When I worked at BNR (R&D for Northern Telecom) I tested the Emergency
Calling Feature on the DMS-250 and Centrex switches for Mercury (UK).
As far as I can remember, there was a log output plus optional MMI
Alarm whenever the emergency code (999 or whatever you programmed) was
dialled, thus giving immediate notification of an emergency call.  Of
course, whether or not this feature is the same for the North American
market and the SL-1 I cannot tell you.
