Release 2.0 Notes
for detailed descriptions of Release 2.0
enhancements. Release 2.0 includes all Release 1.1 functionality
plus the enhancements listed below.
■ Programming
Programming enhancements include the following:
— Extension Copy is a feature that reduces programming time
by allowing the use of any extension as a template for
programming another extension or block of extensions
through centralized telephone programming.
— Integrated Administration provides a single interface through
Integrated Solution III (IS III) for programming entries
common to the MERLIN LEGEND Communications System
and AUDIX™ Voice Power.
— Any SPM Version 2.xx (where xx is replaced by numbers)
provides a Convert function for use in upgrading the system
from Release 1.0 or 1.1. This function converts a backup file
from a Release 1.0 or 1.1 system to Release 2.0 and later
format, allowing reuse of existing system programming on
the upgraded system.
— Forced idle reductions keep system interruptions at a
minimum. In general, the smallest necessary component is
forced idle during programming activities. For example,
renumbering a single extension idles only one extension.
Only a few systemwide programming activities, such as
setting the system mode and system renumbering, idle the
entire system.
■ Operational
— System operational enhancements include the following:
— Coverage VMS Off is a feature that prevents incoming
outside calls from going to voice mail. (All other coverage
remains active as programmed.) The feature is programmed
extension by extension, either through extension
programming or through centralized telephone programming.
— A Night Service group can be programmed to include either
extensions or a calling group as members. You should not
program both individual extensions and a calling group into
the Night Service group, however, because individuals will
not have a chance to answer before calling group members
do.
— When AUDIX Voice Power sends a Leave Message
notification to an extension, the system identifies the voice
mail system as the sender of the message. When the voice
mail subscriber uses the Return Call feature, the call goes to
any available voice mail port, not just to the specific port that
generated the message. This reduces the chance of getting
a busy port.
— Coverage receivers can call coverage senders and have the
call receive coverage treatment. If a receiver calls a sender
for whom he or she is covering, and the sender is busy or
unavailable, the call proceeds to other points of coverage. It
does not come back to the receiver who originated the call.
