MERLIN LEGEND Communications System Release 7.0
Feature Reference 555-670-110
Features
Auto Answer All
Considerations and Constraints
When Auto Answer All is used, all voice announcements (including Voice
Announce) should be disabled because the device connected to the GPA cannot
answer voice-announced calls.
Auto Answer All cannot be used with a Hands-Free Unit (HFU).
Occasionally a second alert (or zip) tone may sound on incoming or intercom
calls. This is normal.
Auto Answer All should be used instead of Auto Answer Intercom to allow an
answering device to answer intercom calls. Auto Answer Intercom can cause
intercom calls to be dropped.
Telephone Differences
Queued Call Consoles
Auto Answer All cannot be used on a QCC.
Other Multiline Telephones
Auto Answer All cannot be used on MLX telephones, cordless telephones, or
wireless telephones.
Single-Line Telephones
Auto Answer All cannot be used on single-line telephones. This includes
single-line telephones with speakerphones.
Some single-line telephones (such as the 8110) have their own telephone-based
Auto Answer feature, which can be used with a Release 4.0 or later MERLIN
LEGEND Communications System.
Feature Interactions
Auto Answer
Intercom
Auto Dial
Both Auto Answer All and Auto Answer Intercom can be programmed
on the same extension, but they cannot be used at the same time.
Auto Answer Intercom should not be used with answering devices.
At an analog multiline telephone with a GPA connected and set for
Auto operation, you must lift the handset before pressing an Auto Dial
button. Do not use the Spkrphone button.
