HOW THE LINE HUNTER WORKS
The Line Hunter has been designed to provide effective call processing functionality for two
applications.First and foremost, it is a powerful call processor that handles
outbound traffic seamlessly. Feature-rich and robust, The Line Hunter excels as a workhorse
built for high-traffic commercial environments. The second function is designed for
applications where inbound traffic routing is not important.
2-IN-1 FUNCTIONALITY: The Line Hunter is a versatile 4-Line Call Processor that
effectively handles two processing functions:
- FUNCTION 1 - FULL FUNCTION: Precision Inbound Call Routing
Line Hunting
- FUNCTION 2 - Outbound Line Hunting
NO CALL ROUTING CAPABILITIES. Calls will only be directed to the PRIMARY LINE PORT

ROUTING - The Line Hunter is a four line call processor that uses the "Selective Ring" service provided by the
phone company to route calls to the proper port.
up to two other unique phone numbers that will ring in a distinctive pattern when a phone call addressed to the
specific number comes in. For line 1, a single burst ring will ring device l, a double burst ring will ring device
2, and a triple burst ring will ring device 3. The same ring sequence is followed by Lines 2,3, and 4.
The "Selective Ring" service goes by different names depending on the telephone company - Custom Ring
U.S.
RingbyVerizon, etc. These 'ring management' services all work in the same manner. Up to three different
telephone numbers can be requested from the phone company. The numbers ring through a single line coming
i
nto the business or residence and each number can be distinguished by the pattern of the ring. These ring
patterns are made up of various combinations of ring bursts.
Example of the different ring patterns:
Original Telephone Number- Regular Ring
Second Telephone Number - 2 Rings (Short Burst - Short Burst)
Third Telephone Number - 3 Rings (Short Burst - Short Burst - Long Burst)

HUNTING - The Line Hunter hunts for an available line in a sequential order. That is, a device attached to
port 1, 2, or 3 will be connected to line 1 if available. If line 1 is not available, it will be connected to line 2, 3,
or 4 if they are available. If no lines are available, the device will not be connected to any outside line. A busy
tone can be provided to any device that requests an outside line when none are available (programmed using
DIP SWITCH).
HUNT ORDER - The hunt order for devices runs sequentially - Ports 1, 2, 3 first try to access LINE 1, then
LINE 2, LINE 3 and LINE 4. Ports 4, 5, and 6 start with LINE 2, LINE 3, LINE 4 and LINE 1. Ports 7, 8, and 9
