By using the procedures earlier in this book, you should have already reserved the following:

Trunk jacks for outside lines/trunks

Extension jacks for voice telephone users

Extension jacks for either:

Analog multiline telephones with a modem data station connected to a General-Purpose Adapter (GPA)

MLX telephones with either a modem data station connected using an MFM or a digital data station connected using an ISDN terminal adapter

Digital data/video equipment (such as G4 FAX, and personal or group video systems) connected either directly to an MLX port or connected to an MLX port by way of an ISDN terminal adapter

Forms Needed

Whether you are planning data options for a new system or modifying an existing system, you record data communications planning information by making additional entries on forms already completed earlier in this book, and on the appropriate data forms shown in Table 5–2. Duplicate the master data forms in Appendix C, “Data Forms,” and work on the copies. Use the forms listed in Table 5–3, as needed. See application note, MERLIN LEGEND Communications System Modem Pooling, for details.

NOTE:

Behind Switch mode is not included in these instructions. It works the same way as Key mode.
