AT&T MERLIN 3070 Administration Manual page 157

VOICE TERMINAL OPTIONS
Now that you've completed the System Configuration Form, begin filling out Voice
Terminal Configuration Forms, one for each voice terminal in your system. You may
want to begin by creating a system directory and planning which intercom number
and which type of voice terminal each person will use. (The system directory form
is included in your Control Unit's Installation kit.)
On pages 158 through 160, there are forms for voice terminals in square systems
and pooled systems, and for attendant consoles. Make enough photocopies of the
appropriate form (either square system, pooled system, or attendant console) so that
you can fill out one form for each of your voice terminals. Fill out an attendant con-
sole form for intercom 10 first (this should be your primary attendant's console; refer
to your System Configuration Form for the intercom numbers for additional atten-
dant consoles), then fill out voice terminal forms for the remaining intercoms in
numerical order without skipping numbers. Group basic telephones together (for ex-
ample, reserve intercom numbers 60 through 69 for basic telephones) and use the
remaining intercom numbers for MERLIN system voice terminals.
a.
Basic Information
Fill in an intercom number (10 through 39 for Model 1030 configured as
a 1030, 10 through 29 for Model 1030 configured as a 1520, and 10 through
79 for Model 3070 configured as a 3070), and the user's name or location
such as "Mail room." Keep in mind it is best to assign intercom numbers
in the 10 through 29 range to people for whom an attendant handles many
calls. On each Voice Terminal Configuration Form, check the appropriate
boxes to indicate voice terminal size, the type of voice terminal stand, and
the type of accessories used with the voice terminal.
NOTE: If you have a square system or if the voice terminal serves as an atten-
dant console, skip to box d.
b.
Assigning Lines (Pooled Systems)
The first two buttons above the intercom buttons will be used for Dial Ac-
cess to Line Pools or for Button Access to the main pool (access code
9). Assign any additional lines or line pools to separate buttons.
Remember not to assign lines or line pools to buttons in the columns to
the right of the dial pad on 34-button voice terminals since these buttons
do not have lights. Write the line or line pool numbers or names in the
numbered buttons on the Voice Terminal Configuration Form. Fill in the
button labeled "1" first, then "2", "3", and so on.
c.
Dial Access to Line Pools
If you selected the Dial Access to Line Pools option, and the person using
a particular voice terminal will use dial codes to select lines, list the dial
codes in the lower left of the Voice Terminal Configuration Form. Refer
to the System Configuration Form to check which lines are assigned to
line pools.
