Mode 1A5

Mode 1A5 has been used to toggle whether or not to record Call Type within the CDR. Checking the box (and then polling the phone) will cause the phone to begin recording the Call Type within the Call Detail Record. Then CDR is collected from the phone by Call Type, (set in the General tab of the Call Processing window), saving time and money by not collecting unneeded information. When the Call Detail Records are analyzed using the Call Accounting window or Call Accounting report, Coin Call and 0+ call totals are further divided to show the Call Type. Recording and collecting CDR by Call Type is only available when using Y2k compliant firmware. Also, a properly configured Cost record is necessary to classify a call by Call Type. Cost files obtained from Protel and Protelís distributors contain the necessary information to take advantage of this useful and money-saving feature.
