Mitel NuPoint Messenger Technical Documentation - Release 7.0
Digits absorbed 0
Offset 200
This means that any set of two digits received on DID maps as follows:
17 (digits received on DID)
17 (do not absorb any digits)
+200 (add signed offset)
217 (mailbox number)
Notice that, given the DID parameters in example 2, only mailbox numbers 200 through 299 can
be accessed from this DID trunk.
Example 3. This example illustrates a situation where the offset plus the dialed number leads to
digit carrying. Assume:
Digits expected 4
Digits absorbed 0
Offset 250
This means that any set of four digits received on DID will map as follows:
1587 (digits received on DID)
1587 (do not absorb any digits)
+250 (add signed offset)
1837 (mailbox number)
Note: DID NuPoint Voice uses “normal” addition, adding 1587 and 250 to get 1837. Applications using
“no-carry” math, such as Enhanced Inband, add each digit separately, discarding any carried digits.
Day and Night Hours
Parameters that establish day and night hours (and work days versus weekend days) operate in
the DID NuPoint Voice application the same as in the NuPoint Voice application. See the
NuPoint Voice Application chapter for more information.
Mailbox Dialing Plan
The available DID number block may only allow a certain range of extension numbers. Ideally,
mailbox numbers should match the DID numbers. This makes it easier for callers to remember
the proper mailbox number. While a mailbox owner with a single mailbox could get along fine
without ever knowing his mailbox number, owners of multiple mailboxes often need access to a
series of mailboxes without the inconvenience of making a telephone call to each DID number.
This is a particularly valuable feature for mailbox owners who are traveling and call from a long
distance away.
In all other respects, you establish a DID NuPoint Voice mailbox dialing plan the same as
described for NuPoint Voice. For more information on the dialing plan, see the NuPoint Voice
Application chapter.
