Entries in this field are text strings you use to describe charges related to a phone 
call. This field appears for CO, DIOD, FX, and WATS trunk groups when the 
Direction field is

Receive Analog Incoming Call ID
Your switch stores and displays 15 characters of name and number information 
associated with an incoming call on analog trunks (ICLID, or incoming call line 
identification information). This field appears for CO, DID, and DIOD trunk 
groups when the Analog Trunk Incoming Call ID field on the System-Parameters 
Customer-Options screen is 
y and the Direction field is incoming or two-way.
Incoming Tone (DTMF) ANI
This field appears only when the Incoming Dial Type field is 
tone. Digits received 
through Automatic Number Identification (ANI) are printed on a CDR record, 
passed to the Intuity AUDIX and ASAI interfaces, and displayed on the phone 
(and on tandem calls if the outgoing trunk requires ANI). Then the digits are sent 
to the outgoing trunk.
Per Call CPN Blocking Code 
For Access, APLT, CO, DIOD, FX, tandem, tie, and WATS trunk groups only.

Time (sec) to Drop Call on No Answer
This field appears if the Group Type field is 
co or diod and the Outgoing Dial 
Type field is 
mf, or if the Group Type field is co, diod, fx, wats, and the Country 
field is 
15.

Outgoing ANI 
If this trunk group is used for an outgoing call with ANI, the entry in this field 
overrides the normal ANI. The ANI is sent exactly as administered, except for the 
normal truncation to 7 digits for Russian ANI. This ANI override works both for 
calls originated in DEFINITY ECS and calls tandemed through it. This field

100Enter the minimum interval between seizure acknowledgment 
of a trunk and the outpulsing of digits. This field cannot be 
blank. For trunks that do not provide seizure acknowledgment, 
the timer specifies the minimum time between seizure and the 
outpulsing of digits. Any digit the caller dials after they lift the 
receiver, but before the timer expires, is not outpulsed until the 
timer expires.
Valid entries Usage
100
 to 25500 in 
increments of 
100Enter the minimum interval that must elapse between a trunk’s 
release from an incoming call and its seizure for an outgoing

This timer appears only if the Incoming Dial Type field is

NOTE:
This timer is never sent to TN429 ports.
Incoming Seizure (msec)
This field appears when the Direction field is 
incoming or two-way, and, when 
applicable, the Trunk Signaling Type field is 
cont. Only TN429, TN438 (any 
release), TN 447, TN464C (or later), TN465 (any release), TN767, TN2138, 
TN2140, TN2147, TN2184, and TN2199 ports receive this timer. For DID trunks, 
only TN2199 and TN429D (or later) receive this timer.
Valid entries Usage
200
 to 51000 in 
increments of 
200Enter the minimum time the switch requires to determine if a 
trunk disconnects. The field cannot be blank. If the ringing 
signal disappears for a duration longer than the time specified 
in this field, the switch assumes the call has been disconnected.
Valid entries Usage

Outgoing Rotary Dial Interdigit (msec) 
This field only appears when the Outgoing Dial Type field is 
rotary.
Outgoing End of Dial (sec)
This field controls firmware answer supervision timers on circuit packs that have 
them. It appears when the Direction field is 
outgoing or two-way and the Receive 
Answer Supervision field is 
n. If the Receive Answer Supervision field is y, this 
field does not appear and the firmware timer on the appropriate circuit pack is 
automatically disabled.
NOTE:
The Answer Supervision Timeout field on the Trunk Group screen provides 
timed answer supervision for circuit packs without administrable timers. 
Since trunk groups may contain ports on more than one circuit pack, it’s 
possible you may need to use both timers with the same trunk group. If so, 
set the Outgoing End of Dial field and the Answer Supervision Timeout 
field to the same value.
During a cut-through operation, timing begins after the switch sends each 
outgoing digit and ceases when answer supervision is received. If the timer 
expires, the switch acts as if it has received answer supervision. On senderized 
operation, the timer begins after the switch sends the last digit collected. The timer 
ceases when answer supervision is received. If the timer expires, the switch acts as 
if it has received answer supervision. 
Valid entries Usage
150 
to 2550 in 
increments of 
10Enter the minimum acceptable interval between outgoing 
rotary digits. The field cannot be blank.
Valid entries Usage
1
 to 254 in 
increments of 1Enter the maximum time, in seconds, that the switch will wait 
to receive answer supervision for outgoing calls on the ports 
controlled by firmware timers. For Brazil pulsed E&M 
signaling, use 
40.

 to 255 in 
increments of 1 Enter the maximum interval that the switch should wait after 
sending a seizure signal to receive seizure acknowledgment
