video applications. Release 4.0 supports the IOC Package "S" (basic call
handling) service configuration and Multi-Line Hunt service configuration on
designated CO switches.
Support for 2B Data applications
Release 4.0 has certified group and desktop video applications that use two
B-channels to make video/data calls from endpoints (stations) that are enabled to
use 2B Data. The endpoints that support these applications connect to an
MLX-port on the MERLIN LEGEND system. 2B Data applications can make use
of the NI-1 BRI, PRI, or T1 Switched 56 network interfaces to make outside
connections using one or two data channels at a time.
Support for T1 digital data transmission
Release 4.0 expands its T1 functionality by providing access to digital data over
the public switched 56 kbps network in addition to data Tie-Trunk services. Users
who have T1 facilities for voice services can now use them for video calls at data
rates of 56 kbps per channel (112 kbps for video calls using two channels). The
Release 4.0 T1 offering also includes point-to-point connectivity over T1
Tie-trunks, allowing customers to connect two MERLIN LEGEND
Communications Systems or a MERLIN LEGEND Communications System with a
DEFINITY Communications System. The two communications systems can be
co-located or off-premises.
Downloadable Firmware for 016 T/R board and NI-BRI board
The Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA)
technology introduced in Release 3.0 continues to support these two new boards
in Release 4.0 for installation and upgrade. A Release 3.0 or later processor is
required for PCMCIA technology.
User Features
Delayed Call Forwarding
Each user can program a Forwarding Delay setting for the Forward, Remote Call
Forwarding, or Follow Me features. The forwarding delay is the number of times
that a call rings at the forwarding extension before the call is sent to the receiver.
During the delay period, the user can screen calls by checking the displayed
calling number (if it is available). The delay can be set at 0 to 9 rings. The factory
setting for Forwarding Delay is 0 rings (no delay).
Voice Announce on the QCC
The QCC operator can enable the fifth Call Button to announce a call on another
user's speakerphone if the destination telephone has a Voice Announce capable
SA button available. A QCC cannot receive Voice Announce calls; they are
received as ringing calls. The factory-set status for the fifth Call Button is to have
Voice Announce disabled.
