New Zealand Telecom Network - DSC PC-1616 - REV2 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 complies 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% available 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 timing set for test calls from this equipment may be subject to 'drift'. If this proves to be inconvenient and
your calls are interrupted, 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 memory 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.
