ACD Configuration 
 
2.3.1.  Call Arrival 
The 
INFORM HOST ON ARRIVAL
 telescript step causes a call arrival 
message to be sent to the PG each time a call arrives at the Spectrum. The 
PG begins tracking calls upon receiving the arrival message. Failure to 
insert the 
INFORM HOST
 step will result in the call not being tracked until 
later in the call delivery sequence. The net result is that the call time 
reported by the Unified ICM may not be accurate. The inaccuracy of the 
reported call time varies based on the call type (ACD, DID, etc.) and the 
destination as determined by the routing telescript. The inaccuracy can 
range from a few hundred milliseconds to many seconds depending on the 
Trunk Group configuration, Agent class of service, and application 
telescripts that the call passes through. It is therefore required that all 
routing telescripts contain an 
INFORM HOST
 step as early as possible in 
the routing telescript.  
2.3.2.  Translation Routes 
The Cisco Translation Routing feature requires that a 
REQUEST HOST
 
telescript step be added to all routing Telescripts that process Translation 
Routes. The 
REQUEST HOST
 step causes a route request message to be 
sent to the PG for the given call. The PG will respond to this message by 
presenting a destination to the Spectrum, which in turn will send the call to 
the specified destination. This step should only be added to those Routing 
Telescripts, which process Translation Routed calls. Failure to add this 
step will cause Translation Routed calls to be incorrectly delivered. 
Adding this step to a Routing Telescript, which is not processing 
translation routed calls may cause calls to be incorrectly delivered. 
2.3.3.  Basic Routing Telescript Example  
 
1 RETRIEVE NETWORK INFORMATION 
2 INFORM HOST ON ARRIVAL 
3 ROUTE TRANSLATION 
2.3.4.  Translation Routing Telescript Example  
 
1 RETRIEVE NETWORK INFORMATION 
2 REQUEST HOST INSTRUCTION ON ARRIVAL 2 SECONDS 
3 ROUTE TRANSLATION 
2.4.  Unified ICM Required Application Telescript Changes 
The current Unified ICM product requires you, as the customer, to modify 
existing application telescripts in order to supplement the default 
information the Spectrum sends over the Transaction Link. The 
supplemental changes are sent over the Transaction Link using the 
INFORM HOST ON SI
 application vector step. The Spectrum PG decodes 
the host_info portion of the 
INFORM HOST ON SI
 step to determine a 
call‟s supplemental state. These steps are used to inform the PG that a call 
has been offered to a Spectrum application, a call has been queued to a
