When the receiver is lifted the extension<br />
is connected to a tone sender that sends<br />
the dialling tone, after which dialling<br />
can start. If a conventional telephone set<br />
with a dial is used, the dialled digits are<br />
received direct in the extension line<br />
circuit, but if a telephone set equipped<br />
for tone frequency key sending is used,<br />
the digits are received by a push-button<br />
dialling tone receiver, which is connected<br />
to the tone sender. In both cases<br />
the digit information is transferred via<br />
the bus system to the control system for<br />
further analysis. If the digit analysis indicates<br />
that the call is internal, a connection<br />
is set up via a free local junctor<br />
trunk to the desired extension. If the call<br />
is external, a free line is connected up<br />
to a dialling tone receiver. Thus the extension<br />
is now connected to a tone<br />
sender and a trunk line to a dialling<br />
tone receiver.<br />
The external number can now be dialled<br />
and registered in the same way as in the<br />
case of an internal call.<br />
When the public exchange works with<br />
decadic impulsing the external number<br />
is transmitted with the aid of circuits in<br />
the trunk line circuit regardless of<br />
whether the extension has a telephone<br />
set with a dial or a push-button telephone<br />
set. The dialling tone receiver is<br />
disconnected when the dialling tone has<br />
been received. In cases where there is a<br />
second dialling tone the receiver remains<br />
connected until this tone has<br />
been received. The extension is connected<br />
to the external line when the dialling<br />
tone ceases. The tone sender is disconnected<br />
when the transmission of digits<br />
is <strong>com</strong>pleted.<br />
When an external call <strong>com</strong>es in, the<br />
trunk line is connected to the operator's<br />
console, after which the operator can<br />
dial the desired extension number and<br />
set up the call. A characteristic feature<br />
of ASB 100 is that the operator works<br />
with only one operator link. It is used<br />
only when the operator is actively engaged<br />
in any part of the call handling.<br />
Other functions, which concern the<br />
operator's work indirectly, such as ringing,<br />
camp on busy, parking etc., affect<br />
only the units concerned, for example<br />
external and extension lines, and are<br />
controlled <strong>com</strong>pletely from the central<br />
control system.<br />
Control system<br />
The control system in ASB 100 is built up<br />
around processor APN 163, developed<br />
by LM Ericsson, which is a powerful,<br />
general purpose 16-bit processor that is<br />
designed for a number of applications in<br />
different fields of activity.<br />
The choice of memories was based on a<br />
desire to obtain high flexibility at a low<br />
cost. For this reason permanent mem-<br />
