Description
This program address determines the dialing format that will be recognized
by the DBS 824 for accessing a preferred interexchange carrier. This address
applies only to outgoing calls that are subject to toll restriction, and to DBS
824 systems that are programmed to use the new NANP dialing plan (see
program address FF7 l# 16#).
Under the old dialing plan, callers can dial 10xXx to reach their preferred
interexchange carrier. Within this dial sequence, the "XXX" indicates the
carrier identification code (CIC).
In the new North American Numbering Plan, the preferred carrier format is
being changed to 101xXxX (the CIC code is expanded to 4 digits, and "10"
is replaced with "101").

Notes
Allowing Both CIC Formats During Transition Period. The public network
is currently providing a transition period during which both preferred-carrier
formats are recognized for choosing the preferred carrier. Likewise, the DBS
824 system will also allow both formats, as long as the extension or dialed
number does not have any toll restrictions assigned to it, and the system is
programmed to use the new NANP dialing plan.
