MERLIN LEGEND Communications System Release 7.0
Feature Reference 555-670-110
Features
Recall/Timed Flash
Single-Line Telephones
A single-line telephone user without a Recall or Flash button must use the
switchhook to send a timed flash. The communications system intercepts the
signal; if it is to be sent on to a host switch, the system sends a signal of the
duration programmed for the Recall timer.
In Hybrid/PBX or Key mode, a Recall signal from a single-line telephone accesses
the communications system's Hold, Conference, and Transfer features.
In Behind Switch mode, a Recall signal from a single-line telephone is ordinarily
sent to the host switch because the factory setting for the ALS sequence selects
the prime line. If the call is on an Intercom button, the MERLIN LEGEND's Flash
processing interprets flashes as Recall button presses. The current call is
dropped from the telephone, and a new dial tone is applied.

If a single-line telephone with a timed or positive disconnect is used,
pressing the switchhook disconnects the call. With this type of
telephone, the Recall or Flash button must be used instead of the
switchhook for features that require a switchhook flash.
A single-line telephone user without a Recall or Flash button, or with
buttons that activate telephone-only features, must press and release
the switchhook to send a timed flash.
A single-line telephone user who has a 2500 YMGL or 8110M telephone
with positive disconnect on cannot press the switchhook to activate
features. The user must press the Hold button or the Flash button to
activate a feature. (The 8100M telephone must have positive disconnect
programmed on the telephone as described in its manual.)
If Recall is used on a personal line or Pool button—or, in Release 2.0 and
later systems, on an SA or ICOM button—to access an outside loop-start
line, the accessed line is kept, the user hears outside dial tone, and
calling restrictions are reapplied.
The Conf button is used to enter the Flash special character, which
simulates pressing the Recall button, in a telephone number programmed
on an Auto Dial button.
If Recall is used during an inside call made on an Auto Dial button, the
call is disconnected and the user hears inside dial tone.
