2.02 ARS
(for New Zealand)
Description
Automatic Route Selection (ARS) is a system
programmable feature that automatically selects
the least expensive route available at the time an
outgoing CO call is made. It is executed by
dialing the feature number for "ARS/Local CO
Line Access" from a DN button, then making a
long distance call or local call.
A typical application is to deny most extension's
dial access to all trunk groups. This forces
extension users to use the ARS feature, which
should results in reduced toll charges.
To utilize the ARS feature, program the preferred
call routing plan in the system programming
"Automatic Route Selection," then set "System-
Operation", Automatic Route Selection to "Yes."

Conditions
1. ARS Restriction
ARS is restricted by "System-Class of Service",
ARS/Local Access, as follows:
• If "No ACCS" (No Access) is set, making an
outgoing CO call is impossible (reorder tone is
returened.)
• If "W/RSTR" (With Restriction) is set, calling is
possible with restriction by "System-Class of
Service", Trunk Group Access.
• If "No RSTR (No Restriction) is set, calling is
possible regardless of the assignment of "Sys-
tem-Class of Service", Trunk Group Access.

ARS applies to the call after the toll restriction
procedure.
If an extension user selects the desired outside
line directly (Individual Line Access), ARS does
not function and a call is routed via selected
CO line.
1. Lift the handset or press the SP-
PHONE button.
2. Dial the feature number for
ARS/Local CO Line Access "9"
(default).
3. Dial the telephone number of the
external party.
• The system follows the pre-
programmed sequence and
selects the least expensive
route.
• The dialed digits are then sent
after the system adds or deletes
digits according to the ARS
programming.
