AUXILIARY LINE | The auxiliary jack (the top jack) on each line module bridges and monitors the |
TELEPHONE | outside line connected to the first line jack (the second jack from the top, line |
| A) on the module. If you have a second line module, its auxiliary jack |
| connects to line E, and you can gain access to it with a basic |
| rotary dial telephone. Note the location of the Aux jack in Figure 22. |
| This jack provides many services. |
| ● You can connect accessories, such as a modem, answering machine, or a |
| Fax machine to it and reap the benefits of a dedicated line. |
| ● When the line is not used by any accessory attached to the Aux jack, |
| MERLIN Plus system voice terminal users have access to it. |
| ● The jack can be used as a |
| as part of the MERLIN Plus communications system, but also continues to |
| work after a power failure. |
| NOTE: A MERLIN Plus system voice terminal is not designed for and |
| will not work in the Aux port. |
