USING SPECIAL CHARACTERS IN PROGRAMMED DIALING SEQUENCES
An Outside Auto Dial or Personal Speed Dial code can store up to 16 digits, including
special characters. You use special characters when you need to program an
automatic pause, stop, or switchhook flash (which means briefly depressing the
switchhook) with the number. Before you program a special character into a se-
quence, please read the following information.
If your
MERLIN
system works in combination with a PBX or Centrex system
where you have to dial 9 to get an outside line, or if your system has Dial Ac-
cess to Line Pools, you should program a pause after the 9 or access code in
a programmed dialing sequence.
When you use an alternate long distance service, you program one Outside Auto
Dial button for the special service number and a separate Outside Auto Dial but-
ton for each person you use the service to call.
When using an Outside Auto Dial button or a Personal Speed
Dial code with
a stop, resume the dialing sequence by touching the Outside Auto Dial button
or dialing the Personal
Speed Dial code again.
