Installing Applications
■ The trunks that are to be answered by MERLIN MAIL should be
programmed for reliable far-end disconnect.
■ Callers who dial from rotary telephones cannot use the features of the
MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System.
■ The system may need more touch-tone receivers in the following
cases:
— Single-line telephone users do not get dial tone
— MERLIN MAIL fails to transfer calls
— Calls fail to ring or calls go to coverage prematurely
— Message Waiting lights fail to light
■ The MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System and the
MERLIN Attendant should not be used on the same system.
■ Programming of the MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System is done
via a touch-tone interface.
The MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System has an EIA-232-D serial
port and an external modem to support remote diagnostics.
■ The first four logical IDs on an 008 OPT module cannot be used to
physically connect telephone equipment; however, the extension
numbers of these logical IDs may be used for “Phantom extensions.”
