Automatic Route Selection - AT&T Merlin 1030 User Manual

NOTE: Ask your system administrator if your system has
Automatic Route Selection (ARS). If it does, follow the procedure
for making outside calls in the next section, "Automatic Route
Selection." Neither of the above procedures works for you if your
system has ARS.

Automatic Route Selection

If you have Pool Access buttons, your MERLIN system may
have Automatic Route Selection (ARS). Ask your system admin-
istrator if your system has ARS.
ARS automatically selects an administered route for each out-
side call you make using a Pool Access button. For example,
if you touch Pool Access and dial a long distance number, ARS
may select WATS as the route for your call. In this case, ARS
automatically routes your call onto a WATS line.
To place an outside call using ARS:
Touch a Pool Access button.
This signals ARS to expect an outside call.
Lift your handset.
Dial the outside telephone number you want.
You hear beeps instead of Touch-Tones or rotary clicks as you dial.
Wait a few moments.
If you hear a faster busy signal than normal:
Touch the same Pool Access button you used to begin your
call.
