Outwats
Outwats is for outgoing calls. This allows you to originate calls to telephones in a
specific geographical area called a zone or band. Typically a flat monthly fee is
charged for this service.
Inwats
Inwats is a type of long distance service which allows you to receive calls
originating within specified areas without a charge to the caller. A toll-free number
is assigned to allow for reversed billing.
Consult your customer service representative to determine whether or not this
feature is compatible with your provider.
Emergency 911 dialing
The ISDN PRI feature is capable of transmitting the telephone number and internal
extension number of a calling station dialing 911 to the Public Switched Telephone
Network. State and local requirements for support of Emergency 911 dialing
service by Customer Premises Equipment vary. Consult your local
telecommunications service provider regarding compliance with applicable laws
and regulations. For most installations the following configuration rules should be
followed, unless local regulations require a modification.
• All PSTN connections must be over PRI
• In order for all sets to be reached from a Public Safety Answering Position
(PSAP), the system must be configured for DID access to all sets. In order to
reduce confusion, the dial digits for each setshould be configured to correspond
to the set’s extension number
• The OLI digits for each set should be identical to the DID dialed digits for the
set
• The routing table should route “911” to a PRI line pool
• If attendant notification is required, the routing table must be set up for all 911
calls to use a dedicated line which has an appearance on the attendant’s console
• The actual digit string “911” is not hard-coded into the system. More than one
emergency number can be supported
If transmission of internal extension numbers is not required or desired, then it is
recommended that the person in charge of the system maintain a site map or
location directory that allows emergency personnel to rapidly locate an Enterprise
Edge set given its DID number. This list should be kept up to date and readily
available.
