DESCRIPTION
You can use your voice terminal Transfer button to transfer outside calls to
someone else in your MERLIN Plus system.

HOW TO USE
Option A—Simple Transfer You can ask the person to whom you are
transferring the call if he or she wants to accept the call.
Option B—One-Touch Transfer If you have an Auto Intercom button
for the person to whom you want to transfer a call, you can transfer a
call with one touch.
Option C—Direct Transfer You can transfer a call directly by dialing
the intercom number.
If no one answers the transferred call, the call returns to the sender after a
specified number of rings set by the system administrator. The administrator
may also choose to set the system not to return calls. (See "Transfer Return
Interval.")
If the person to whom you are transferring the call has activated the Voice
Announcement Disable feature or if the person is using the intercom line at
his or her voice terminal, you cannot announce the call.
