Assigning Outward And Toll Call Restrictions 4 - AT&T MERLIN 3070 Administration Manual

Assigning Outward and Toll Call Restrictions
You may want to restrict some voice terminals to intercom or local calls only if, for
example, these employees do not need to make outside or long distance business
calls. You probably also want to restrict any voice terminal located in a public area
such as a lobby. The procedure for assigning different types of call restrictions is
presented below. If you want these restricted voice terminals to have limited addi-
tional calling capacity, follow the procedures for setting up and assigning allowed
lists that are described in the following pages.
In order to restrict voice terminals to local calls only, your system must be able to iden-
tify toll calls as they are dialed. Your lines are automatically set to detect the toll prefix
(0 or 1) used in most parts of the country when people dial a long distance call. If
you use a toll prefix, you should skip steps 2 through 4 of the procedure below. These
extra steps are needed to allow systems installed in areas where toll prefixes aren't
used to detect long distance calls using area codes alone.
1. If you have not already done so, enter administration mode by follow-
ing the boxed instructions on page 28.
If you dial 0 or 1 before dialing a long distance call, go to
step 5.
If you do not dial 0 or 1 before dialing a long distance call, go to
step 2.
2. Touch Call Rstr.
The lights next to the administration mode buttons stop flashing, and the
green light next to Call Rstr becomes steady.
3. Green lights next to rach line button show whether a toll prefix is
required to detect a long distance call placed on this line. Touch each
line button until the light beside it shows the appropriate code. Each
successive touch gives you one of the following codes:
Steady green light on = toll prefix is needed to detect a long distance
Green light off = system detects long distance call by area
4. Touch Call Rstr,
The lights next to the administration mode buttons flash again.
5. Touch Adm TeI.
The lights next to the administration mode buttons stop flashing, and the
green light next to Adm Tel becomes steady.
6. Dial the intercom number or touch the Auto Intercom button for the voice
terminal you want to restrict.
If the voice terminal is idle, a steady green light comes on next to the Auto
Intercom button, and the system gives a 2-beep signal for you to begin.
If the voice terminal is being used, green lights next to the Auto Inter-
com button and Adm Tel flash rapidly. Wait until the green lights becomes
steady, or try again later.
