11.6 Testing Features with the Keypad
This feature is only relevant on a BRI access.
Some network operators do not support the standard DSS1 features, rather they expect the
user to control the network via so-called keypad command sequences.
In these cases, the desired facility is usually activated by entering a series of characters
and then sending these characters within a DSS1-specific protocol element. These so-
called Keypad-Elements are imbedded in a SETUP message. Each step is acknowledged
either acoustically (handset) or via special protocol elements (cause). These causes are
displayed by the ARGUS.
In the Single tests menu, select “Connection”.
Select “Keypad dial”
Using the cursor keys select the service that should be
used for the connection.
Enter the B-channel to be used for the connection via
the keypad (by default, the last B-channel used will be
suggested). When entering a new B-channel, first press
<DEL>. If you enter an *, the ARGUS will choose any B-
channel that is free. The ARGUS will show whether the
B-channel is available.
