3.Select both the Incoming and Outgoing Signaling Type.

■Select either Wink, Auto, or Delay. The factory setting is Wink.

The Incoming Signaling Type selected will determine the Incoming Routing

Method:

■If the Incoming Signaling Type is set to Auto, the Incoming Routing Method is Line Appearance Routing. Incoming data calls are typically terminated at a data extension/endpoint that has a personal line appearance. The 1B data call may also terminate at a data extension/endpoint in a calling group.

■If the Incoming Signaling Type is set to Wink or Delay, the Incoming Routing Method is Dial Plan Routing. Incoming data calls are routed by dial plan and may terminate to an SA button on any data extension within the system.

If the switch is part of a private network, data calls can be routed to another switch in the network. T1-emulated tie lines need to be assigned to a pool and programmed to a route. The route must be marked as Data Only.

4.If the Incoming Signaling Type is programmed as Wink or Delay and incoming data calls are routed by dial plan, you may have to manipulate the incoming digits by deleting or adding digits. This is because, in many cases, the digits that are sent by the service provider may not match the programmed dial plan. See the Network Reference for more information.

Enter the following Dial Plan Routing options:

■Expected Number of Digits. Check the expected number of digits (1–4). The factory setting is 3.

■Number of Digits to Delete. Check the number of digits to delete (0–4) in order to match the Dial Plan. The factory setting is 0.

■Specific Digits to Add. Enter the specific digits to add (1–9999) to the collected digits in order to determine a routing pattern. If no digits are to be added, check 0. The factory setting is 0.
