A sample Dialing Translation Table taken from a site located in Mountainview, 
California.

A sample Dialing Translation Table taken from a site in area code 206 near the 
border with area code 360.

The Dialing Table Translation results in a number that can be dialed on the local 
network. The final step is to add (prefix) digits to the beginning of the number to 
reach the local network from your Norstar System. Systems that are behind a PBX 
must have digits prefixed to the beginning of the telephone number. In North 
America “9” is typically prefixed to the beginning of the telephone number. 
Systems attached to the central office (CO) lines do not require digits to be prefixed.

Explanation
The Dialing Translation Table is empty. The local network in 
Mountainview supports 10 digit national dialing with 
recognized long distance charging.
In situations like the Mountainview example, there is no need 
to build a Dialing Translation Table.
