Installing Applications

The system may need more touch-tone receivers in the following cases:

Single-line telephone users do not get dial tone

MERLIN Attendant fails to transfer calls

Calls fail to ring or calls go to coverage-prematurely

When the Attendant is set up for both daytime and after-hours operation, the time on each Attendant’s clock must match the MERLIN LEGEND Communications system clock so the end of the business day is recognized.

Hardware Requirements

012 basic telephone module

NOTE:

You can use up to four ports on an 012 basic telephone module for MERLIN Attendants.

When using four ports, you can use up to two additional ports for single-line telephones, another additional port for a fax machine, and one more additional port for a remote maintenance device, such as a modem.

When using one, two, or three ports, you can use up to three additional ports for single-line telephones, another additional port for a fax machine, and one more additional port for a remote maintenance device, such as a modem.

MERLIN Attendant unit and cords

Some AC power strips may be needed since the Attendant is powered by wall-mounted transformers (10 VAC).

Powering and grounding procedures must follow those established for T/R telephones that require auxiliary power.
