Autopatch Call Counter
The Autopatch Call Counter keeps track of the number of autopatch calls
attempted. A call is attempted if the controller accepts the phone number as
being valid and begins to dial.
• The call counter starts at 000 and increments by one for each call. After
reaching 999 calls, the counter will start over at 000.
• The counter may be read in CW by entering the Send Autopatch Call Count
command on page 7-49. The counter may be cleared (forced to 000) by
entering the Clear Autopatch Call Counter command on page 7-48.
• The counter value may also be included in a CW or speech message. (See
page 4-35.)
• Uses for the call counter include monitoring autopatch activity, and reducing
the activity in cases where there are monthly limits on the number of calls
allowed.
