Recommendation Q.931 (03/93)

Table I.2 indicates the usage of cause values within this Recommendation. Other usage may be provided within other Recommendations, e.g. Q.700-Series and Q.699. Other causes may also be used by Q.931 entities where this is not precluded by the procedures defined elsewhere in this Recommendation.

Table I.1 defines the key for the location of generation in Table I.2. For more precise usage of the location codes in the cause information element, see Recommendation Q.850.
