Jacks for Tip/Ring
Equipment and
Applications
See System Reference for more
information on applications.
Use these instructions only if the system includes 012 or 008 OPT modules.
Assign the basic telephone jacks on the 012 or 008 OPT modules to any tip/ring
equipment such as single-line telephones, fax machines, or answering
machines. Tip/ring equipment connects directly to an outside trunk and works
on a single pair of wires. When connected to a 008 OPT module, the tip/ring
equipment can be located off premises.
Several optional applications, if used with the system, require a basic jack on a
012 module: MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System, MERLIN Attendant,
AUDIX Voice Power—lS II, and Integrated Voice Power Automated Attendant—
IS Il.
Up to four applications can be connected to the system using the same 012
module. If there are four applications, the module must be used exclusively
for this equipment. If you have fewer than four applications connected to a 012
module, some tip/ring devices can also be connected. If possible, the module
should be used only for the application equipment.
Note: The applications discussed here do not work properly with 012 modules
manufactured for older MERLIN
connected to 012 modules with the code 517C13 or 517D13 on the label on the
top of the module. Modules with the code 517A13 or 517B13 can be used to
connect only single-line telephones and do not provide the disconnect signal
required by answering machines and applications.
