The Program key is automatically assigned to Meridian Modular Telephones
with Display or MPDA added. It allows you to change a variety of display
features such as screen format, contrast and language. It also lets you change
data parameters such as transmission speed and parity.
The upper right-hand key (key 05 on M2006, key 07 on all others)
automatically becomes the Program key when Display, MCA, or MPDA is
configured with the telephone. The Program key is local to the set and shows
blank when you print key assignments in LD 20.

The External Alerter Board provides an interface to standard remote ringing
devices, such as a ringing unit installed in a location separate from the
telephone. The Meridian External Alerter and Recording Interface (MEARI)
is not the remote ringer itself, but provides access to standard, off-the-shelf
remote ringing devices. The Alerter Board requires additional power (see
"Power requirements" on
You can program the MEARI to activate a ringer (or light) when the
telephone rings or when the telephone is in use (off-hook). A call to any DN
configured on the telephone triggers the alerter. The MEARI alerts to one
active call at a time; if the telephone is already active on a call, a second call
will not activate MEARI.
For more information on installing and setting up MEARI, see "External
Alerter Board" on page
