Getting Started; Your Console - AT&T MERLIN 3070 Attendant's Manual

Getting Started

®
With your MERLIN system attendant console, you can handle calls in
your office efficiently and program many convenient features. This atten-
dant's guide contains the information you need to use your console to best
advantage. Keep the guide handy for quick reference.

YOUR CONSOLE

You may have one of the following consoles: an attendant console for
a small system, an attendant console with attached Attendant Intercom
Selector for a large system, or an economy attendant console for a large
system.
For small systems, that is, for systems with eight or fewer lines and 20 or
fewer voice terminals, you use the following attendant console:
Attendant Console for Small Systems
The console for small systems is a 34-button deluxe voice terminal.
It is suitable as the console for a small system because it has enough
buttons to show the status of each line and each voice terminal in the
system. The system assigns lines and intercom numbers to buttons
automatically.
For large systems, that is, for systems with more than eight lines or more
than 20 voice terminals, you use either of the two available consoles
described below.
Attendant Console with Attendant Intercom Selector for
Large Systems
The larger of the two consoles available for a large system is a
34-button deluxe voice terminal with an attached Attendant Intercom
Selector. It is suitable as a console for a large system because up to
70 voice terminals can be represented using the Auto Intercom but-
tons on the Attendant Intercom Selector. This leaves all 30 buttons
on the console available to show the status of each line in the system.
On this console, all lines and intercom numbers are assigned to but-
tons automatically when the system is activated.
