Nortel BCM number format 83x83 instead of 383

Oct 27, 2006 0 Replies

Hello We have here a BCM 200 with VOIP phones attached. Then, the Nortel TAPI Interface serves our application TAPI data about telephony activity. When an external call is announced, TAPI tells us about the target (CallInfo.CalledId) like "81x81" not 381 when executing internal calls with the same line/phone.



To be honest, I am not a PBX service professional. So I asked one and he said: "the provider sends only two digits, therefore there must be an x". Nice, but I need a complete number not such fuzzy numbers. IT could be



381,481,581 whatever.... I did some RTFM and found notes about "target lines" and number lengths, but didn't really get the picture. Does someone has an idea what could be the the cause for the x?

Many thanks Another Programme
