Instructions for Completing
System and Voice Terminal
Configuration Forms
Reading and completing this brief guide helps you decide how to set up your
MERLIN® communications system (Models 1030 and 3070, with Feature Module 5)
to satisfy the needs of your business. As you read through this guide, answer the
questions in order as you come to them. The boxed instructions help you fill out a
System Configuration Form and a Voice Terminal Configuration Form for each voice
terminal in your system. You need these forms and the administration manual to
customize your MERLIN system.
SYSTEM OPTIONS
The following questions help you fill out the System Configuration Form on page 157.
Complete this form before filling out any Voice Terminal Configuration Forms.

system?

the next year?
1 c. Total number of voice terminals (#1a + #1b):

How many outside lines does your system control?

System Size
If the answer to #2c is greater than 8, or if the answer to #1c is greater than

3. What sort of telephone system are the people in your system
accustomed to using?
Key System (a system, such as COM-KEY® or 1A2 Key, where
each line appears on a separate button at each telephone)
Nonkey System (a system, such as Horizon®, with many lines
available through a few System Access or Trunk Access buttons
or with basic telephones that each have their own line)
4. Do you want Automatic Route Selection (ARS)? With ARS, you
can program your system to select automatically the route for
each call based on what you administer. You make economical
routing decisions and program the system with that information.
Otherwise, individuals select the type of line they think is
appropriate.
