STATION BLOCK
Description The Station Block contains all the information needed to call or
transfer a caller to a particular phone number. The bulk of the Station Block
defines the various call progress signals. It also contains any additional dial
strings needed to reach a particular station (like dialing ‘9’ to access a trunk).
One of the handiest features of the Station Block is the Call Progress Training
facility. This feature allows you to provide phone numbers and have SVMi-4 call
them to learn the ringback and busy signals automatically. The SVMi-4 then
adjusts the appropriate parameter settings in the Station Block according to the
data collected by calling the provided numbers.
Most Blocks that reference a telephone number, such as Extension Blocks, can,
when necessary, also reference a Station Block allowing you to specify explicitly
what kind of station a particular phone number represents.
This is particularly useful for unique stations that must be handled in a special
way. However, this usually isn’t necessary. Station Blocks contain a set of
matching strings which allow the SVMi-4 to select an appropriate Station Block
based on the kind of number being dialed (all seven digit numbers, four digit
numbers beginning with ‘3’, ‘0’, long distance numbers, etc.). The SVMi-4
requires at least one Station Block to make supervised calls and you can create
as many Station Blocks as desired.
