Autodialers are a excellent way to allow "Least Cost Routing" of various international calls through different long distance carriers, but they are especially useful for companies that are using international callback, or any service where a access # is dialed and then a authorization code is entered, followed by a desired called #.
Below you will find the introduction to the GSAutodialer. For multiple orders, a Sample and operation instruction can be sent to you upon request. We believe you will find it's powerful, flexible, and easy to use.
GS auto-dialer is a programmable call routing device specially designed for eliminating dialing procedure and routing calls through alternative carriers.
1. Features:
For example, say you are in H.K., and the number to access the alternative carriers' system is a local number, 12345678, and you have been assigned the PIN 98765, and you want to call someone in US at the number 4084672111. To make an international call using the alternative carriers, you dial 12345678, wait for the system to answer, wait for the system to prompt you for your PIN 98765 followed by the # sign, dial the destination number 0014084672111(00 means an international phone call), that's all. But most subscribers to the alternative carriers will find the above dialing procedure to cumbersome and may not want to go through the trouble every time. If you are the alternative carriers, to gain more customers you may want to be able to :
When you have an GS auto-dialer, that has been properly programmed to service a particular subscriber, installed on the subscriber's telephone line and connected to the telephone that he/she uses to dial. There's no need to instruct the subscriber to follow any special dialing procedure when making a long distance call. He/she simply dials the long distance call in exactly the same manner as he/she would normally do when dialing the long distance call throughout the regular telephone network of the telephone company.
All the dialing procedure described above that subscriber needed to follow to make a long distance call through the alternative carriers (without the use of GS auto-dialer) will be automatically performed by the GS auto-dialer in a manner that is transparent to the subscriber. In other words, the subscriber is unaware of dialing operation carried out by the GS auto-dialer. GS auto-dialer is, in fact, a little robot that emulates all the dialing action that other wise have to be performed by the subscriber to make a long distance call through the alternative carriers.
The operation of the GS auto-dialer is such that it is always ready to read the digits of all the telephone numbers dialed by the subscriber. Ordinarily, it allows all non-long distance calls to be dialed through the regular network of the telephone company, but once it detects that a long distance call (one that the alternative carriers wants to carry) is dialed by reading the first few digits of the telephone number dialed for the dialing code for long distance call or international call, it will intercept the call and perform two sets of actions concurrently.
In the case of example for the call to US, the subscriber in H.K. dials the number 0014084672111, and the GS auto-dialer will intercept the call as soon as it sees it- or reads the digits -001- and perform the following two sets of actions concurrently.
First set: It continues to collect and store all the digits dialed by the subscriber and when it has finished collecting all the digits dialed it remains off-hook with respect to the subscriber(the person doing the dialing).
Second set: It goes on-hook with respect to the CO (Central Office, i.e., the telephone exchange) for a predetermined (by programming) duration of 1 second or more and then goes off-hook and waits to detect dial tone and then dials the access number 12345678 that has been programmed in it. It waits for the prompt from the alternative carriers' system to enter the PIN followed by the # sign and tone dials 98765#. Upon detecting the next prompt for the destination number followed by the # sign, it dials tone 0014084672111, the number that the person had dialed and it had collected.
l DTMF: Dual Tone Multi Frequency, a fancy describing push button or touchtone dialing. In DTMF, when you press a button on a touchtone pad of a telephone, it makes a tone, actually the combination of two tones, one high frequency and one low frequency, thus the name Dual Tone Multi Frequency.
l Off-hook: when the telephone handset is lifted off its cradle. When the handset is removed from its cradle, it completes the electrical loop, thus signaling the CO that it wishes dial tone.
l On-hook: when the telephone handset is resting in its cradle. The telephone is not connected to any particular line. Only the bell is active, i.e., it will ring if a call comes in.
l PSTN: Public Switched Telephone Network, usually refers to the worldwide voice telephone network accessible to all those with telephones and access privileges.
