Intercom 10

 

 

By design, the intercom 10 position is the primary call-handling position in

 

 

 

the system, and it is also the system administration point. You must,

 

 

 

therefore, assign intercom number 10 to the voice terminal at the system

 

 

 

attendant's location. For easy system administration, the voice terminal

 

 

 

assigned intercom 10 should be a 34-button deluxe model, but a 10-button

 

 

 

model will also work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Under "Voice Terminals" . . .

 

 

 

Write in the name of the system attendant and the attendant's location on

 

 

 

the line next to number 10.

Intercom 19

 

 

 

 

 

Notice that "Call Report" appears in parentheses in the "Name" column next

 

 

 

to intercom 19 on the form. If your system has the Call Report option, the

 

 

 

system automatically reserves the intercom 19 position for the data collector

 

 

 

and printer required to print call reports. You can designate an intercom

 

 

 

number other than 19 for the Call Report equipment when you administer the

 

 

 

system, but you cannot assign both the Call Report equipment and a voice

 

 

 

terminal the same intercom number. (For more information on the Call

 

 

 

Report option and equipment, see "Administer the Call Report Option" under

 

 

 

"Systemwide Options" in Section 3, "Administering the System," and also

 

 

 

the "Call Report" entry in Section 5, "Reference.")

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Under "Voice Terminals" . . .

 

 

 

Do not write in a name next to intercom number 19 if your system has the

 

 

 

Call Report option (unless you plan to assign an intercom number other

 

 

 

than 19 to the Call Report equipment when you administer the system.)

 

 

 

Cross out "(Call Report)" next to intercom 19 if your system does not have

 

 

 

the Call Report option, and treat intercom 19 just like any other intercom

 

 

 

number as you assign intercom numbers below.

Intercoms 11 through 29

 

 

 

 

To simplify system administration, you should assign consecutive intercom

 

numbers beginning with 11 to the remaining voice terminals in your system.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Under "Voice Terminals" . . .

 

 

 

Write in the names of the people to be assigned voice terminals and their

 

 

 

work locations next to the remaining intercom numbers.

PAGING GROUPS

 

 

 

The MERLIN Plus system lets you page the people in your business through

 

the speakers on their voice terminals. You don't need an external paging

 

system for this feature.

 

The system automatically assigns all voice terminals to a single paging group,

 

called the Page-All Group. You can't change the makeup of the Page-All

 

Group. (See the "Group Page" entry in Section 5, "Reference," for more

 

information on the Page-All feature.)
