5-162 MERLIN Plus System Features
When someone in the MERLIN Plus system transfers a call and it is not
answered, the call returns to the sender. When the system is first installed, it is
set to return calls after four rings. The system administrator can change that
setting so that calls ring as many as nine times before they return to the person
who has transferred it. The administrator may also choose to set the system not
to return transferred calls at all.
If you are using the Direct Extension Dialing (DXD) feature with your
MERLIN Plus system, you may want to consider setting a Transfer Return
Interval. For more information, see "Direct Extension Dialing" in this section.
If your responsibilities do not include system administration, skip this
information.
