EXS API and SwitchKit API message
Description
This message instructs the Excel platform to establish a two-way connection between the two channels specified, for example, Channel A and Channel B.
If there is no active call up for Channel B, a seizure will be generated on that channel, and once seize ACKs have been met, the voice path is connected.
NOTE: This message treats the first span/channel and the second span/channel the same regardless of their inbound or outbound nature. Therefore, the answer supervision mode of only the second span/channel is meaningful in the Connect API message.

State (MSB, LSB) If the MSB of the preceding Status field is 0x18 (Invalid Channel B State) or 0x1D (Invalid Channel A State), then this field indicates the component state. If the State value is greater than 0xFF (255), then it is truncated to 0xFF.
If the MSB of the preceding Status field is neither 0x18 nor 0x1D, then the value in this field is 0x0000.
If the preceding Status field is a positive acknowledgement, this field does not apply. |
