Standard Q931 Codes

Decimal Value Hexadecimal Value
Definition

1 01 Unallocated (unassigned) number.
This number is not in the routing table or it has no path
across the ISDN cloud (network).
1. Check routing table to see it the number is available.
2. Check to make sure the correct digits were dialed and it is a valid
number.

2 02 No route to specified transit network (national use).
The number was dialed with a transit network code such as 108880 to from
AT&T to MCI
and there is no route across.

3 03 No route to destination.
The dialed number is
in the routing plan, but there is no physical route to the destination. 1.
The
PRI D-Channel may be down at one end or the other. 2. The span or WAN is not
connected correctly.

4 04 Send special information tone.
Indicates that the called party cannot be reached for reasons that are
of a long term nature and
that the special information tone should be returned to the calling party.

5 05 Misdialed trunk prefix (national use).
Indicates the erroneous inclusion of a trunk prefix in the called party
number.

6 06 Channel Unacceptable.
Indicates that the channel most recently identified is not acceptable to the
sending
entity for use in this call.

7 07 Call awarded and being delivered in an
Established channel.Indicates that the user has been awarded the incoming
call,
and that the incoming call is being connected to a channel already
established
to that user for similar calls (e.g. packet-mode virtual calls).

8 08 Pre-Emption.
Indicates that the call is being pre-empted.

0 09 Pre-Emption
Circuit reserved for reuse. Indicates that the call is being cleared because
one
of the users involved in the call has requested that the call be cleared.

16 10 Normal Call Clearing.
This is one of the most common cause codes and is received
for many reasons. It usually occurs because someone hung up the call at one
side
or the other.

17 11 User Busy.
The number dialed is busy and cannot receive any more calls.

18 12 No User Responding.
The called party does not respond to the call, or does not wish to answer
the call.


19 13 No Answer from User (User Alerted).
The called party has been alerted to the incoming call, but does not respond
with a connect indication within a prescribed period of time.
NOTE: This cause is not necessarily generated by Q.931 procedures but
may be generated by internal network timers.

20 14 Subscriber Absent.

not obtained with a mobile station or if a personal telecommunications user
is
temporarily not addressable at any user-network interface.

21 15 Call Rejected.
Indicates that the equipment sending this cause does not wish to accept this
call, alth9ough it could have accepted the call because the equipment
sending
this cause is neither busy nor incompatible. May also be generated by the
network, indicating that the call was cleared due to a supplementary service
constraint.

22 16 Number Changed.
This is returned to a calling party when the
called party number indicated by the calling party is no longer assigned.
The
new called party number may optionally be included in the diagnostic field.
If a
network does not support this cause value, cause number 1 shall be used.

26 1A Non-Selected User Clearing.
Indicates that the user has not been awarded the incoming call.

number
is not in a valid format or is not complete. This can happen when you are
calling out
using a network type number (enterprise) when you should be calling out
Unknown
or National for the Type of Number (TON).

29 1D Facility Rejected.

This cause is included in a STATUS message to indicate that a permanently
established frame mode connection is operational and capable of carrying
user information.

41 29 Temporary Failure.

functioning correctly and that the condition is not likely to last a long
period

in
the diagnostic.

44 2C Requested Circuit/Channel not Available.
This cause is returned when the circuit or channel indicated by the
requesting entity cannot
be provided by the other side of the interface. This may happen when you get
in
a glare condition: Both sides are selected top-down or bottom-up channel
hunting.

cannot be supported).

50 32 Requested Facility Not Subscribed.
