Notes On Programming And Using Economy Attendant Consoles 1 2 - AT&T MERLIN 3070 Administration Manual

• A loudspeaker paging system or the Group Page feature makes it easy for an
attendant to announce calls to people who are not always at the same location.
You can set up the system so the attendant can page separate zones in-
dependently. For example, a paging system in a medical group shared by several
doctors could be set up with one zone covering only those locations specific
to a particular doctor, such as a consulting office, lab, and examining room.
Similarly, the voice terminals in those same areas could makeup a "group" for
Group Page. Then, when a call comes in, the attendant can park the call and
page the person the call is for without bothering anyone else.
You may want to change an attendant console to a nonattendant console if you
need an additional voice terminal. Switches B through E on the Processor
Module of the control unit represent attendant consoles with intercom numbers
11 through 14. To change the console's function, set the appropriate switch to
Normal (up). Turn the power off and then on again, and administer the console
as you would any nonattendant voice terminal.
Be aware that when you change the setting of one of these
IMPORTANT
switches, you erase all system line administration and voice terminal program-
ming that is now in place for that voice terminal.
NOTES ON PROGRAMMING AND USING ECONOMY ATTENDANT CONSOLES
. Auto Intercom buttons can be programmed on the economy attendant console
for the attendant's use, although they won't function as Auto Intercom buttons
if the console is put into administration mode.
. If your total number of lines and voice terminals doesn't exceed 30, the atten-
dant can have an Auto Intercom button for each voice terminal in your system.
. If your total number of lines and voice terminals exceeds 30, the attendant won't
have Auto Intercom buttons for some voice terminals in your system. The at-
tendant designates one of these voice terminals by dialing its intercom number
instead of touching its Auto Intercom button.
