HotLine 3
A HotLine extension must be on the local system. However, a HotLine telephone
can dial a non-local extension number.
Labeling 3
For incoming calls, the alphanumeric label and/or extension number for non-local
dial plan extensions appears on local system MLX displays according to display
preference programming. This feature works only when PRI tandem trunks
convey the calls.
When operators make intersystem calls, you should relabel the default
23(5$75
label to distinguish operators in different systems.
The system supports the display of DEFINITY ECS or DEFINITY ProLogix
Solutions extension labels, although long DEFINITY ECS or DEFINITY ProLogix
Solutions labels may be truncated on MERLIN LEGEND Communications System
MLX displays, which support a maximum of 7 characters for name labels and 7
characters for extension number labels.
Messaging 3
Leave Word Calling only works only if the calling extension, called extension, and
covering voice mail for the called extension are on the same system. For 6.1 and
later systems, when a centralized VMS is located on a remote system from the
calling extension and called extension, incorrect confirmation messages and no
error tones may indicate that Leave Word Calling succeeded but no message is
sent to the called extension.
An operator cannot turn a message light at a non-local extension off or on and
cannot inspect the message status of a non-local extension. Send/Remove
Message is not supported for non-local dial plan extensions.
Posted Messages do not appear at the display telephones of non-local
extensions.
Fax message-waiting is not supported for non-local extensions.
For MLX display telephones, the Return Call option from the Messages menu
cannot be used to return calls to non-local extensions.
