Product Enhancements
Fax Attendant 2.1.1
Fax Attendant Release 2.1.1., which co-resides with AUDIX Voice Power on the
IS III Release 1.2 platform, provides the same functionality as earlier versions,
plus the following enhancements:
Personal Fax Messaging. Inbound faxes can be stored until the
subscriber asks that they be printed, at any fax machine he or she
specifies, on company premises or off-site (when the subscriber retrieves
fax messages remotely).
Fax Mail. Allows subscribers to send fax messages, get fax messages,
record personal greetings, and program outcalling.
Fax Broadcast. Provides a simple way to send one fax to as many as
1000 fax numbers.
Call Accounting System (CAS) for Windows
This stand-alone version of CAS takes advantage of the easy-to-use graphical
environment offered by Microsoft Windows. Through data communications, it also
allows one CAS system to serve multiple business sites.
Group Video Conferencing
Group video conferencing is supported over DS1 (Digital Signal Level 1) facilities
with PRI. (Video conferencing has been available since Release 2.0.)
Release 3.1 Enhancements
Release 3.1 includes all Release 3.0 functionality plus the enhancements listed
below.
Security Features
New security features include a variety of components. Additional details are
included elsewhere in this book.
Call Restriction checking for star codes
Beginning with Release 3.1, the system manager can add star (*) codes to
Allowed and Disallowed Lists to help prevent toll fraud. Star codes, typically dialed
before an outgoing call, enable telephone users to obtain special services
provided by the central office (CO). For example, in many areas, a telephone user
can dial *67 before a telephone number to disable central office-supplied caller
identification at the receiving party's telephone. (You must contract with your
telephone service provider to have these codes activated.)
When users dial star codes, the MERLIN LEGEND system's Calling Restrictions
determine whether the codes are allowed. If allowed, the system's Calling
Restrictions are reset, and the remaining digits that the users dial are checked
against the Calling Restrictions.
