Hold
Recall
Remote Access
SMDR
Transfer
Calls on BRI lines can be part of a conference call processed by the
MERLIN LEGEND Communications System, not by the central office
(CO). The MERLIN LEGEND Communications System determines the
number of active parties on the call.
The MERLIN LEGEND Communications System supports up to five
people on a conference: two within the system, two outside the system,
and the call originator.
If a MERLIN LEGEND Communications System user is part of a
conference established by an outside party through the central office
conference feature, the MERLIN LEGEND Communications System may
play Music On Hold (if so programmed) when the MERLIN LEGEND
Communications System user puts the call on hold.
An active call on a BRI line can be placed on hold by using the MERLIN
LEGEND Communications System Hold feature. All call appearances
(such as LEDs) are the same as for other non-BRI lines.
Recall is not recognized by the central office (CO) on BRI lines.
Therefore, the CO ignores the press of a telephone's Recall button.
A BRI line may be used for remote access.
The number of a BRI line is shown in the LINE field of the SMDR report.
Outgoing call timing begins when a call is answered. Therefore, calls that
are not answered at the far end are not reported.
In Release 4.1 and prior systems, call timing for incoming calls begins
when the call is answered. In Release 4.2 and later systems with the Talk
Time option enabled, timing for incoming calls to Auto Login or Auto
Logout calling groups begins when the system detects the call.
Calls on BRI lines are available for the system Transfer feature. The
central office-based transfer feature is not supported by the MERLIN
LEGEND Communications System.
