Electra Elite IPK II Document Revision 1
Automatic Route Selection 2 - 67
Conditions
Do not use ARS behind a Centrex/PBX.
ARS is intended for areas that use the North American Number Plan (NANP).
Line keys, Call Appearance (CAP) Keys, outgoing trunk group keys, dialing 704 + trunk
group, dialing +trunk number, and abbreviated dial numbers assigned to a certain trunk
group can all be used to by-pass ARS.
If there is no PBX access code entered in the Dial Treatment, the system will still be able to
dial 911.
Toll Restriction overrides ARS.
A system with Automatic Route Selection cannot also have Trunk Group Routing.
With ARS installed, Trunk Queuing automatically queues for the least costly route. The
system automatically redials the queued call when the extension user lifts the handset.
Abbreviated Dialing may bypass ARS routing.
Set up other options for outgoing calls (e.g., unassign line keys, adjust gains, ARS access
key, Call Appearance (CAP) Keys, etc.).
Refer to the Dial Tone Detection feature for the specifics on how the system handles Dial
Tone Detection.
ARS does not permit 0 and 011+ calls to be routed out separate trunk groups. The IPK II
will only support direct trunk selection for dial 0 (Operator) type calls.
If an entry of 911 is programmed in ARS, but ARS is turned off, 911 calls will still attempt to
route using ARS.
Default Setting
ARS is off (disabled) at default.
