Installing a CTI Link

Installing a CTI Link
There are two procedures in this section: how to add a CTI link to the MERLIN
LEGEND Communications System—a new installation , and how to get a CTI
link working again after a link shutdown—a link reinstatement .

New Installation

Considerations
In Release 5.0, the MERLIN LEGEND Communications System supports one
CTI link.
The system must be in Hybrid/PBX mode.
A telephone cannot be plugged into the CTI link port.
A brand-new, 4-pair cable must be installed. No reuse of wire is supported.
Proper Systimax hardware must be used, including cords and connecting
blocks.
Hardware Requirements
There are no new hardware requirements in Release 5.0 of the MERLIN
LEGEND Communications System.
The CTI link plugs into an available port on an 008 MLX or 408 MLX module.
However, the firmware vintage for the module must be other than 29. An earlier
or future vintage must be used for CTI link operation. If the firmware vintage is
29, the link administation is prevented and the System Programming screens
tell you that the firmware 29 canot be used.
A summary of the installation procedure is provided below:
