Installing Adjuncts

If you connect a credit card verification terminal to an MFM, the terminal can place and receive calls independently of the MLX telephone.

Do not use a GPA to connect a credit card verification terminal to the system, because the terminal cannot dial out through the GPA.

Headsets

Headsets are designed for hands-free telephone use and consist of several components, depending upon whether manual or one-touch operation is used. Any AT&T headpiece works in either mode.

Headpieces

Six different headpieces are available. Each is light, comfortable, and uses a transparent voice tube to eliminate a cumbersome large microphone. Each comes with a 10-ft. (305-cm) coiled cord and a quick-disconnect latch.

Mirage® . This is a small, almost unnoticeable, monaural headset that uses a disk-shaped receiver. It can be worn on either ear, instead of a headband or ear tip. This headset is not useful in noisy environments.

StarSet® . This monaural headset is worn without a headband. It uses a soft, pliable ear tip that provides high-quality sound yet allows you to hear other conversations or instructions in the workplace.

Supra® Monaural. This monaural headset has an adjustable headband. It offers a soft, comfortable ear cushion that reduces surrounding noise, making it easier to understand the caller.

Supra Monaural Noise-Canceling (NC). Same as above with noise- canceling microphone to reduce background noise by up to 75 percent.

Supra Binaural. Sound in both ears with soft ear cushion and adjustable headband.

Supra Binaural Noise-Canceling (NC). Same as above with noise- canceling microphone on flexible boom features windscreen and reduces background noise transmission by up to 75 percent.
