Kari’s Law applies to multi-line telephone systems (MLTS), which are telephone systems often used by
office buildings, campuses, and hotels.
Kari’s Law requires MLTS that are manufactured, imported, offered for
first sale or lease, first sold or leased, or installed after February 16, 2020 to enable users to dial 911 directly,
without having to dial a prefix to reach an outside line, and to provide for notification (e.g., to a front desk or
security office) when a 911 call is made.
Since the Merlin Magic 1.0 was released the previous century you do not have to worry about the legal ramifications regarding non-compliance.
