PVR Benefits with Forward No Answer Function...Previously Impossible

ALTERNATIVE TO PVR THAT ALLOWS [bi]FNA OF TRUNK CALL[/bi]

By GHTROUT

PVR - Private Line Service - is a way to have a specific analog trunk extended directly to a key on a phone. The common uses include Automatic Ringdown lines and Telco provided lines between distant security or control centers. However, there are times when specific trunks must be assigned as keys on phones, where a variety of limitations exist. One of the limitations is that Private Line appearances are not controlled by the sets FNA value. The following method makes FNA possible.

Summary
[ul]
[li]Every trunk must be in its own route - in other words one route for every trunk that would have been a PVR.[/li]
[li]In order to define a KEY on a phone so that it appears as if it is the trunk, the HOT feature is used to dial the trunks route access code.[/li]
[/ul]

Create the Route LD16

[tab]LD 16
[tab]REQ new
[tab]TYPE rdb
[tab]CUST 0
[tab]ROUT 101 (variable as desired)
[tab]DES 5551212 (variable as desired)
[tab]TKTP cot
[tab]AUTO yes
[tab]ICOG iao
[tab]ACOD 5551212 (consider the last 4 or all 7 digits of trunk tel. number)
[tab]TARG 0

Assigning a KEY for the trunk on the telephone LD11

[tab]KEY 0 hot d 7 5551212 1212 h (h = incoming calls ring)
[tab]or
[tab]KEY 0 hot d 7 5551212 1212 n (n = incoming calls do not ring)

[tab][tab]"7" is the number of digits of the trunk route access code (ACCD)
[tab][tab]"5551212" is the trunk route access code (ACCD)
[tab][tab]"1212" is the DN of the KEY (same as trunk ATDN below)

Build the trunk LD14

[tab]LD14
[tab]REQ new
[tab]TYPE cot
[tab]TN 28 0 1 7
[tab]DES 5551212 (variable as desired)
[tab]CUST 0
[tab]RTMB 101 1
[tab]ATDN 1212
[tab]SIGL lop
[tab]CLS dtn
