Configuring System Setup Parameters
This parameter defines the code required by the switch to
access an outside line. This code is used by the Octel 50
system to obtain an outside line for outbound dialing
operations (message delivery, message waiting lights, and
wake-up calls) when the length of the destination phone
number equals or exceeds the Number of Digits in Local
Telephone Number. The Octel 50 system also uses this
code for AMIS network messaging when no AMIS Prefix or
Prefix Code is defined, regardless of the length of the
destination phone number.
This parameter is set when the Integrator utility is run, if
required by the switch.
This code consists of the number you normally press to dial
an outside line on the phone system, usually followed by a
comma to instruct the switch to wait momentarily before
dialing the number.
For most phone systems, the default 9, is used.
The minimum and maximum for this parameter refer to the
length of the entry allowed, not an actual number.
If the Code for Accessing an Outside Line is not properly
defined, the Octel 50 system will not be able to execute
outcalls.
The AMIS Prefix or Prefix Code parameters override the
Code for Accessing an Outside Line for AMIS outcalls.
