Change an Access Code

A route access code (ACOD) selects a trunk for an outgoing call. Different trunk types, or routes, are selected by a different code - eg, 9 or 7. The route access code is stored, along with many other settings such as the route trunk members, in the Route Data Block (RDB). The RDB can be modified with LD 16, but must be printed in LD 21. It's always a good idea to print data before changing it; copy/paste the printout into Notepad for easy reference.

Additional information can be found in: Software Input Output Guide X11 Administration - LD 21 and LD 16

The following printouts are examples used to demonstrate the proceedure.

Trunk Member data

You can print all of the Routes and Trunk Member data with LD 21 - REQ: LTM. This helps if you only know which TN a trunk is connected to.
