About this document
The DISPCALL utility captures all available data associated with the death
of a call or a call that is being held for trouble analysis. The formatted
output displays the Call Condense Block (CCB) and the Call Data Block
(CDB). DISPCALL can also be used to capture and display data about calls
in progress.
When to use this document
Northern Telecom (NT) software releases are referred to as batch change
supplements (BCS) and are identified by a number, for example, BCS29.
This document is written for DMS-100 Family offices that have BCS34 and
up.
More than one version of this document may exist. The version and issue
are indicated throughout the document, for example, 01.01. The first two
digits increase by one each time the document content is changed to support
new BCS-related developments. For example, the first release of a
document is 01.01, and the next release of the document in a subsequent
BCS is 02.01. The second two digits increase by one each time a document
is revised and rereleased for the same BCS.
To determine which version of this document applies to the BCS in your
office, check the release information in DMS-100 Family Guide to Northern
Telecom Publications, 297-1001-001.
How to identify the software in your office
The Office Feature Record (D190) lists your current BCS and the NT
feature packages in it. You can view similar information on a MAP
(maintenance and administration position) terminal by typing
>PATCHER;INFORM LIST;LEAVE
and pressing the Enter key.

What precautionary messages mean
Danger, warning, and caution messages in this document indicate potential
risks. These messages and their meanings are listed in the following chart.
Message Significance
DANGER Possibility of personal injury
WARNING Possibility of equipment damage
CAUTION Possibility of service interruption or degradation
Examples of the precautionary messages follow.
DANGER
Risk of electrocution
The inverter contains high voltage lines. Do not open the front
panel of the inverter unless fuses F1, F2, and F3 have been
removed first. Until these fuses are removed, the high voltage
lines inside the inverter are active, and you risk being
electrocuted.

WARNING
Damage to backplane connector pins
Use light thumb pressure to align the card with the connectors.
Next, use the levers to seat the card into the connectors. Failure
to align the card first may result in bending of the backplane
connector pins.
CAUTION
Loss of service
Subscriber service will be lost if you accidentally remove a card
from the active unit of the peripheral module (PM). Before
continuing, confirm that you are removing the card from the
inactive unit of the PM.
How commands, parameters, and responses are represented in
command descriptions
Two command conventions exist:
•command expansion - representations of commands including all
parameters, variables and syntactic characteristics
•command example - representations of commands as they are entered
Command expansion conventions
A command table is used for a command expansion. This table consists of
the following two sections:
•the command expansion, which contains
- all parameters
- all variables
- hierarchy (the order in which elements must be entered)
- syntax
- truncated and abbreviated forms when allowed
- defaults
•the parameter and variable descriptions. This section follows the
command expansion and contains an alphabetical listing of all
parameters and variables with a description of each.
Command elements are represented exactly as they are entered, except when
Italic font is used to indicate that an element is a variable name or a certain
default.

viii About this document
TAM-1001-003 Standard 3.01 July 1992
Commands
The command is represented in bold type. When commands are not
case-sensitive, they are in lowercase.
The command appears to the left of all other elements (parameters and
variables).
When truncated or abbreviated forms of a command are allowed, they
appear directly beneath the long form of the command.
Parameters
Parameters are represented in unbolded type. When parameters are not
case-sensitive, they are in lowercase.
Variables
Variables are represented in italics. Italics indicates that the variable, as
represented, is not entered, but replaced with an element, a value, range,
number, or item from a list.
The numbers, values, ranges, and lists are described in detail for each
variable in the parameters and variables description section below the
expansion.
Hierarchy
The order in which command elements are entered is represented by their
order of appearance, from left to right. When several elements appear in a
vertical list, only one of them may be selected for that position.
Defaults
A default parameter is underlined.
The action the system takes when an element in a vertical list is not required
is called a default action, and is usually an action indicated by one of the
elements that can be selected. Occasionally, the default action is something
different than one indicated. These non-selectable defaults are represented
by the word, “default,” in italics, to indicate that it is never entered. The
default is then described in the parameters and variables section.
Related groups of elements
When an element is directly followed by another element, the second
element is required when the first element is selected.
To distinguish which elements relate to which, brackets surround those
elements that, as a group, pertain to other elements. Only those elements
that horizontally directly precede or follow the brackets are related to the
elements within the brackets. When elements are not in brackets, only those
elements that directly precede or follow them are related.
