Release 2.0 Enhancements (October 1992)
— Enhancements to display prompts include automatic posting
of a Do Not Disturb message (for MLX display telephones or

be programmed for the Do Not Disturb message to be posted
automatically) when a user activates the Do Not Disturb
feature, and confirmation messages when a user activates
Hold, Privacy, Saved Number Dial, and Transfer.
— Direct Inward Dialing (DID) trunk emulation on a T1 facility
provides up to 24 DID channels on a single DS1 interface,
instead of requiring 24 separate physical trunks.
— A telephone user can send a timed flash (switchhook flash)
on a loop-start trunk call on a System Access (SA) button.
■ Fax Attendant System™
Fax Attendant is an application for sending and receiving fax
messages; its interface is similar to the voice mail interface
provided by AUDIX Voice Power. Fax Attendant System, which

— Fax Call Coverage. Receives and holds messages for
subscribers whose fax machines are busy or out of paper.
This service also allows a subscriber to have a personal fax
number without having a fax machine.

distribution lists, send and receive fax messages, and record
personal greetings for incoming fax calls.

from a customer-created menu of choices, using touch-tone
responses.
