Calling a Remote Number (Hop Off Dialing)
If your AltiWare systems are configured to allow Hop Off dialing—using
a remote trunk to place an outgoing call—you can do that as follows:
1. Dial IP trunk access code (e.g. 8).
2. Dial the remote system ID digit (e.g. 3).
3. Dial *, which selects the PSTN trunk with the lowest value in the
access code.
4. Dial the phone number (e.g. 14085551212).
5. Optionally, press # to speed up the call.
For example, to call 650 555-4444, using your local IP trunk access code
of 8 and the remote system with an ID of 3, you would dial 8 0 *
16505554444#, this will call 14085551212 using a CO trunk on the remote
system.
You can also replace the * with a 9 to select the remote access
trunk access code 9. The specific trunk access code only
works for ‘9.’ You cannot select ‘8’,’ 7,’ or ‘6,’ etc., as the
trunk access code using this dialing method unless the remote extension for
this system is set to ‘unknown.
Note: The remote Extension Length must be always be set to None for
the remote system entry, if using Hop Off Dialing.
Hop On Dialing to a Remote Extension
To hop onto a remote extension:
1. The incoming call must come in over T1 or the CO to an extension.
2. The extension is set up to forward over IP to the remote extension.
