General Procedures for Administration and Programming

ENTERING AND LEAVING ADMINISTRATION MODE

To perform system administration or to program a voice terminal, you must take the administrator/attendant console or the voice terminal out of regular call-handling mode. The console or voice terminal can’t be used to place or receive calls while in administration or programming mode.

The procedures for putting the administrator/attendant console into and out of administration mode and for putting a voice terminal into and out of programming mode appear below.

NOTE: The planning forms for the system show line and feature assignments. If you are administering a new feature, keep the appropriate planning form handy as a guide. If you’re changing an existing feature, be sure to change the form as well.

If you have a MERLIN II System Display Console, you place an overlay on the console when you are performing administration. This overlay, packaged with the console, shows the functions of the buttons when the console is in administration mode.

NOTE: The overlay may have been placed in the specially-made labeled pocket folder of the MERLIN II lnstallation and Administration Manual when the system was unpacked and installed.

Place the overlay on the console before you enter administration mode and remove it when you leave administration mode.
