Regular telephone
The Meridian 1* is designed to provide
flexible use of business telephones. It
is capable of a number of
sophisticated operations such as
setting up conference calls, allowing
you to answer someone else’s calls,
or even notifying you when a number
you have tried is no longer busy.
Some of the features have been
assigned to your phone. The features
on your telephone have been selected
to reflect your specific telephone
needs. If you want to have some
features removed or others added,
contact your System Administrator.
