Considerations
You cannot connect MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System to a system
operating in Behind Switch mode.
MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System is available in 2-port and 4-port
configurations. Both models have four hours of message storage capacity.
You can use up to eight jacks on an 012 basic telephone module or up to 16
jacks on an 016 basic telephone module for MERLIN MAIL.
If you use all eight jacks on an 012 module for MERLIN MAIL, you cannot
connect any other devices to the module. When using fewer than eight jacks
on the 012 module, you can use the remaining jacks for tip/ring devices.
When a mailbox user receives voice mail messages, the Message LEDs on
his or her telephone is on, provided that a physical telephone has been
assigned to that mailbox.
Trunks to be answered by MERLIN MAIL should be programmed for reliable
far-end disconnect.
