Matrix PRASAR UCS System Manual 563
The numbers of the contacts may not necessarily appear alphabetically or in a sequence. It is possible that
the numbers of the same contact may be programmed at different memory locations in the Global
Directory.
In the above example, one number of the GoodLife Inn is configured at memory location Index 0104 and
the other on Index 0129. Since these two numbers are grouped and assigned the number alternate group
number '004', this number must be entered against the GoodLife Inn numbers at the respective memory
location Index.
• After assigning Alternate Number Groups, click Submit.
• Enable the features Last Number Redial and Global Directory, in the Class of Service (CoS) group of
the extensions to which Alternate Number Dialing facility is to be provided. If desired, Auto Redial, Auto
Redial Priority may also be enabled in the CoS of these extensions.
By default, Station Basic Feature Template Number 01 is assigned to all extensions of the system. The
default CoS Group 01 in this template has 'Redial' enabled in the set of 'Basic Features', so all extensions
of the system can use Last Number Redial.
However, the default CoS Group 01 has only Global Directory Part 1 enabled.
Recall that Alternate Number Dialing will work only for those numbers that exist in the Global Directory
assigned to each extension. So, the Global Directory Part containing the Alternate Number Groups must
be allowed to the extensions in their Class of Service. For example, if Alternate Number Groups are
programmed in Global Directory Part 2, extensions must have Global Directory Part 2 in their Class of
Service.
If all extensions are to be allowed the Alternate Number Dialing facility, simply enable the Global
Directories containing Alternate Number groups in the default CoS group 01.
However, if Alternate Number Dialing is to be allowed to select extensions only, define a new CoS group
and prepare a new Template with this CoS group and apply it to the desired extensions.
Refer the topics “Class of Service (COS)” and “Station Basic Feature Template” for detailed instructions.
