Greetings. Is it possible to insert digits in the ARS table in order to translate 11 to 911? The users want to be able to reach 911 by dialing both 9+ 911 and 9+11. We are using a Merlin Magix 2.0
 
You already have that feature built into the Magix starting with R1.5, called "Allow-11". If a user dials "911" OR "9-911" the system will grab a trunk and dial 911

Tables->ARS->More->E911->Allow 11->[Select "Enable" or "Disable"]->Enter

will get you there.

You may have instances where users want to dial a long distance number, dial 9 for the ARS, and "fat-finger" the 1 before the area code, accidently calling 911. Make sure they know to stay on the line and apologise to the 911 operator!

 
I'd like to ask the same question - but for legend 7.0
