DIAL PLAN (E&M) > USER TERM > IFCE CONFIG > SIGNALING METHOD
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Defines to the ATLAS 550 the type of signaling to be used across this trunk. The signaling selected needs
to match the signaling being provided by the network (PSTN). The following choices are available:
•E&M Wink
•E&M Immediate
DIAL PLAN (E&M) > USER TERM > IFCE CONFIG > DIRECT INWARD DIALING
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Defines to the ATLAS 550 whether Direct Inward Dialing (DID) is being used by the network. If DID is
ENABLED, then the following information must be defined:
DIAL PLAN (E&M) > USER TERM > IFCE CONFIG > DID DIGITS TRANSFERRED
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Defines the number of digits sent to ATLAS 550 from the network if DID is used. This option only displays
if DID is set to ENABLED.
DIAL PLAN (E&M) > USER TERM > IFCE CONFIG > CALLER ID NUMBER
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Defines the number the ATLAS 550 uses to provide caller ID to the network for outgoing calls sent
through this endpoint. This item is optional.
DIAL PLAN (E&M) > USER TERM > IFCE CONFIG > STRIP MSD
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Strips a selected quantity (choose from NONE, 1, 2, and 3) of the Most Significant Digits (MSD) of a dialed
number prior to being forwarded out of the port.
Example: A network port could be set to accept all calls beginning with 9 (9$), and then with STRIP MSD
set to 1, all digits would be sent toward the network except the leading 9.
The ATLAS 550 converts signaling types between two endpoints (network or user terms).
The Caller ID number must be specific (i.e., no “wild cards”).
Strip MSD does not affect Call Accept criteria. All of the digits (including the MSDs that
are subsequently stripped) are used as accept criterion.
