Release 2.1 Enhancements (August, 1994)
Refer to Release 2.1 Notes for detailed descriptions of Release 2.1
enhancements. Release 2.1 includes all Release 2.0 functionality
plus the enhancements listed below.
Operational
System operational enhancements include the following:
■ When a call is forwarded to a multiline telephone that has an
Auto Dial or DSS button programmed for the forwarding
telephone, the green light next to the Auto Dial or DSS button
for the forwarding telephone does not flash.
■ People answering calls received on Cover buttons are allowed
to generate touch tones if their telephones are not outward- or
toll-restricted.
■ Calls received on personal lines with Do Not Disturb on go
immediately to coverage instead of waiting for the coverage
delay interval.
■ A call put on hold at a Cover button can be added to a
conference by someone who has a personal line for the call.
■ A call put on hold at a Cover button can be picked up by any
person who has a personal line for the call.
■ Calls that have been put on hold at a Cover, SA, Shared SA, or
Pool button can be picked up by a person who has a personal
line button for the call.
■ An inside call on hold at an SA button can be picked up and
transferred by any person with a Shared SA button
corresponding to the button with the held call.
■ Calls that are on hold awaiting transfer can be picked up by any
user who has a personal line for the call.
■ Beginning with Integrated Solution III Version 1.2, the automatic
reconciliation program that was run automatically at 3:00 a.m.
has been disabled and can be invoked manually from the User
Maintenance menu.
■ When a telephone is programmed for Forced Account Code
entry, account codes do not have to be entered when using a
programmed Loudspeaker Paging button. In addition, an SMDR
record is not generated for calls made to paging ports.
■ When an MLX telephone, other than an MLX-20L, is plugged
into an MLX port and the Personal Directory does not contain
any entries, the allocation of the Personal Directory resources is
released. If there are any entries in the Personal Directory, the
Personal Directory allocation and the entries in the Personal
Directory are saved in the MLX port.
■ SMDR call records for calls made on PRI facilities are more
accurate than SMDR call records for calls made on non-PRI
facilities. Outgoing calls made on PRI facilities receive “answer
supervision.” Consequently, SMDR timing for calls made on PRI
facilities begins when the call is answered. Timing for calls
made on non-PRI facilities begins when dialing is completed.
Therefore, an SMDR call record is not generated when a call
made on a PRI facility is not answered at the far end.
■ The Call Type field and the Called Number field on the SMDR
report have been changed for both the Basic and ISDN report
formats.
