To prevent unauthorized changes to recorded announcements or programmed
settings, an authorized caller code must be entered before any changes can be
made to the programming of the MERLIN Attendant. The default code
number is 789 but it can be changed to any sequence of numbers from one to
20 digits in length. Follow the procedure below to change the code:
1 Select an outside line and dial a telephone number that is answered by
your MERLIN Attendant.
If you are programming from a remote location using a single-line
NOTE:
standard Touch-Tone phone, enter only one pound sign (#) for
every two pound signs ( # #) that appear in a programming
command.
2 Wait for an answer.
3 Dial *6 followed by the current authorized caller code and # #.
The two-beep confirmation tone sounds.
