Your PBX may usedifferent telephone carriers to make calls to different areas in an effort to reduce costs.Automatic Route Selection (ARS) is a feature which automatically selects different carriers each time a COline call is made. In order to use ARS effectively, various ARS-related tables must be preprogrammed to tellthe PBX which calls should be placed using which carriers, during which time of day.If you do not activate ARS, if ARS is bypassed, or if you do not use multiple carriers, CO line calls will beconnected via the carrier contracted for each line (default carrier).
