A ds1fd station is not meant to be used with a T1 coming from the CO, that is one of the ways used when you connect a T1 to an IVR.

Mapping station 2001 to use channel one of T1 one, is this for incoming or outgoing calls?

If it is for incoming there is nothing you can do to force the call to always be on the first channel. The vendor providing the T1s has to do that.

If it is for outgoing what you do is make a trunk group consisting of that channel only and then set a route pattern for 2001 to use only that trunk group. The problem comes when that channel is seized by an incoming call, 2001 will get a busy signal.

But you are implying that you need to control which channel all outgoing calls will use. Again, if this is incoming the T1 vendor must do this.

Perhaps if you explain why you want to do this we might be able to come up with a solution. Just keep in mind that even if you can always get station 2001 to use channel 1, station 2002 to use channel 2, station 2003 to use channel 3, etc; if that channel is in use by an incoming call the station is going to get a busy signal calling out.
