Release 2.0 Enhancements
Refer to
Release 2.0 Notes for detailed descriptions of Release 2.0
and later 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 Solutions 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 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 system-
wide 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. However, you should
not program both individual extensions and a calling group into
the Night Service group because individuals will not have a
chance to answer before calling group members do.
