5.22.3.2. Identification via "APIN" Code (Manual PIN) Previous topic Parent topic Child topic Next topic

The "APIN" code, i.e. the home station number followed by the assigned PIN, must be entered as follows:
CDAPIN + STNOhome stno + # + PIN + #
(Note: STNOhome stno = CDnode number + STNOhome station/extension number)
The delimiter between the station number and the actual PIN is the "#" character.
In networks with open numbering schemes, users must enter the node number assigned to their "home" node in front of their home station number. If entering a PIN identification procedure within their own node, users can omit the node number.
As a positive acknowledgement, the display will show "Identifikation STNOhome stno" ("Identification: STNOhome stno"). For wrong PIN or wrong home station number entries, "nicht erlaubt" ("not allowed") will be displayed as a negative acknowledgement. For other wrong entries, "nicht moeglich" ("not possible") will be displayed as a negative acknowledgement. For Digites without display units, the appropriate positive or negative acknowledgement tone or announcement will be heard instead.

Users receive the following display outputs when identifying themselves:

1. Input: CD APIN

2. Input: 1st digit of STNO home stno

3. Input: remaining digits of STNO home stno + #

4. Input: 1st digit of PIN
hg00aa23.wmf.png
5. Input: remaining digits of PIN + #
hg00aa2e.wmf.png
IMPORTANT:
stno is normally the user's home station number, but may also be the number of the "foreign" station used, depending on the user's COPIN.
Users have the option of correcting their entries at each stage of the procedure, i.e. the home station number or PIN entry can be repeated if mistakes are made during input.
