Your MERLIN Communications System was designed to provide you with sophisticated telephone service. Modular and expandable, it can grow as your business needs grow. You can increase the usefulness of your MERLIN system by installing a Type I Feature Cartridge in your Control Unit. If you have such a Feature Cartridge, ignore this document and read the material that came with the cartridge. If you’ve elected to stay with Standard Features for now, this Guide will tell you how they work.

This guide explains Standard Features for three different models—the 206, 410 and 820. They differ in the number of lines and voice terminals (telephones) that can be accommodated.

You can use a variety of different voice terminals with your MERLIN system. All MERLIN voice terminals, available now or offered in the future, will work on your MERLIN system. The same is true of almost

all accessories.
