New Zealand Telecom Network - DSC PC1616; PC1832; PC186 User Manual

New Zealand Telecom Network

The following is a list of warnings applicable when this equipment is connected to the New Zealand Telecom Network :
General Warning
The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates only that Telecom has accepted that the item com-
plies with minimum conditions for connection to its network. It indicates no endorsement of the product by Telecom, nor
does it provide any sort of warranty. Above all, it provides no assurance that any item will work correctly in all respects with
another item of Telepermitted equipment of a different make or model, nor does it imply that any product is compatible
with all of Telecom's network services.
Reverse Numbering (decadic signalling)
Decadic signalling should not be used as it is being progressively phased out of the network. DTMF dialling is 100% avail-
able and it should always be used.
Line Grabbing Equipment
This equipment is set up to carry out test calls at pre-determined times. Such test calls will interrupt any other calls that
may be set up on the line at the same time. The timing set for such test calls should be discussed with the installer. The tim-
ing set for test calls from this equipment may be subject to 'drift'. If this proves to be inconvenient and your calls are inter-
rupted, then the problem of timing should be discussed with the equipment installer. The matter should NOT be reported
as a fault to Telecom Faults Service.
D.C. Line Feed to Other Devices
During dialling, this device unit does not provide DC voltage to the series port connection and this may cause loss of mem-
ory functions for the terminal devices (local telephone) connected to T-1, R-1.
General Operation (Ringer Sensitivity and Loading)
This device only responds to Distinctive Alert cadences DA1 and DA2.
