Step by step
You can configure the HiPath 1100 to send a warning 
tone in the event that no external line is available for 
LCR (see Programming Manual - Main Configurations - 
Warning Tone when LCR is not available). This will alert 
the user to the fact that the call is being completed by 
a standard Carrier and that rates may be higher than 
usual.
To warn the user that a different carrier is completing 
the call, the system telephone display will display "EX-
PENSIVE CONNECTION" and a warning tone will be 
heard.
ACS
1
With ACS (Alternative Carrier Selection) the system can 
be set to use a specific carrier regardless of user’s se-
lection. This feature allows you to choose the carrier 
that offers the best rates at the specified calling time or 
to select a default carrier for all calls, assuming conver-
sion rules are properly defined.
The first digits of the number dialed by the user are an-
alyzed by the system. If the system determines that 
they belong to Conversion rules, it replaces them with 
the rule’s preset numbers. The route/destination to be 
used can also be preset.  There is no field available to 
specify a carrier. The carrier code must be included in 
the conversion rule.
Different conversion rules can be applied to the same 
number, depending on the time of day and day of the 
week. It is possible to define a maximum of 100 conver-
sion rules.
Example: Number dialed: 262 XXXX
Conversion Rules:
(Alert)
[1] ACS does not affect Emergency Numbers when the user dials di-
rectly. 
A dialing rule may change if it is configured for using the Overflow 
option. 
Conversion rules must be configured using the HiPath 1100 Man-
ager.
