Special features
Call Page
The Meridian 1 provides switching access and trunk circuit interface to a customer-supplied speaker
or radio paging equipment. Paging equipment is accessed by dial access or a Page key on attendant
consoles. Telephones cannot be assigned a Page key and must access this feature by dialing.
Attendant consoles using the Page key preempt telephones having only dial access. Telephones
preempted by the attendant are disconnected and must reaccess the paging trunk.
To use the Call Page feature:
1.
Select a free DN key.
2. Speak into the telephone.
3. Hang up the telephone or press R.
Call Page - Network Wide
Prior to Release 22, the Meridian 1 does not support external Paging calls. The Network Call Page
component allows the Paging function to be performed onto a station DN or System Park DN at
another M1 Node within the MCDN NAS Network or the Paging Party.
Call Waiting
If the attendant routes an outside call to you when you are already on a call, Call Waiting lets you put
your current call on hold, allowing you to answer the outside call.
To answer an incoming call during a telephone call:
1.
Press ˙ when you hear a tone and the call waiting indicator flashes during a telephone
call.
2. Press ∆ to answer the incoming call.
To return to your first telephone call:
1.
Press ˙ if you want to put the second call on hold, or R to end the second call.
2. Press the DN key associated with the first call.
To answer an incoming call during a telephone call without the Call Waiting key:

If you don't have a ∆ key and you hear the Call Waiting tone, end your current call and
replace the handset or press
R.
2. When the telephone rings, press the DN key beside the flashing
º to answer the incoming call.
Note: MSL-100 has Autohold feature. The hold key is not required when using call waiting.
