Recording System Operating Conditions

Second Dial Tone Timer
In some instances, after dialing a star code the CO responds with a second dial
tone as a prompt to enter additional digits. Once a star code is accepted by the
communications system, the Second Dial Tone Timer is activated and set to the
programmed value. If dialing is attempted before the Second Dial Tone Timer
expires, the call is treated as though it had violated calling restrictions and is not
completed.
!
SecurityAlert:
If the Second Dial Tone Timer is set to 0 ms and a caller begins dialing
additional digits before the second dial tone, system restrictions may be
bypassed and a restricted call may be routed. Careful administration of the
Second Dial Tone Timer prevents the caller from bypassing call restrictions
in this manner.
Marked System Speed Dial entries (entries that do not display) are not affected by
the Second Dial Tone Timer setting. If the Central Office does not immediately
supply dial tone when a star code is entered and a Marked System Speed Dial
entry uses star codes, then the appropriate number of pauses (each 1.5 seconds)
must be programmed in the entry following each star code.
Planning Form Instructions
Under the Second Dial Tone Timer heading, enter the desired value. Valid entries
are 0 – 5000 ms in increments of 200 ms. The system default is 0.
Applications
Several call-handling and management applications can be used with the system,
including voice mail and messaging; call accounting and reporting; and call
management, distribution, and reporting. This section contains instructions for
noting those applications that will be used with this system.

Planning Form Instructions
On Form 1 (pages 3 and 4):
1. Check the name of each application that will be connected to the system.
2. For each application name you check, you may want to include pertinent
information in the Notes section. For example, you can note the version of
the application installed at the customers site.
