DESCRIPTION

CONSIDERATIONS

ADMINISTRATION

You can program a button or use a dial code to access this feature.

To dial an outside number:

1 Lift your handset.

2 Touch the System Speed Dial button or dial the appropriate code (#60 through # 99).

As part of basic administration, you must specify whether the system is square, behind-switch, or pooled.

If the system is pooled, you must specify the method used to access line pools: Button Access, Dial Access, or Automatic Route Selection (ARS).

If the system has Button Access to Line Pools, people touch a button to get a line in a pool.

If the system has Dial Access to Line Pools, people touch a Pool Access button and then dial the appropriate line pool code to get a line in a pool.

If the system has Automatic Route Selection (ARS), the system automatically selects an administered route for each outside call that people make using a Pool Access button.

If you change the system type at a later time, you erase all system line administration and voice terminal programming. You will then have to reassign all lines and reprogram all voice terminals.

If you change the system from Button Access to Dial Access to Line Pools, or vice versa, the system automatically assigns a different function to the two buttons above Intercom-Voice.If you change the system to Button Access, the main pool (default Pool 9) is automatically assigned to the two buttons above the Intercom buttons. If the main pool was previously assigned to any other button on that voice terminal, it is automatically removed.

To specify the system type, enter administration mode and follow the appropriate procedure, below.

With a MERLIN II System Display Console

1 From the administration menu, touch [System], [Type].

2 Touch the appropriate button for the preferred type of system:

For a square or pooled system, touch the button for that system

( [Square], ButnAcc], [ARS], [DialAcc] )

For a behind switch system, touch [More], [BehindSw].

message “System is Re-starting” appears, then the administration menu.
