Connect With Data 0x0005

SwitchKit Name

ConnectWithData

Type

EXS API and SwitchKit API message

Description

This message instructs the Excel platform to connect two channels.

This message also supports canceling digit collection, playing of call progress tones, voice path connect functionality, and dynamic configuration of release modes.

ISDN

If the terminating channel is not in an idle state, after seizure the alerting and connect indications will get propagated to the incoming side and the data specified in this message will get sent to the incoming ISDN channel.

SS7

You can use this message to pass parameter data for the ACM, ANM, or CON (ITU-TS only) in a connection between an incoming SS7 call (A Party) and another channel.

SIP (Call Agent)

The message carries the B side SDP (Session Description Protocol) information to the Excel platform in an NPDI Universal ICB and Generic PPL ICB. In a Generic PPL ICB, the Channel Service TLV indicates whether a bearer-switched or bearer-free connection is requested. For a bearer-free connection, the B side connection information is passed in the NPDI Universal ICB from the host.

Status (MSB, LSB)

Additional information is provided in the LSB of the Status field to assist Excel Tech Support in explaining application processing scenarios.

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.
