Each MF Incoming Call Profile object is a child of an MF Local Exchange object. MF Incoming Call Profiles are used to interpret the digit sequences received to define other properties of the call, for example whether operator hold should be used for the call.
Each MF Circuit Group that can carry incoming calls is associated with an MF Incoming Call Profile object. When configuring an MF Circuit Group that can carry incoming calls, you should specify an MF Incoming Call Profile with an appropriate digit map for the MF signaling protocol to be used.
Each MF Incoming Call Profile object is the parent to multiple MF Outgoing Call Profile Data objects.
Note that you cannot delete a Call Profile object while it is referenced by a Circuit Group.

Description |
Call profile name | Change | Unique user-friendly name identifying the Call Profile. Specify a name of up to 30 characters. If a name is not specified, the EMS displays a default. |
First Digit Map | Change | A digit map defining the valid MF digit sequences that can be received as the first digit sequence on circuit groups using this profile. This field must be specified. The format of this digit map is described in Digit Map format below. Default: ([ABCD]X.[EFGH]|[ABCD]X.[EFGH][ABCD]X.[EFGH]) |
Second Digit Map | Change | A digit map defining the valid MF digit sequences that can be received as the optional second digit sequence on circuit groups using this profile. This field is optional; if it is not specified, all Incoming Call Profile Data child objects of this profile must have only one digit sequence. The format of this digit map is described in Digit Map format below. Default: ([ABCD]X.[EFGH]|[ABCD]X.[EFGH][ABCD]X.[EFGH]) |
Requested status | Read only | Specifies whether an administrator has attempted to enable the MF Incoming Call Profile. Values:
|
Actual status | Read only | Specifies the current status of the MF Incoming Call Profile. Values:
|
The digit map is specified as an ASCII string enclosed in parentheses. It can contain a number of entries separated by vertical lines, but there are no vertical lines at the start or end of the string.
Character | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H |
MF digit | KP | KP' | KP'' | KP''' | ST | ST' | ST'' | ST''' |
For example, the entry ([ABCD]X.[EFGH]) indicates one of the KP digits, followed by one or more numerical digits, followed by one of the ST digits.
Note that, if an incoming digit sequence is a possible match for two or more entries in the digit map, an implicit timeout is used to determine which entry to match. For example, if the digit map contains 1X and 1XX and the incoming digit sequence begins 12, the match process waits after the 2 to determine if another digit will arrive, instead of matching immediately on the 1X entry (as it would in the digit maps used in Number Validation). If possible you should design the digit map to avoid ambiguous entries that will result in matching delays.
