The BRI (Basic Rate Interface) Access button is a button programmed on any of the first ten

buttons on your telephone. Using this button, you can use BRI features available through your

local telephone company, known as the central office or CO.

Similar to the MERLIN LEGEND Trunk-to-Trunk Transfer feature, the Central Office (CO) Transfer

feature allows you to connect the caller to a branch office in a distant office or redirect a local or

long-distance misdialed number to the correct number. By using the BRI Access button to dial the

destination station of your call, the BRI lines to the MERLIN LEGEND system are available for

additional in-coming calls and call handling. In addition to the CO Transfer feature, the BRI Access

button also identifies the last line used for a call for use with the Local Area Signaling Services

(LASS) features. The LASS features provide you with call management capabilities:

Automatic Callback

Automatic RecalI

Note: Depending on your CO, the names of these features and their feature codes, and the

voice prompts you hear may vary.

Each of these features can be activated on any multi-line telephone with a Personal Line button

for the BRI line on which the call was placed or received. However, use of the LASS features is

not recommended in a pool environment.

Note: There can be only one BRI Access button on a telephone.

Check with your system administrator that your telephone has been programmed to use the

BRI Access button features. Procedures for using each of these features follow.
