Transfer
DESCRIPTION
CONSIDERATIONS
This feature is for rotary lines only. If you have telephone lines that carry rotary
signals, use the Touch-Tone Enable feature to switch to Touch-Tone signals
midway through a dialing sequence. This lets you take advantage of bank-by-
phone, credit card authorization, and alternate long distance services.
Once you press the Touch-Tone Enable button, all remaining digits of the
number generate Touch-Tone signals. To return to rotary pulse; press Recall.
You can use the Transfer button to transfer intercom, tie, line, and outside calls
to someone else in your MERLIN II system.
There are four ways to transfer calls:
If you have an Auto Intercom button for the person to whom you want to
transfer a call, and if the system is set for One-Touch Transfer, you can
transfer a call with one touch.
You can transfer a call by dialing the intercom number.
You can announce the call before you transfer it.
You can screen a call before you transfer it.
Pooled and square systems are factory-set for One-Touch Transfer so that to
transfer a call, the attendant simply presses the Auto Intercom button for the
person to whom the call is being transferred and the call is automatically
routed there. However, if you would prefer to announce the call before it is
transferred, then the system must be administered for One-Touch Hold with
Call Announcement.
One-Touch Transfer is the recommended option for pooled systems, and
One-Touch Hold with Call Announcement is the recommended option for
square systems.
Behind-switch systems are factory-set for One-Touch Hold with Call
Announcement and cannot switch to One-Touch Transfer.
How to Use
To switch from rotary pulses to Touch-Tone
signals as you dial a number:
1 Lift your handset.
2 Dial the first part of the number.
3 Press Touch-Tone Enable.
4 Dial the remaining numbers.
When you hang up your handset, the Touch-Tone
feature turns off automatically.
