Emergency Transfer: Pre-determined CO lines and station are directly connected in the event of power or system failure. DTMF/DP Trunk assignment: Both PB (DTMF) and DP CO lines can be accommodated in the system. DTMF/DP conversion: The system converts dial signals received from the station to that of the CO line. For example, DP signal received will be converted to PB (DTMF) signal for PB CO line or tie line and vice versa. Direct-in-line (DIL): Specific incoming CO line or RD tie line is directly converted to the specific station. Simplified Direct Inward Dialling (DID): When a call is terminated at a special central office line (DID line), the system responds with alone or a message asking the caller to dial to the station number. After receiving the (PB signal) station number, the system will connect the call through. Assignment of CO access code to trunk routes: By setting up more than one CO trunk special code, the trunk routes can be assigned matched with the originating special codes. Trunk Route Advance (Alternative routing): When all the CO lines of a selected route are busy, an alternate route can be selected. Connected Restriction Class: Each station is assigned with a class of service restricting or allowing origination of international subscriber calls. Toll restriction: Station assigned from class 3 to 6 is restricted from originating TOLL calls. Area code restriction: Station assigned to class 2 is allowed to call certain predetermined toll areas. Class of service change: The class of service of station is determined in the connection restriction table. But a different table can be made flexible and can be changed by the special number. Special local number restriction: The originating call to special local numbers can be restricted. Station class, change with password: Dialling a password from a station can change the station service class.
