System Speed Dial
DESCRIPTION
CONSIDERATIONS
5-150 MERLIN Plus System Features
The administrator can store System Speed Dial codes for telephone numbers,
such as a warehouse number or a branch office number, and account numbers
that people in the office frequently use. People can then dial the number simply
by dialing the proper Speed Dial code. Your MERLIN Plus system can store up
to 130 System Speed Dial numbers. System Speed Dial is particularly useful
when the administrator wants to give users access to a specific number, for
instance, an authorization code for an alternate long-distance service, but does
not want to divulge the number.
For more information about assigning a System Speed Dial code to account
numbers that the administrator wants to appear on call reports, see
"Account Number Entry."
You can program a System Speed Dial code for an area code and an exchange.
Then when you want to dial a telephone number that begins with this area code
and exchange, you can dial the Speed Dial code or touch the button programmed
for the Speed Dial code, and then dial the remainder of the telephone number or
use another Speed Dial code. The MERLIN Plus system can hold a maximum of
130 System Speed Dial codes of up to 16 digits each.
If you want to program a System Speed Dial code for an
IMPORTANT:
emergency number such as police or fire departments, the FCC
requires that you test that the number was programmed correctly
only during off-peak hours.
The system administrator can assign System Speed Dial codes to telephone
numbers with or without Restriction Override.
If the administrator decides to store a System Speed Dial code with
Restriction Override, all voice terminals in the system can use the code as a
type of password that allows the person to access the outside number,
regardless of Disallowed List, toll or outward call restrictions previously
placed on the voice terminal.
The administrator may decide to store a System Speed Dial code without
Restriction Override so that the Disallowed List, and all toll or outward
restrictions placed on voice terminals continue to apply.
For System Speed Dial codes assigned to telephone numbers,
the administrator can specify which Speed Dial codes will be printed on call
reports (see "Call Report"), which codes will be displayed on display sets, and
which ones will be private.
