End of dialing (outgoing)
End of dialing in outgoing calls is indicated by MFC signal “I15” (or equivalent country-specific 
signal). This signal is sent if the far-end requests next digit beyond the last digit of the dialed 
number.
When R2MFC MBM originates a call to the CO, the R2MFC MBM has already received the 
whole dialed number from the BCM. This is because the digits are passed from BCM to the MBM 
by PRI “en-bloc.” This operation mode means that BCM determines user end-of-dialing either by 
number of digits, explicit input from user (for example, the “#” digit), or timeout.
Disable ANI
The ANI request option can be disabled. When disabled: 
• Incoming call — R2MFC MBM does not request ANI.
• Outgoing call — When far end requests ANI, R2MFC MBM answers “ANI not available.”
Default category
The MFC subscriber category, sent by R2MFC MBM in outgoing calls, is fixed. The default 
category for all countries is II1 (subscriber without priority). If needed, the default can be changed 
by CLI.
Default subscriber status
The user can set default subscriber status (for example, free, busy, and vacant number) for 
incoming calls. When this feature is enabled, the R2MFC MBM in an incoming call sends the 
preset default subscriber status, instead of the status received from the PRI status.
The subscriber status option is not enabled in R2MFC MBM; therefore, the subscriber status is 
translated from ISDN message to MFC, and vice versa.
Minimum (or fixed) number 
length and timer
Minimal number of digits Receiving minimum number of 
digits + optional number of 
digits means end of dial 
(maximum length reached)
When a fixed length number is 
always expected, set the 
optional number of digits to 0.
No
Minimum (or fixed) number 
length and timer
Optional number of additional 
digits
No
Minimum (or fixed) number 
length and timer
Interdigit timer in the minimal 
interval (long timer)
Expiry of the long timer means 
MFC error - number 
incomplete.
No
Minimum (or fixed) number 
length and timer
Interdigit timer in the optional 
interval (short timer)
