Node Route Selection (Nrs) - Panasonic DBS Section 540 Reference Manual

Network Feature Operation

Node Route Selection (NRS)

(CPC-EX)
Descriptions
To reduce long distance charges, long distance calls made on a DBS (node)
may be automatically routed through another DBS before outdialing to the
public network. This is called Node Route Selection.
NRS is accessed by dialing "9" before placing a call.
Each DBS NRS table contains up to 50 NRS entries. Each entry contains the
dialed number to match (up to 6 digits), the minimum number of digits to be
dialed, and the network DBS (1-4) to receive the call.
NRS will process the call using the NRS entry with the most complete match
possible. For instance if one NRS entry is 1201 and another is 12013, then if
12013333333 is dialed, then the 12013 NRS entry is used. If 12014444444 is
dialed, then the 1201 NRS entry is used.
