HOW TO l&E
To bridge onto a call in progress:
1 Touch the line button associated with the call.
2 Touch Speakerphone or lift your handset.
If a person has activated the Privacy feature on his or her voice terminal, you
cannot bridge onto a call in progress at that voice terminal. (See “Privacy.“)
DESCRIPTION
The Busy Buster feature automatically redials at least ten times the most
recent number you dialed. If the called telephone begins to ring within this
time, your voice terminal alerts you. To use this feature, the system
administrator must have assigned the feature to a voice terminal jack on the
control unit, a connection must have been made from that voice terminal jack
to the BB jack on the memory module, and a button must be programmed at
each applicable voice terminal.
CONSIDERATIONS
The Busy Buster feature is shared by everyone in the MERLIN Plus system.
When you and other people in your’ system use this feature at the same time,
the system places the telephone number each person has dialed in a queue.
The system then dials each number in the queue.
The system redials the call on the same line on which the call was placed. If
you use a stop character in the dialing sequence of a System Speed Dial
number, you cannot use Busy Buster to retry the number for you.
Each person in the system can have only one Busy Buster number active at a
time.
If you or someone else places or accepts another call on a voice terminal that
has activated Busy Buster, the system will continue to try to complete the call,
even though your voice terminal is in use. When the BB call goes through,
the voice terminal will alert you with an abbreviated ring even if you’re on
another call.
If you are using an SP-34 or an SP-34D voice terminal, Busy Buster can only
be programmed onto one of the two rows of buttons above the dial pad.
Occasionally when Busy Buster is, activated the voice terminal rings even
when the call was not connected. This is due to noisy Central Office lines
that can provide false indications to the MERLIN Plus system.
