Nortel Networks 7400 - Manual (Page 157)

MIRAN supports the following applications:
• First recorded announcement
• Second recorded announcement
• Intercept treatment
• Music on hold
• Automatic wake-up for the
hospitality market
MIRAN supports both Continuous and Start/Stop
modes of playback. Immediate Continuous mode
allows recordings to constantly play as callers “barge
in” on the playback. Delay Dial Continuous mode
initiates a ring back tone to callers until the
recording begins again. Start/Stop modes reset the
recording to its beginning position when a call is
terminated. All MIRAN channels are totally
independent and it is possible for each channel to
play different parts of a recording at the same time.
MIRAN is pre-configured with 24 minutes of voice
memory storage and 6 minutes of royalty-free
music for music-on-hold application.
For flexibility, each MIRAN card can be configured
for 1 of 3 port channel (port) configurations:
Small (2 channels), Medium (4 channels) or Large
(8 channels). If traffic requirements increase, the
port capacity of the Small and Medium cards can be
quickly and easily expanded to the higher
configurations with a software keycode that
activates the additional channels.
To accommodate traffic requirements beyond the 8-
channel capacity, up to 16 MIRAN cards can be linked
together in a daisy chain and managed from a single
terminal. As many MIRAN cards as required can be
supported by Meridian 1, limited only by the number
of IPE slots available in the system.
