THE FORMS AND LABELS YOU NEED

Before you begin performing administration procedures, be sure to complete all the

necessary forms:

A System Configuration Form to keep a record of how the lines in your system

are arranged.

Voice Terminal Configuration Forms to record the lines and features assigned

to all voice terminals. Fill out one of these for each voice terminal.

You should have filled out these forms when you completed the MERLIN Com-

munications System Planning Guide: Models 1030 and 3070. If you did not, copy the

ones in the Appendix and fill them out before you proceed further. These forms serve

as important references throughout system administration procedures.

During system administration the buttons on the administrator/attendant console per-

form completely different functions than they do when the console is being used to

handle calls. Therefore, you need a different set of button labels whenever you use

the console for system administration. There are two sets of preprinted administra-

tion mode button labels in the back of this manual: one set for large consoles, and

one set for small consoles. Keep the labels and completed forms to use whenever

you administer your system.

Before you begin administration procedures, choose a time when you do not expect

many people to be using their voice terminals. When you perform some administra-

tion procedures, the system blocks all calls on the lines or voice terminals with which

you are working. Blocked voice terminals generate soft, periodic beeps to alert peo-

ple that they cannot use them. if you accidentally try to administer a voice terminal

that has an active call, you do not cut off the caller. Rather, you are unable to ad-

minister that voice terminal until it is idle.
