Timer Modified to Allow for Forced Account Code Interdigit Timer
Programming has been changed which will allow the adjustment of the interdigit timer used
for Forced Account Codes. Previously, this was fixed at 3 seconds.
Depending on your software, the system will use the time set in Program 21-01-04 : System
Options for Outgoing Calls - Dial Tone Detection Time for the interval the system will wait
for a user to enter a Forced Account Code. By default, this option is set to 5 (Entries: 0-64800
seconds).
● Verified Account Codes
With Verified Account Codes, the system compares the Account Code the user dials to a list of
up to 1000 pre-programmed codes. If the Account Code is in the list, the call goes through. If
the code dialed is not in the list, the system prevents the call. Verified Account Codes can be
from 3-16 digits long using the characters 0-9 and #. During programming, you can use “wild
cards” to streamline entering codes into system memory. For example, the entry 123W lets
users dial Verified Account Codes from 1230 through 1239.
Operator Notification
To prevent Account Code abuse, the system can notify the operator each time an Account Code vio-
lation occurs. This can happen if the user fails to enter an Account Code (if Forced) or enters a Veri-
fied Account Code that is not in the list. The notification is an automatic Intercom call to the
attendant and a “RESTRICT” message in the operator’s display. (If the attendant fails to enter a valid
Account Code, the system drops the call.)
Account Codes for Incoming Calls
The system can control the ability of extension users to enter Account Codes for incoming calls.
When this option is enabled, a user can dial * while on an incoming call, enter an Account Code,
and then dial * to return to their caller. If the option is disabled, any digits the user dials after
answering an incoming call outdial on the connected trunk.
Hiding Account Codes
Account Codes can be optionally hidden from a telephone’s display. This would prevent, for exam-
ple, an unauthorized co-worker from obtaining a Verified Account Code by watching the display and
making note of the digits that dial out. When hidden, the Account Code digits show as the character
“*” on the telephone’s display.
Account Code Capacity
Account Codes print along with the other call data on the SMDR record after the call completes.
Account Codes can be 1-16 digits in length using 0-9 and #. Verified Account Codes can be from 3-
16 digits long.
Redialed Numbers Do Not Contain Account Codes
When using the Last Number Redial, Save or Repeat Dial features, the system will not retain
Account Code information. Any number redialed with these features, the user will need to reenter
an Account Code.
Note:
If a user enters *12345*203 926 5400*67890*, if the Last Number Redial feature is used, the sys-
tem dials the number as 203 926 5400*67890*. The *67890* is not treated as an Account Code.
