Least-Cost Routing (LCR)
This is a relatively simple implementation of LCR. Up to 50 codes of five digits can be programmed. Each of
these codes can be substituted with a code of up to 9 digits if a different carrier is to be selected for the dialed
code. Alternatively the code can be used to route the call over a particular line. Two timebands can also be
associated with the feature so the option to route the calls using the substitute codes or the alternative lines can be
automatically activated at two different times in a 24 hour period.
To Set up Codes to allow Calls to be routed on Specific Lines or Networks
1. From the programming extension, press the PROGRAM key.
2. Press the Scroll Down key () until “System Programming” is displayed.
3. Select “System Programming”.
4. Enter the System Programming Password and select “Lines”.
5. Scroll Down and select “LCR Codes”.
6. Select “LCR On” to activate the feature.
7. Enter in a code index (01-50).
8. Enter an input code (Up to 5 digits). Press “Confirm”. This is the code dialed by the user.
9. Enter an output code (Up to 9 digits). This is the code that will be inserted before the telephone number that
the user dials. This code can be used to select a specific telephone company.
10. Select the preferred or exclusive option.
11. If “Exclusive” is selected, the calls can only be sent on the lines selected.
12. If “Preferred” is selected, the calls will be routed on any available line, if none of the selected lines are
available. In this case, the output code is not dialed.

You can program the Least-Cost Routing feature to be automatically turned on and off twice during a 24-hour
period, enabling you to tailor your call charges through different service providers.

night to Monday morning; all off times over the weekend are ignored.
Automatic Line Selection
This feature is programmable off or on. When programmed as "off", the user must dial the line access code after
going off hook before an external line is selected. Default is set “off”
When Automatic Line selection is turned on when an extension goes off hook and dials a number, a free line is
selected automatically and the digits are sent to line. Internal calls are made by selecting the internal call menu on
Featurephone or by pressing Hookflash and dialling the extension number if an analogue phone (POTS) is used.
The Automatic Line Selection feature seizes the line from Outgoing group 1 (9). If this line is busy, it will take
automatically the next free outgoing group.
