Key To Symbols
The following symbols are used throughout this document to illustrate the steps for using your MERLIN communications system
attendant console. After you are familiar with the steps, the symbols should serve as a quick reminder. (Buttons are shaded and
labeled to look like the actual buttons on your console. A shaded light indicates that it is lit.)
