System Access (ASA)
Automatic System Access (ASA) includes four features that allow more flexible
use of your MERLIN plus system and your outside lines. The features are
described in this section under separate entries:
●

When the system is in CF mode, incoming calls on designated lines are
connected to a Voice Synthesis Processor (VSP) in the control unit for a
message. Meanwhile, the control unit calls the telephone number to which
calls are being forwarded and uses the system’s Conference feature to
connect the incoming call to the outgoing call.
Direct Extension Dialing (DXD)
When you put the system in DXD mode, the control unit connects incoming
calls on designated lines to the VSP for a message. Meanwhile, the caller
dials the extension number (a 2-digit intercom number), and the control unit
transfers the call to that extension.
When the attendant or the alternate attendant activates the System Answer
button, selected incoming calls are answered automatically and placed on
hold. The system administrator can choose to have the caller hear a special
message before being placed on hold or, if connected to a compatible
audio-source, a pre-recorded message or music can be played instead.
When the system is in RLA mode, you can call in from outside and use a
password to gain access to one of the system’s outside lines. You can also
use the RLA feature to change the telephone number to which calls are being
forwarded during CF operation. The VSP prompts you through the necessary
procedures.
If your Central Office (CO) or PBX does not provide a “forward disconnect” on
the serving lines, you must use the Call Forwarding/Remote Line Access
Disconnect Timer to set a disconnect interval for CF and RLA.
All lines in the system must be assigned to the ASA port.
Refer to the individual features in this section for specific considerations for
each feature. ASA features work differently when used in conjunction with the
MERLIN Attendant.
