Facility test calls
The Facility Test Calls feature provides a voice terminal user the capability of
placing test calls to access specific trunks, touch-tone (DTMF) receivers, time
slots, and system tones. The test call can be made by a local voice terminal user
by dialing an access code.
NOTE:
For the ISDN-PRI Test Call feature, see ‘‘Troubleshooting ISDN-PRI Test
Call Problems’’ later in this chapter.
NOTE:
The following test call descriptions are for voice terminal users:
Trunk test call
The trunk test call accesses specific Tie or CO trunks. DID trunks cannot be
accessed.
NOTE:
Do not use this trunk test call procedure to test ISDN-PRI or ATM-CES
trunks. For more information on testing ISDN-PRI or ATM-CES trunks, see
ATM-BCH, Test #258.
To place a call:
1. Dial the Facility Test Call Feature Access Code (administered on the
Feature Access Codes screen), and listen for dial tone.
2. Dial the 6-digit port number "PCSSpp"
The channels on a DS1 trunk are addressed by using the channel number
for the port number.

C = Carrier number (A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4, E=5)
SS = Slot number (01—20)
