Executives. Executives use the Do Not Disturb feature to prevent calls
from ringing for meetings and conferences. They also use the Authorization
Codes feature for calling from any extension using their own calling
privileges. Executives use MLX-16DP telephones. (See below for a

■
Executive Secretaries. General calls come in for executives on emulated
DID lines/trunks. Personal calls for executives come in on their own
personal lines, which the operator/receptionist does not answer. The
system’s Shared System Access (SSA) buttons allow the secretaries to
answer these lines. The bosses’ SA lines do not ring. The system’s Notify
feature allows them to visually alert their bosses when a caller is waiting.
When the callers request it, the secretaries can transfer them to voice mail
using the Direct Voice Mail feature. When a secretary is unavailable, she
uses either the voice messaging system (after hours) or another secretary
as backup. Each secretary has SSA buttons for each executive; calls for a
secretary’s own boss ring immediately; calls for another executive ring after
a delay. When calls on SSA buttons are forwarded to voice mail, they go to
the managers’ mailboxes. Secretaries use MLX-20L telephones so that
they can easily dial for their bosses.

System Manager. The system manager manages one remote system and
one on-site system. For security reasons, the system manager uses

MLX-20L telephone and uses SPM for the on-site and remote systems.
The system manager has a dedicated modem to ensure immediate access
to the remote system; her PC is directly connected to the on-site system.

To help with her own assessments of facilities usage, the system manager
uses the system’s MERLIN LEGEND Reporter application. Working closely
