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

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.
