●Basic Telephone and Modem Interface 2 (BTMI-2).
The BTMI-2 is a replacement for the BTMI. It connects telephones and data communications devices such as autodialers, answering machines, cordless telephones, facsimile machines, and modems to the MERLIN II system. A timer may be connected to a BTMI-2 for automatic answering based on time of day.
Unlike the BTMI, the BTMI-2 does not support Conference, Drop, or line selection features. It can be used with MERLIN II systems with Feature Module 1, Feature Module 2, and Release 3.
●Basic Telephones. Basic Touch-Tone telephones, connected to the MERLIN system with the Off- Premises Telephone Interface (OPTI) and to outside telephone lines, provide service to people at a remote location. On-premises Basic Touch-Tone telephones can be connected to the system with a Basic Telephone and Modem Interface 2 or a Basic Telephone Module.
●Frequency Generator. If your basic carrier or expansion carrier has a Basic Telephone (012) Module, you must connect a Frequency Generator to the Power Supply Module, located in the first slot of each carrier containing Basic Telephone Modules.
The Frequency Generator converts 117-volt, 60-Hz input power to 105-vol~ 30-Hz ringing voltage for basic telephones connected to the Basic Telephone Module.
●General Purpose Adapter (GPA). Permits
connection of accessories such a modem with PCs or data terminals, cordless telephones, and autodialers to a MERLIN II system voice terminal. To use this
accessory, you must program Auto Answer AU. The GPA is for use with all analog voice terminals except 5-button and 10-button HFAI.
