Installation numbers

General description
This screen is used to parameterize the installation numbering (PCX number, international prefix,
Intercity prefix, recall prefix, alternative system CLIP, private installation number).

Fields description
Installation number

This field is used to define the PCX identification number. The number is sent on a call
from a public network. The last four digits represent the variable part and are defined on
the Public numbering plan screen.
Example:
The number of an installation is 390677100. The following numbers are defined in the
Description public numbering plan:
l 7100 for the attendant,
l 7101 to 7109 for stations 1 to 9.
If station 1 makes an external call, the number sent is 390677101. If station 1 has not been
entered in the public numbering plan, the number sent is the installation number.
Between 11 and 16 digits maximum, depending on the length of the international code.
The maximum number of digits in the installation number varies from 11 to 16 as the
length of the international code varies from 5 digits to no digits. For example, the
Content installation number can have:
l 11 digits (maximum) if the international code is 5 digits long
l 16 digits (maximum) if there is no international code

International prefix

Description This field is used to define the prefix to access the international network.
Content 9 digits maximum

International code

This field is used to define the telephone code for the country in which the PCX is located

Alternative System CLIP

This field is used for the CLIP (Calling Line Identification Presentation) function. This
function is dependent on the public network and is provided by PBX systems connected to a
public ISDN network (T0, T1, T2 access) or IP network (VoIP). It is used to configure the
number of the caller sent to the external correspondent for a call made from an ISDN
access. This number has priority over the installation number and uses different rules. The
Description caller number sent to the external correspondent is identical irrespective of the station
making the call and corresponds to the alternative system CLIP defined here.
Example:
A company with several sites can always send the same number to its external
correspondents.
Content 20 digits maximum

Private installation number

Public numbering plan Page 34 of 55

l Select another path when the most appropriate route is overloaded

This mechanism is applied independently of the type of:
l Trunk group (public or private)
l Call (voice or data)
It is implemented by the system when the Base field for the Main trunk group and Secondary trunk
group functions in the Internal dialing plan and the Private dialing plan is empty.
The available parameters for the ARS mechanism are:
l The Automatic Routing: Prefixes which determine which numbers are to be subjected to ARS
l The Gateway parameters (see: Gateway Parameters in previous versions or Gateway parameters
in latest versions)
l The SIP Accounts
l The SIP Public Numbering
l The Trunk Groups Lists used to determine which trunks are used for each specific route
l The Hours which divide up the day into ranges: attendants providing network services are
associated with groups of days for each range
l The Day Groups
l The Providers/Destinations table which lists the attendants providing network services
l The Authorization Codes i.e. the secret access codes for the indirect networks of attendants
l The Tone/Pause-MF table which defines the system reactions when a call is redirected to an
indirect network
l The parameters: ARS Miscellaneous.

Automatic Routing: Prefixes

Fast Start.
Each CODEC samples the voice at a certain frequency (e.g.: 8 kHz for G711) and returns a
set of samples. This set makes up a frame:
l G711: a frame corresponds to 1/8000 seconds of voice
l G723: a frame corresponds to 30 ms of voice
l G729: a frame corresponds to 10 ms of voice
Description
l G722/G711: a frame corresponds to 1/16000 seconds of voice
Framing (or RTP Packetization) indicates the number of frames present in an RTP packet
(e.g.: a framing of 60 ms in G723 therefore corresponds to 2 frames per packet).

Framing has a great impact on voice quality. The shorter the framing, the
shorter the delay introduced, therefore, the better the voice quality;
ATTENTION: however, this will increase the traffic generated and could possibly disrupt a
low rate link. The longer the framing, the longer the delay introduced; this
however would reduce the traffic generated.

By default:
G711 - 20, 30, 60: Framing of 20, 30 or 60 milliseconds associated with a G711 CODEC
G723 - 30, 60, 90, 120: Framing of 30, 60, 90 or 120 milliseconds associated with a G723
CODEC
G729 - 30, 40, 50, 60, 90, 120: Framing of 30, 40, 50, 60, 90 or 120 milliseconds
associated with a G729 CODEC
Values G722/G711 - 20, 30, 60: Framing of 20, 30 or 60 milliseconds associated with a G722/G711
CODEC (available as of OmniPCX Office RCE R9.1)
From OmniPCX Office RCE R6.0 or higher: G729 - 20, Framing of 20 milliseconds associated
with a G729 CODEC
From OmniPCX Office RCE R8.1: G711 - 20, 30, 60: Framing of 20, 30 or 60 milliseconds
associated with a G711 CODEC
ATTENTION: when G711 protocol is selected for fax, the Codec/Framing value must be less
than or equal to 60 ms.

General description
This screen is used to program the trunk groups lists used to establish a call via the Automatic Routing
Selection (ARS) mechanism. The call is established after analysis and any modification of the numbering
in accordance with the ARS table.
A trunk groups list consists of one or more trunk groups to which a provider of network services (or
internal recipient) is assigned.

Provider / Destination

This field is used to assign a provider of network services to each trunk group in a list.
These providers are defined on the screen Providers / Destinations (see Procedure). The
assignment order influences the selection of one provider over another.
If a provider has been defined for a trunk group, the system checks the validity of the
provider for the relevant time range in accordance with the parameters defined on the
screen ARS Hours.
If the provider is valid:
l the trunk group is selected if its link category 3 allows,
Description l otherwise the system overflows to the next trunk group.
If all fields are empty, the trunk group can only be selected if no provider of network
services is programmed for a day group in a time range.
It is also possible to associate each trunk group in a list with an internal recipient defined
on the screen Providers / Destinations. This is used in particular:
l to force an internal call: when a user tries to call a subscriber (connected to the
same system or to the same private network) by dialing his public number, the ARS
mechanism transforms the public number into an internal number,
l to select the internal recipients of a call depending on the time.
The procedural files stipulate that the attendants providing network services, the internal
