Description

Centrex is an optional telephone service that business customers can obtain from
telephone companies. A Centrex line/trunk provides access to telephone features
similar to those available from a PBX switch located on the customer’s premises.
Basic Centrex features often include the following:
■
Transfer
■
Three-way conference
■
Drop
■
Hold
■
Recall
■
Call forwarding
■
Call waiting
■
Call pickup
■
Group pickup
■
Automatic callback
NOTE:
The term
communications system
here refers to the MERLIN LEGEND
Communications System, as distinguished from the Centrex system
provided by the central office.
Additional features, such as speed dialing and night service, may also be
available from some telephone companies. Centrex features other than those
specifically discussed in this section are accessed by sending a switchhook flash
and dialing the appropriate feature code. These codes are not intercepted or
interpreted by the communications system.
