Features and Services
Proceed to Send message to the firmware
A “Proceed to Send” message must be sent to the firmware in cases of non
dial pulse trunks, as soon as the software is able to receive digits. To support
this functionality, overlay 14 must be configured with DTCR = YES. A new
H0019 message is sent when a Digitone Receiver (DTR) signal is found for
Dual-tone Multifrequency (DTMF) signaling, or when a Multifrequency
Compelled (MFC) sender/receiver is found for Multifrequency Compelled
(MFC) signaling. If a DTR signal is not found, the call is released.
PPM and Buffered PPM downloadable on a per country basis
To support this functionality, Periodic Pulse Metering and Buffered Periodic
Pulse Metering (PPM) are enabled on a per trunk basis, rather than on per card
basis. Configuration of PPM and Buffered PPM is still done on a per route
basis.
Audit conflict reporting and PPM event reporting
To support this functionality, a channel and card parameter download audit is
performed during initialization and when LD 30 is run as a midnight routine.
This is to ensure that the software configuration is the same as the
configuration stored in the hardware. If a discrepancy is detected, the
software information is stored in the hardware and an error message is printed
on the TTY. Also, for PPM recording, two new type 5 messages have been
defined to report hardware problems. These are the TRK Event: Partial
Metering Detection Failure message and the TRK Event: Fatal Metering
Detection Failure message.
On partial PPM failure, a TRK516 error message is printed on the TTY. If
PPM is configured, CDR records for any calls in progress may be incorrect.
If Busy Tone Supervision is configured, busy tone may not have been
detected for calls in progress. On fatal PPM failure, a TRK517 error message
is printed on the TTY. If PPM is configured, further PPM reporting is
disabled until the pack is either disabled and then reenabled, or removed and
then reinserted. The CDR record for any call in progress is incorrect. If Busy
Tone Supervision is configured, tone supervision can no longer be performed
until the pack is either disabled and then reenabled, or replaced.
Network DID and Enhanced Night Service groups on DID
No software changes are required to support these functionalities on the
XDID/DOD cards.
