Placing and Answering Calls
LINE BUTTONS AND LIGHTS
Each call is represented on a separate line button. The lights next to the line buttons tell you what’s happening.
●The red light tells you which line you’re on or will get when you lift the handset. When you touch a line button, the red light goes on next to that line.
●The green lights tells you if the line is free (no light), busy (steady on), ringing (flashing), or on hold (fast flashing for your held calls, slower flashing for others’ held calls).
DISTINCTlVE RINGING
Calls you receive sound different depending on the type of call it is: intercom (beep), outside call (one long ring), transferred call (one short and one long ring).
PLACING AN OUTSIDE CALL
Just lift the handset and dial. The MERLIN system automatical- |
| |
ly selects a free line for you. You can select a different line by | + | |
touching the line button you want. | ||

NOTE: To dial an outside sequence that starts with # (for exam- ple, a Centrex/PBX code), dial ## instead.
