Enable / Disable Least Cost Routing

Description
To use Least Cost Routing, it must be enabled. Before enabling LCR, refer to the Least Cost
Routing programming tables.
After the tables are programmed, you may then enable LCR for the system. After system
initialization, a default LCR database is loaded into the LCR section of memory.
Programming Steps
1. Press the LCR ENABLE flexible button (FLASH 05, Button #7).
2. Enter a 0 or 1 that corresponds with the following entries:
[0] = Disabled
[1] = Enabled
3. Press HOLD to save the entry. A confirmation tone sounds.
DEFAULT ... LCR is disabled.

Call Cost Display

Description
The Call Cost Display feature allows a user to view the approximate cost of each call made.
This approximate cost is also printed as part of the SMDR record. The Call Cost Display
replaces the call duration display when a call is made using LCR.
The cost information is programmable by selecting one of the 16 route list tables and one of
the four time periods. This allows the user to program four separate costs based on the time
of day for each of the 16 routes. The costs entered in the tables are costs for one minute,
however, costs are calculated using a 1/10th of a minute value. These costs are rounded
down and are based on the start time of the call, even if the call extends into a different time
period. The SMDR printout contains a cost calculated using a 1/10th of a minute increment
and the display updates approximately every 30 seconds.
Programming Steps
1. Press the CALL COST DISPLAY flexible button (FLASH 05, Button #11).
2. Enter a 0 or 1 that corresponds with the following entries:
[0] = Disabled
[1] = Enabled
3. Press HOLD to save the entry. A confirmation tone sounds.
DEFAULT ... Call Cost Display is disabled.
