ANI Call Format Field

The ANI Call Format field identifies the call string format for the ANI Decoder #. The format is a free form string entry of up to 16 digits. These include digits 0 - 9, A-D (A-F for other formats), *, # and the following characters:

I (Caller ID) – Placed into the ID field of the ANI packet or the ANI field of the caller portion of the telegram. The ID is stored as a 32-digit string in the packet.

G (Group Digits) – Stored in the Group section of the ANI packet. The group value is converted to a decimal number and is stored as an 8-digit string in the packet.

S (Status) – Digits represented by S are interpreted as status information. These values are converted to decimal numbers and stored as an 8-digit status string in the ANI packet. The console has a corresponding list of the status numbers and descriptions that are displayed upon receipt of the packet.

P (Pause) – When inserted into the string, a pause is expected in this location. The pause duration is set in the Pause Duration field (see “Pause Duration Field” on page 67).

R (Calling ID) – Used to delineate the location of the digits being used for a selective call. These digits represent the address or ID of the person being called. They are stored in the ANI packet as an 8-digit string.
