Special Characters In Outside Auto Dial Sequences - AT&T MERLIN 1030 Attendant's Manual

SPECIAL CHARACTERS IN OUTSIDE AUTO DIAL SEQUENCES

An Outside Auto Dial button can store up to 16 digits. For some types of
calls, however, you need to program a pause, stop, or switchhook flash
with the number. For instance, if your MERLIN system is connected to
a PBX that does not immediately return a dial tone after you dial an out-
side line access code (for example, 9), you must program one or more
pauses after the outside line access code on your Outside Auto Dial but-
ton. Or, when you program an Outside Auto Dial button to dial an alter-
nate long distance service sequence or a credit card authorization code,
you may need to program an automatic stop.
Pause. To program a pause (1.5 seconds) into an auto dialing sequence:
Touch Hold (Pause).
Switchhook Flash. To program a switchhook flash at the beginning of
an auto dialing sequence for PBX/Centrex codes:
Touch Recall.
Touch Hold (Pause).
Stop. To program a stop into an auto dialing sequence:
Touch Drop (Stop).
To use an Outside Auto Dial sequence with a stop in it:
Touch the Outside Auto Dial button.
Wait until the connection is made after the stop.
Touch the button again to resume dialing.
