Programming Auto Intercom Buttons; Shift Buttons (Console With Attendant Intercom Selector Only) - AT&T MERLIN 3070 Attendant's Manual

The green light next to each Auto Intercom button indicates voice terminal
status, so when a call comes in for someone you can tell whether that per-
son is using the voice terminal. If the green light for a particular intercom
number is on, the voice terminal is busy or has the Do Not Disturb feature
turned on. If the green light flashes rapidly, the person is calling you on
the intercom. If the green light is off, the voice terminal is not in use.
The red light next to each Auto Intercom button on the console for small
systems and the economy console indicates Message status at that voice
terminal.
NOTE: You can always dial an intercom number using the dial pad instead
of using an Auto Intercom button. If an instruction step in this guide tells
you to touch an Auto Intercom button that you don't have, the substitute
steps are to touch Intercom-Voice or Intercom-Ring and dial the inter-
com number.

SHIFT BUTTONS (Console with Attendant Intercom Selector only)

The three Shift buttons on the Attendant Intercom Selector enable you
to attend as many as 70 voice terminals (the system capacity) by using
the 30 Auto Intercom buttons on the right side of the console. When you
touch a Shift button, you change the intercom numbers assigned to each
Auto Intercom button. Auto Intercom and Shift buttons used together
enable you to call intercom numbers, transfer calls, and determine voice
terminal status.
Each Shift button is labeled with three numbers, for example, 10-20-30.
From left to right, each number on a Shift button corresponds to a col-
umn of Auto Intercom buttons as illustrated. The leftmost number cor-
responds to the left column of buttons, the middle number corresponds
to the middle column, and the rightmost number corresponds to the right
column of buttons.
So, for example, if you touch the 10-20-30 Shift button, the left column of
Auto Intercom buttons represents intercoms 10 through 19, the center col-
umn of buttons represents intercoms 20 through 29, and the right column
represents intercoms 30 through 39. In other words, the 10-20-30 Shift
button represents intercom numbers in the blue band on the Auto Inter-
com buttons.
