Using Free minutes option – step by step
1. If your gateway is preset by supplier to be used with some billing
scheme, you can continue with step 6
2. Collect all information about billing scheme you use from your operator.
3. You have to set parameters by PCManager. Connect the gateway to
your PC by serial cable and to power by adapter. When the gateway is
connected to network, you can set it by PCManager.
4. Set the table “FXS routing table”. Prefixes for different operators and
Free minutes bank should be used to divide calls to groups. The maximal
amount of groups – banks is 4. The maximal number of prefixes is 20
(number of lines in table).
5. Set the table “Free minutes bank”. You have to decide, if call with empty
bank will be permitted. Than fill the day, when the billing period starts.
Finally fill the table with rules for free minutes bank according to your
operator billing.
6. Set local prefix for fixed line, dependent on place where the gateway is
used.
7. Set the actual time, either by PCManager – monitor or by DTMF direct
access. When the time information is provided by network, this step is
not required.
8. If you have actually full amount of free minutes, you can use command
“Refill now”.
9. The gateway is now registering your calls and counting free minutes
from operator.
10. When the gateway is switched off for more than 5 hours and the time
information is not provided by network, you have to check, if the time is
set (see setting of the date and time).
11. Information about state of used free minutes is saved in memory
independent on power. This information is actualized after every call.
Warning
 The free minutes counting is intended to give information to user about
the state of his free minutes account. For billing is the registration done by
operator valid. When the difference between operator evidence and free
minutes counting occur, the billing is done according operator accounting.
