Step 5: Adding Accessories

Once you have installed your MERLIN Plus system, you may want to add accessories to enhance its capabilities.

ACCESSORY EQUIPMENT You can connect the headset adapter or the general purpose adapter to the port labeled OTHER on the voice terminal. A headset can be plugged into the headset adapter while the general purpose adapter allows you to connect Touch-Tone (not rotary) equipment, such as modems, autodialers, answering machines and telephone extensions (including cordless telephones) to your voice terminals. See Figure 27.
