Blocking incoming calls from a specific DID number 1

[Firediver4]

Basic question: Is there a way to program a 61C to dis-allow incoming DID calls on a certain directory number, but yet allow on-campus calls to that same number, short of contacting the phone company and having them block that DID number?

Background: We have a certain DID number that is the originator number for a Tellabs preset conference unit. The Tellabs unit has one originate station (the DID number) and nine analog phones as answer-only stations. When any user dials this number, the Tellabs unit automatically rings nine specific analog "hotline" phones, and those stations ring independantly until answered or until they time-out. The option of using a different phone number for this application is not an option - it has to be what it is, and cannot be changed to a non-DID number. The problem we are having is periodic telemarket calls coming in from off-campus setting off the Tellabs unit. We would like to be able to prevent this by programming on the 61C rather than having to go through the phone company. Any suggestions?

not a problem, ld 49
prt
idc
return.. if you have one chg it to include your dn, if not add one

newidc
0
1
1000
1000 2000
what that would do is change 1000 to 2000, just put your dn in first, then any number, even a vacant one

then in 21 prt rdb of your did route.. to find the route number if you don't know.. ld 21 ltm

then in 16 change rdb, cust 0 rdb x, return down to the idc prompt, enter yes and at the next two prompts enter the dnco number, sounds a lot harder then it is.. give it a try or i can post the code tomorrow
