Q.850 Cause Codes

The following table describes codes that the ISDN switch sends to the VSX

system to indicate call status. Although the codes are standardized, each ISDN

service provider defines them differently. Because of this, the definitions in the

table may not exactly match the messages that you see.

Code

Cause

Definition

1

Unassigned number

The switch received the sent ISDN number in the
correct format, but no destination equipment uses
the number.

2

No route to specified
transit network

The ISDN exchange does not recognize the
intermediate network through which to route the
call.

3

No route to
destination

The intermediate network through which the call is
routed does not serve the destination address.

6

Channel
unacceptable

The specified channel does not provide adequate
service quality to accept the requested
connection.

7

Call awarded and
delivered

The user is assigned an incoming call that is being
connected to a call channel that has already been
established for this user and this type of call.

16

Normal call clearing

The originator or receiver of the call has requested
that it be cleared.

17

User busy

All B channels are in use; the called system
acknowledges the connection request, but is
unable to accept the call.

18

No user responding

The destination equipment does not respond to
the call, so the connection cannot be completed.

19

No answer from
user (user alerted)

The destination equipment did not complete the
connection within the prescribed time after
responding to the connection request. The
problem is at the remote end of the connection.

21

Call rejected

The destination equipment is capable of accepting
the call, but has rejected it for an unknown reason.

22

Number changed

The ISDN number used to set up the call is no
longer valid. (The diagnostic field of the message
may return an alternate address assigned to the
called equipment.)

26

Non-selected user
clearing

The destination is capable of accepting the call,
but did not assign it to the user.
