Change an Access Code
A route access code (ACOD) directly selects a trunk member from a specific trunk group (route) for an outgoing call. Different trunk types, or routes, can be accessed using different codes - eg, 9 or 7. The ACOD is stored in the Route Data Block (RDB), along with other route-specific settings.
- Routes are groups of trunks of the same type, programmed in LD 16: Route Data Block.
- Trunks provide a bi-directional speech path, programmed in LD 14: Trunk Data Block.
Routes define general parameters shared by all trunks in the group, such as usage and access code. The RDB can be modified in LD 16, and printed in LD 21. As a best practice, always print the existing data before making changes, and save a copy (for example, in Notepad) for easy reference and rollback if needed.
Additional information can be found in: Software Input Output Guide X11 Administration - 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.

Route Data Block
Print the Route Data Block for the route you want to change in LD 21 - REQ: RDB, here for route 3. You will notice in the example below, the current ACOD (Route Access Code) is 7. Remember, Trunk Group Restrictions (TGAR/TARG) can prevent a station from accessing the ACOD.

Change the ACOD
We then can change the access code (ACOD) to 8 for route 3 (in this example) in LD 16 - hitting enter at all the prompts we don't want to change.
>ld 16 RDB000 MEM AVAIL: (U/P): 1094238 USED: 265633 TOT: 1359871 DISK RECS AVAIL: 2752 REQ chg TYPE rdb CUST 0 ROUT 3 TKTP Press enter at prompts we don't want to change ESN CNVT SAT RCLS DTRK NO PTYP AUTO DNIS IANI ICOG SRCH TRMB STEP ACOD 8 Enter the new access code, eg: 8 TARG : Press Enter at each prompt, until finished : DCTI MEM AVAIL: (U/P): 1094214 USED: 265657 TOT: 1359871 DISK RECS AVAIL: 2752 REQ **** Exit the load with four *'s, and test
Note, an ACOD may not conflict with the numbering plan. It may be up to 4 digits, or 7 digits with Directory Number Expansion (DNXP) package 150.
