Trunk Group
Incoming Dial Type
Indicates the type of pulses required on an incoming trunk group. Usually, you should match what your
central office provides. See

appears for Tie trunk groups when the Trunk Signaling Type field is blank, cont, or dis.

Incoming Rotary Timeout (sec)
Call setup at central offices that still use older switching equipment, such as step-by-step technology, is
considerably longer then at central offices with more modern media servers. If you're receiving digits
with incoming calls from a central office that uses less efficient switching technology, your media server
or switch needs to allow more time to ensure it receives all the incoming digits. When the Incoming Dial
Type field is rotary, use this field to set the maximum time your end will wait to receive all incoming
digits from the far-end switch.

Types of address transmission
Usage
Enter tone to use Dual Tone Multifrequency (DTMF) addressing,
also known as "touch tone" in the U.S. Entering tone actually
allows the trunk group to support both DTMF and rotary signals.
Also, if you're using the Inband ANI feature, enter tone.
For pulsed and continuous E&M signaling in Brazil and for
discontinuous E&M signaling in Hungary, use tone.
Enter rotary if you only want to allow the dial pulse addressing
method used by non-touch tone phones. Though the tone entry
supports rotary dialing as well, it's inefficient to reserve touch tone
registers for calls that don't use DTMF.
Enter mf if the Trunk Signaling Type
Multifrequency Signaling field must be enabled on the
System-Parameters Customer-Options screen in order for you to
enter mf here.
You may not enter mf if the
for page 2) is y.
For pulsed and continuous E&M signaling in Brazil and for
discontinuous E&M signaling in Hungary, use mf.
Usage
If the system is connected to a step-by-step central office, or any CO
using older switching technology, enter at least 18 seconds; if not,
enter at least 5 seconds.
