation and Upgrade procedures for the TN2211 optical drive are
nearly the same as for the TN1656 tape drive.
■The tape commands are replaced by removable-media commands.
— test tape becomes test removable-media, or test rem for the
shorthand version.
■An optical drive is faster than a tape drive, but it is not related to call flow.
— A full backup to an optical disk cartridge takes approximately 20
minutes, compared to about 95 minutes for a tape.

Configuration
■The configuration is a G3r switch (simplex or duplex) with a TN2211 Optical
Drive and a UN332C MSSNET OR a TN1656 Tape Drive and a UN332B
MSSNET.
■All commands using tape are replaced by removable-media.
■Commands such as test tape, busy tape, release tape, etc. are replaced by
removable-media.
— The commands are test removable-media, busy removable-media,
etc. removable-media can be shortened to rem (test rem, busy rem).
■If a user enters tape instead of removable-media, the error/help message
“tape is no longer valid; use removable-media” is displayed on the SAT.
■All instances of tape on output displays are replaced with removable-media
or R-MEDIA as appropriate.
■Both the tape drive and optical drive are supported by R8 software.
■G3r switches running R8 software are shipped with the TN2211 Optical
Drive and the UN332C MSSNET

Upgrades
— New switches are shipped with the TN1656 Tape Drive and
hardware
■The UN332C MSSNET must be used with the TN2211 Optical Drive.
NOTE:
UN332C MSSNET is backward-compatible with the UN332B. UN332C
will work with a tape drive
■A (remote) maintenance user can identify between the two drive types by
.
using the list config command to determine the TN code.
■The tape commands are replaced with removable-media commands (rem
for short).
■A user can verify the correct suffix of the UN332C by reading the circuit
pack label or reading the output from the list configuration control
command.
■Typically, a defective tape drive will be replaced with another tape drive for
existing systems.
■Customers are not required to upgrade the tape drive to an optical drive for
bugfix.
■For “purchased” upgrades to R8, the customer will are required to upgrade
to the TN2211 optical drive and UN332C MSSNET.

■The procedure to both upgrade from pre-R8 to R8 and to change from a
TN1656 to a TN2211 at the same time is not supported.
■Services must upgrade the hardware first (TN1656 to a TN2211 and a
UN332B to a UN332C), then upgrade to the R8 software.
— The hardware must be upgraded prior to the software.
■Replacement of the tape drive with the optical drive does not impact the
call preserving nature of the upgrade.

Maintenance
NOTE:
Refer to Definity ECS Release 8.2 Upgrades and Additions for R8r, 555233-115, Issue 1.
■A TN2211 is maintained in software as if it were a TN1656.
■After inserting an optical disk cartridge, the access lamp of the drive
should be on for a few seconds, then should turn off.
— Access lamp blinking afterwards typically means a cartridge should
be reinsert ed.
Maintenance Object appears as “R-MEDIA”
■The Maintenance Object appears as R-MEDIA for either the TN1656 or the
TN2211.
■This Maintenance Object is used in the output of commands such as
display alarms, display errors, test removable-media, etc., and functions as
follows:
Issue 1
April 2000
13Platform - Enhancements/Renewal
— If an error or alarm log contains an entry for TAPE, the description
changes to R-MEDIA after the software has been upgraded to R8.
■The list config command output describes the TN1656 and the TN2211 as
R-MEDIA DRIVE.
■Both the tape and optical drives are now generically described as R-
MEDIA DRIVE.
— The only way to differentiate between the two drives in R8 is to look
at the TN code via the list config command.
No limit on the number of accesses
■The software is not limited the number of accesses of an optical disk
cartridge.
NOTE:
Important! The TN2211 Optical Drive does NOT require cleaning.
Any attempt to clean the optical drive will damage it.
■The LMM will display TAPE on boot-up on the SAT, even if an optical drive
and optical disk cartridge are present.
■In duplicated systems, either carrier may have an optical drive or a tape
drive, since software supports
both
.
■The drives can be mixed between carriers (one carrier has a TN1656, the
other has a TN2211).

U.S. Analog Trunk & Line Circuit Pack TN797
Description
This circuit pack is the combination 8-port Analog Trunk and Line Circuit Pack,
TN797, for the US, Canada, and like countries. This provides the user with the
capability to administer any of the 8 ports of this analog circuit pack as a:
■Central Office trunk, either loop start or ground start,
■CAMA E911 trunk,
■Direct Inward Dialing trunk, either wink start or immediate start; or
■An analog line, on or off-premises, with or without LED message waiting
indication.
One way of visualizing the capabilities of this circuit pack is to think that when a
port is administered as a CO trunk , its capabilities will be similar to those of a port
of the analog CO trunk TN747B (or the TN429D used for CAMA/E911); if the port
is administered as a DID trunk, its capabilities will be similar to those of the DID
trunk TN753B, and if administered as a line circuit, its capabilities will be similar
to those of the analog line TN746B.
Issue 1
April 2000
14Platform - Enhancements/Renewal
Note that the TN797 circuit pack does not support ICLID on the analog trunk to
the CO, nor Caller ID on the line side to a terminal. Additional capabilities,
including additional international features, are being planned for a future release
of this circuit pack.
One interesting application of this circuit pack is to provide Emergency Transfer
capabilities to a system which has only DS1 connectivity to the central office, or
to one that has only digital terminals. This circuit pack will permit analog
connectivity to the central office from analog terminals using only one port slot.
There are no changes required in Call Processing for this circuit pack.
The TN797 circuit pack supports all analog terminals supported by the similar
analog circuit packs mentioned above. However, neon lamp message waiting
indication is not supported by this circuit pack.
TN2313 DS1 Interface (US (24-Channel) or
International (32-Channel))
The TN2313 DS1 port board interfaces a DS1 trunk to the switch backplane via
port slots that are standard for DEFINITY products. The TN2313 is compatible
with previous DS1 circuit packs, including the TN464F (V19 and below), the
TN2464 (V19 and below), and the TN767E DS1, except that it does not provide
for packet adjunct capabilities. The TN2313 supports a variety of applications,
including networking of DEFINITY switches, international trunk types, video
teleconferencing, and wideband data transmission.

The TN2313 DS1 interface can be configured for domestic (24-channel, 1.544
Mbps) or international (32-channel, 2.048 Mbps) use. The TN2313 can supply two
8-Khz reference signals to the switch backplane for optional use by the tone/clock
board in synchronizing the system clock to the received line clock.
24 Port Analog Line with Caller ID: TN793B
& TN2793B
The TN793/TN793B is a dual coded, analog line 24-port, that performs all the functions of
the TN746B, 16-port analog line circuit pack. Each port supports 1 voice terminal, such as
500 (rotary dial) and 2500 terminals (DTMF dial).
The TN793/TN793B supports on-premises (in-building) wiring with either touch-tone or
rotary dialing and with or without the LED and neon Message Waiting Indicators. The
TN793/TN793B supports off-premises wiring (out-of-building only with certified protection
equipment) with either DTMF or rotary dialing, but LED or neon message waiting indicators
are no t supported off -premises.
The TN793/TN793B, along with a TN755B neon power unit per carrier or per single-carrier
cabinet, supports voice terminals equipped with neon message waiting indicators (onpremises use only). The TN793/TN793B supports 3 ringer loads, only 1 voice terminal can
have an LED or neon message waiting indicator. The TN793/TN793B allows a maximum of
12 simultaneous ports ringing.
15Platform - Enhancements/Renewal
The TN793/TN793B supports A-Law and µ-law companding and administrable timers. The
TN793 supports queue warning level lights associated with the DDC and UCD features,
recorded announcements associated with the Intercept Treatment feature, and PagePac
paging system for the Loudspeaker Paging feature. Additional support is provided for
external alerting devices associated with the TAAS feature, neon message waiting
indicators, and modems The TN793/TN793B also supports secondary lightning protection.

— The extension number entered is invalid (logged as an invalid
attempt).
— The extension number is not accessible from the user’s partition.

ISDN Renewal (Interworking Assumption)
When CCRON calls are extended over ISDN facilities, two scenarios are possible.
1. ISDN end-to-end facilities are established
Or
2. ISDN end-to-end facilities are not available; a portion of the connection is
not ISDN and ISDN facilities interworking is required for some link between
endpoints.
■ISDN end-to-end was assumed for a period of time, after which
interworking was assumed unless a positive indication from the ISDN
network signaled otherwise.

■The Abort Transfer provides the user with the optional capability to abort a
transfer attempt when pressing a non-idle line appearance or going onhook, putting the previously soft-held call on hard hold.
■In a Pre Release 8.1 operation, the user might have received an urgent call
that they needed to pick up and then later transfer the urgent call to yet
another party.
— The user forgets that the first call is still on soft-hold awaiting

Attendant Vectoring
Attendant Call Vectoring is a stand alone feature that is supported on a single
switch environment with or without CAS. Attendant Call Vectoring permits unique
treatment for each of the attendant-seeking calls according to a number of factors,
as defined by the Vector Directory Numbers for each functionality, so as to provide
a highly flexible approach for managing incoming calls to an attendant on a
DEFINITY switch.

attendant group other than 1 is denied. All endpoints in the system are defaulted
to TN 1 which by default belongs to attendant group 1. Any attempt to assign TN
numbers other than 1 is also denied. So, attendant group calls will always
terminate to attendant group 1. For example, station 2000 is assigned TN 1 so
when the attendant access code is dialed from station 2000, the call terminates to
attendant group 1.
When tenant partitioning is administered, attendants can be assigned to multiple
attendant groups and endpoints can be assigned TN numbers for any of the
tenant partitions. The TN is associated with an attendant group via the tenant
form. So, tenant partitions 1 and 2 can be associated with separate attendant
groups or the same attendant group. Attendant group calls still terminate to the
attendant group assigned to a party’s TN. For example, station 2000 is assigned
TN 1 which is associated with attendant group 1. Station 3000 is assigned TN 2
which is associated with attendant group 2. When the attendant access code is
dialed from station 2000, the call terminates to attendant group 1 and when dialed
from station 3000, terminates to attendant group 2. This is a flexible method of
assigning multiple tenant partitions to be controlled by one attendant group or
assigning each tenant partition a separate attendant group.

Call Vectoring
Call vectoring provides a highly flexible approach to managing calls. It consists of
three basic components:
1. A Vector Directory Number (VDN)
2. Vectors
3. Vector commands
The VDN is an extension which can be directly dialed or administered as a
destination (e.g., last point in a coverage path, night service destination, etc.).
Each VDN is assigned a vector in which call handling procedures are
programmed using vector commands. Once the call goes to a vector, the call’s
routing and treatment are determined by the commands in the vector.
Attendant Vectoring
A new customer option for attendant vectoring will be added and will not be
available if RLT CAS is turned on. So, this feature will be available in nondistributed attendant environments and distributed attendant environments for IAS
and QSIG CAS. When the new option is on, attendant vectoring will be available
for customers to program how they want their attendant group calls processed.
This feature will be based upon and use existing call vectoring and attendant
administration.
Just as TN assignment currently determines which attendant group calls are
terminated to, the TN assignment will also determine which VDN the calls are
redirected to (i.e., a VDN field will be added for each tenant partition). If a VDN is
administered, attendant group calls will be redirected to the VDN rather than the
attendant group. If a VDN is not assigned calls will terminated to the associated

attendant group as they currently do. How Definity determines which party’s TN to
use in call scenarios will remain unchanged by attendant vectoring. The VDN for
the selected TN will apply. For example, the selected TN for calls covered to an
attendant group, is the called user’s
partitioning is not administered, the system can have only one partition and
attendant group. All attendant group calls are directed to attendant group 1. The
form to administer TN associations is not accessible so system-wide console
assignments apply. To follow the existing principals of this administration, the
attendant vectoring VDN assignment will appear on the Console Parameters form
when partitioning is turned off. When it is turned on, the field will be removed from
the console form and the contents will be automatically copied to TN 1.
To associate VDNs and vectors for attendant vectoring, a new field will be added
to both the VDN and the call vectoring form s to indi ca te attendant vectoring.
When attendant vectoring is indicated for VDNs and vectors, all call center
associated fields will be removed (Skills, BSR, etc.). There will be no restrictions
applied to attendant and non-attendant vectoring. For example, an attendant VDN
can point to a non-attendant vector and vice versa. The same is true for vector
commands. For example, an attendant VDN which points to an attendant vector
can have a vector step which routes to another VDN which is a non-attendant
VDN. In this case, the call will be removed from queue and treated as though it
had just entering vector processing rather than a continuation from one VDN to
another. The reverse will also be true if non-attendant VDNs get subsequently
routed to attendant VDNs. The following commands will be provided for attendant
vectoring:

If attendant vectoring results in putting a call in the attendant queue, it will be
placed in queue with the priority as administered on the console parameter form.
There will be no changes made to the attendant priority queue for attendant
vectoring. Note that even when partitioning is turned on and multiple attendant
groups exist, all queues have the same priority assignments. Priority queue
administration also applies for calls to an individual attendant (via the assigned
extension).
If attendant vectoring results in putting a call in the hunt group queue, it will be
placed in queue with the indicated priority. To use this command, the hunt group
must be vector controlled.
Until some mechanism is provided for customers to apply vector commands or
specialized administration to specific types of attendant group calls, the following
will not be redirected to the attendant VDN:
Issue 1
April 2000
49General Telephony Enhancements - Global
■Emergency Access - these calls will still be sent directly to the attendant
group. However, an attendant vectoring VDN can be assigned as the
emergency access redirection extension.
■Attendant return calls - these calls will still be sent to the original attendant
if available or placed into the attendant group queue if no attendants are
available.
■Serial calls - as with return calls, serial calls will still be returned to the
original attendant if available and placed in queue if no attendants are
available.
■VIP Wakeup calls - these reminder calls will still be sent directly to the
attendant group.
■Call Park time-out - these calls result in a conference (caller, principal, and
attendant) and call vectoring does not allow conferenced calls to be
vectored.
■Call Transfer time-out - these calls are controlled by the attendant return
call timer and are processed as though they had been attendant extended
calls (i.e., actual attendant return calls). It is unclear when or why this
functionality was introduced, but the design will not be changed in order to
allow the calls to be vectored.
One of the main reasons for providing attendant vectoring is to allow attendant
group calls to be routed anywhere when the system is in night service. For R8,
there will be no additional night service functionality provided for attendant
vectoring. The desired night service routing can be provided using the existing
night station service in conjunction with attendant vectoring. All existing night
service rules will remain in place (e.g., night console service supersedes night
station service which supersedes TAAS). Attendant group calls will not be

redirected to attendant vectoring when the system is in night service unless a
night console is available. Otherwise, they will continue to be redirected to the
applicable night service processing. In order to achieve attendant vectoring for
calls when the system is in night service without a night console, the night station
service extensions must be attendant vectoring VDN extensions.
Attendant VDN
The fact that VDN extensions can be dialed directly or calls can be transferred to
VDN extensions will remain unchanged for attendant VDNs.
Currently, VDN extensions can be assigned to:
■Hunt Group night destination - An attendant vectoring VDN can be
assigned as a hunt group’s night destination. Calls to that hunt group when
it is in night service will be redir ecte d to the VDN and atte ndan t vectoring

■LDN and trunk night destination - One or all trunk groups can be placed
into night service and an attendant vectoring VDN can be assigned as the
group’s night service destination. If a night destination is assigned for LDN
calls, it will over-ride (for LDN calls) the trunk group’s night destination.
Either of these destinations can be an attendant vectoring VDN. However, if
tenant partitioning is administered and the trunk group night service
destination is the attendant group, the call will be redirected to the VDN
associated with the trunk group’s TN. If, instead, the night service
destination is explicitly assigned to a particular attendant vectoring VDN, it
may or may not be the VDN that would have resulted had the night
destination been the attendant group.
■Tenant night destination - For tenant partitioning, each partition can be
assigned a night destination. When tenant partitioning is turned off, local
attendant group calls are sent to the LDN night destination. When
partitioning is turned on, local attendant seeking calls are sent to the
partition’s night destination.
■Trunk group incoming destination - The incoming destination can be an
attendant vectoring VDN except for RLT trunk groups. As in trunk group
night service, an assigned incoming destination to an attendant vector
could result in the call being sent to a different VDN than if the destination
had been assigned to the attendant group.
■Last coverage point in a coverage path - Attendant VDNs can be assigned
as a coverage point.
■Abbreviated dialing lists - Attendant VDNs can be assigned to abbreviated
dialing lists.

■Emergency access redirection - An attendant VDN can be assigned to
emergency access redirection. When the attendant’s emergency queue
over-flows or when the attendant group is in night service, all emergency
calls will be redirected to this VDN. Careful thought should be given to
routing these calls off-switch.
■QSIG CAS number for attendant group calls - An attendant VDN can be
assigned to this number which determines where attendant group calls at a
QSIG Branch are processed. This will allow local vectoring at a Branch
prior to routing the calls to the Main or elsewhere.
■Auxiliary data for the following button assignments - In keeping with
existing procedures, attendant VDNs will not be denied as auxiliary button
data for:
■Facility busy indication - visual indication of busy or idle status for
the associated extension
■Manual message waiting indication - light a message waiting lamp

Local Attendant Group Access Code
When a station dials the attendant access code, the call is redirected to vector 1. If
it is lunch time, the call is sent to a hunt group and vector processing terminates. If
it is not lunch time, the call is sent to attendant group 1. If an attendant is available,
the call is terminated to the attendant and vector processing terminates.
Otherwise, the call will be queued to the attendant group and the caller hears
music from the music source assigned to TN 1 until an attendant answers the call.
If the call cannot be queued, it is routed to a remote location with coverage and
vector processing terminates. If the call is unanswered after 999 seconds in the
attendant queue, the caller hears busy and vector processing terminates.
Issue 1
April 2000
52General Telephony Enhancements - Global
NOTE:
The
route-to
command leaves vector processing as soon as the call is
successfully routed. So, in the example above, if it is lunch time the call will
route to the hunt group and all hunt group processing will then apply. If the
group is assigned a queue and the call can be queued, it will be. If not, and
coverage criteria is met, the call will follow the hunt group’s coverage path. If
the hunt group is in night service, the call will go to the hunt group’s night
service destination. If the route-to command had indicated coverage “n”, the
hunt groups coverage path would not have been followed and vector step 7
would apply.
Incoming Trunk Calls to Attendant Group
When a call is received on a trunk which has the attendant group assigned as the
incoming destination or the call is addressed to the attendant group, the call is
redirected to vector 2. The call is then sent to attendant group 1. If an attendant is
available, the call is terminated to the attendant and vector processing terminates.
Otherwise, the call will be queued to the attendant group and the caller will hear
the announcement followed by music from the music source assigned to TN 2. If
the call is unanswered after 999 seconds in the attendant queue, the caller is
dropped after hearing an announcement and vector processing terminates. If
queueing to the attendant fails, the call is queued to hunt group 1. If a member is
available to take the call, it will be terminated to the member and vector
processing terminates. If a member is not available and the call can be queued, it
will be and the caller will hear ringback until a member answers. If the call is

unanswered after 999 seconds in the hunt group queue, the caller hears busy and
vector processing terminates. If the call cannot be queued, the call will be routed
to the remote location and vector processing will terminate.
NOTE:
The main difference from scenario 1 is queueing the call to the hunt group
rather than routing the call there. In this scenario, the call will not follow the
hunt group’s coverage path or night service destination.
Incoming LDN Calls
When a call is received for an LDN, the call is redirected to vector 3. If it is lunch
time, the call is sent to attendant 6000. If the attendant is available, the call is
answered and vector processing terminates. If the attendant is not available the
call is placed into queue and the caller hears ringback until the attendant answers
the call. If the call is unanswered after 999 seconds in the attendant’s queue, the
call is sent to the remote location and vector processing terminates. If the call
cannot be placed in attendant 6000’s queue, the call is routed to a remote location
and vector processing terminates. If it is not lunch time, the call is sent to
attendant group 2. If an attendant is available, the call is terminated to the
attendant and vector processing terminates. Otherwise, the call will be queued to
the attendant group and the caller will hear an announcement followed by music
(from the music source assigned to TN 3) every 15 seconds. If the call cannot be
queued, it is sent to attendant 6000.

QSIG CAS
This example shows how you can use Attendant Vectoring with CAS.
CAS BRANCH
Suppose the customer would like to always play an announcement at a QSIG
CAS branch before routing the call to the QSIG CAS main. An attendant VDN
(assume 1000) would need to be administered in the QSIG CAS Number field at
the branch instead of the number to the QSIG CAS main’s attendant access code
(assume 303-538-0 with AAR access code 9). The following vector would play an
announcement and then route the call to the QSIG CAS main.

NewHospitality-Related Features
Auto Selection Direct Inward Dial (DID)
Numbers
■Provides the capability to have the system automatically choose a number
among a list of available DID numbers to be assigned to a guest’s room
upon check-in.
■Useful for any hotel wishing to have direct dialing to rooms without
attendant intervention. It is unlikely to get a central office to assign DID
numbers directly associated with a hotel’s room numbering plan.
■Useful for hotels that wish to give guests a phone number that is not related
to the room number.
■Invoked when a check-in is done from the switch (via a button on the
console) or remotely via a PMS system.
■The switch assigns a DID number to the checked-in room from a list that is
administered as DID stations at the switch.
Issue 1
April 2000
62NewHospitality-Related Features
Process
■All calls made to the DID number are directed to the room’s extension as if
the room was called directly.
■The Auto Digit Rotation for Direct Inward Dial feature uses x-ports to create
the XDIDs; thus, the effective station capacity of the system is reduced by
the number of DIDs administered.
NOTE:
xdid assignments also count against the port count for the “port sensitive
pricing.”
■The Auto Digit Rotation for Direct Inward Dial feature increases hotel
guests’ security as they can publish their “phone number” without giving
away their room number.
Example
When guests check in, they receive the 7- or 10-digit number associated with their
DID number assignment.
■Hotel personnel know the area code and office code to precede the DID
number to create the 7- or 10-digit public network number.
■All outside calls to the guest use the 7- or 10-digit number associated with
that DID number.
■The guests phone will ring and cover as if the room was dialed directly.

■From inside the hotel, either the room/extension number or the 2- to 5-digit
DID number may be used.
NOTE:
XDIDs that are unused will follow the coverage path.
All xdids cover to voice mail so that they can get a recording that says
nobody is checked in.
Administration
Coverage
■XDID ports perform the Hunt-to function before coverage.
■After hunting, coverage criteria for these calls is based upon the DID, but
the coverage points are based upon the hunted-to station (room).
■The Hunt-to feature is modified so that calls placed properly to the DID
number route properly to the mailbox associated with the room’s extension
(hunted-to number).

— The field accepts only valid values of y or n, which indicates whether
the feature is active.
— The field defaults to n (no).
■Whether the feature is administered from the switch-activated check-in or
from a PMS check-in depends on which check-in mode is active on the

■New button type xdid-view is similar to the check-in button.
■The system allows this button’s use whether the switch or a PMS
administers check-ins, to allow DID assignments to be looked up and
changed at any time.
■The button is allowed only on display sets.

■PMS can request a DID assignment from the switch in the check-in

■When the Automatic DID assignment feature is active and check-ins are
done from the PMS, the system assigns all check-ins received from the
PMS a DID number from the list of XDID numbers.
— The number is chosen from the list in a FIFO manner.
— The DID chosen is always the oldest number.
— This number is sent back to the PMS in a new check-in message.
■The new message is always sent if the DID feature is active, regardless of
whether the PMS requested a DID assignment.
■The XDID port has the Hunt-to field filled in with the room extension.
■Checkouts clear the Hunt-to field and return xdid, if there is one, to the free
list.

■When the check is normally complete, then the number is displayed on the
set that is doing the check-in.
■The display is changed to “CHECK-IN COMPLETE, DID=ddddd” where
ddddd is the DID assignment.
■The XDID port has the Hunt-to field filled in with the room extension.
■When the DID feature is active, hunt-to stations are treated as the called
station.
■When the DID station number is called, the call hunts before coverage and
the hunted-to station is treated as though it was dialed directly.
■Coverage applies as if from the hunted-to station.
■Incoming calls use the COS and COR of the DID.
■Outgoing calls use the room extension’s COS and COR.

Reset Shift Call
When a station call is made to a busy station, reset shift dial tone, called second
dial tone by the Japanese PBX manufacturers, is heard. During reset shift dial
tone, a single digit may be entered, which replaces the last digit of the originally
dialed extension, and the call is offered to the new station.
The length of the reset shift dial tone is administrable on a system basis and
should have a range of 0-255. It is normally set to 10 seconds. Japanese PBXs
can give this tone for up to 1 or 2 minutes before reverting to busy tone. If call
coverage is supplied for the incoming number, the call goes to coverage as
normal. If the coverage path is busy, the reset shift dial tone is heard and a single
digit may be entered as described above. This feature is only active for station to
station calls, not for incoming or outgoing calls. More specifically, the originator
and destination of the call must both be stations connected to the DEFINITY
system. In DCS or QSIG environments, both stations need not be connected to
the same DEFINITY
Operation for transfer and conference is similar. If, while one is setting up a
conference or transfer, the dialed party is busy, reset shift dial tone is heard and
an opportunity is provided for a last digit reentry as on a normal call.

NOTE:
Multi-function analog terminal (MFAT) sets do not receive reset shift
dial tone.
Performance Impact
This feature uses a port on a tone detector the entire time that a station is offhook
and listening to reset shift dial tone. This means that whenever this feature is
assigned, additional tone detector circuit packs may be needed. The number of
additional tone detector circuit packs will vary depending on the following things:
■The percentage of calls that encounter busy.
■The average length of time that station set users will wait, listening to reset
shift dial tone, before they dial a digit.
■The administered maximum duration of reset shift dial tone.
Requirements
■TN2182 tone/clock circuit pack, any suffix or vintage, or
■TN780 tone/clock circuit pack, vintage 2 or later.

■The destination uses out-of-band signaling — either CCMS or ISDN trunk
signaling — to signal “busy” back to the caller, then the calling set will
receive reset shift dial tone.
Out of band signaling operation
Play reset shift dial tone on busy calls for non-ISDN trunks that use out of band
busy signaling. This includes DCS trunks using out of band signaling such as X.25
or TCP/IP. Subsequent reset shift dial attempts if a user receives reset shift dial
tone, enters a single digit, and the resulting destination is busy, the calling set will
receive reset shift dial tone again and restart the reset shift timer.
Turn off special dial
The PBX turns off reset shift dial tone when it receives a dialed digit from the
station user. If a station user is listening to reset shift dial tone and the Reset Shift
Timer expires, the station user receives busy tone.
NOTE:
The reset shift timer can be set to 0, in which case busy tone is sent
instead of reset shift dial tone.
Maintain previous operation
When Reset Shift Timer field on systems parameter form is set to 0, operation will
revert as if the Reset Shift Call Feature was not implemented.

Administration
Initial Administration
To administer the reset shift call feature on a DEFINITY® system where it was not
previously used, the following procedure should be utilized:
1. In order to fully use the reset shift call feature, station extensions should be
assigned with contiguous numbers for groups of users. Thus, users with
similar job functions should have extensions that differ by only the last digit.
2. Set the Reset Shift Timer (seconds): field on the system parameters form
to a value other than 0. The value entered in the Reset Shift Timer
(seconds): field is the number of seconds that reset shift dial tone will be
audible before busy tone is heard.
Removing Administration
To disable the reset shift call feature on a DEFINITY® system where it is active,
set the Reset Shift Timer (seconds): field in the system parameters form to 0.

Timer administration
The system parameters features form has a new field for setting the reset shift call
timer. The new field is called Reset Shift Timer (seconds). The timer will have a
range between 0-255.
On an upgrade from a previous release to R8, the Reset Shift Timer field defaults
to 0, disabling the feature.
The Reset Shift Timer (seconds): field is on the feature related system parameters
form. It specifies the number of seconds that a station user can listen to reset shift
dial tone and have the opportunity to launch a new call by pressing a single digit.

NOTE:
Japan does not have national regulations covering the cadence,
frequency, or level of the reset shift dial tone. However, the de-facto
standard is to mimic Japanese PBX operations.
Reset shift dial tone frequency
The reset shift dial tone has a frequency of 400 Hz ± ±± ±20 Hz. This requirement
is based on the Fujitsu switch documentation for center frequency, and the
acceptable range is based on the NTT ranges 3 specified for the public network.
Reset shift dial tone cadence
The reset shift dial tone has a repetitive cadence of 100 (± ±± ± 20%) milliseconds
of silence, followed by 150 (± ±± ± 20%) milliseconds of tone, followed by 100 (±
±± ± 20%) milliseconds of silence, followed by 650 (± ±± ± 20%) milliseconds of
tone.
This requirement is based on the Fujitsu switch documentation for cadence, and
the acceptable range is based on NTT specification for the public network.
Reset shift dial tone level
The reset shift dial tone has the same level as the currently implemented
Japanese dial tone ± ±± ±2dBm. The range for this requirement is also obtained
from the NTT Tone board support.
The reset shift dial tone is provided by systems equipped with either the TN780 or
the TN2182B circui t packs.
