Considerations and Constraints
The system can be set up for either Hotel or Calling Group/CMS mode but not for
both.
In Hotel mode, when DSS buttons are used to monitor status, operators can use
the Message Status button to see whether an operator turned on message LEDs
at the telephones. In Calling Group mode, message status shows busy/not busy
status of the agents.
If a hotel has more than three floors and you wish to have the first digit of the
extensions correspond to the floor number—for example, Floor 5 has extensions
501 through 520—then you should use a MERLIN II System Display Console with
built-in DSS buttons instead of DSS adjuncts. This is because the DSS buttons on
the MERLIN II System Display Console correspond to the extension jacks instead
of a range of extension numbers, as on the DSS adjunct. A DSS adjunct cannot
have buttons for more than three ranges of numbers. The status of the first 120
rooms is displayed. If the hotel has more than 120 rooms, Auto Dial buttons can
be assigned to up to 33 line buttons on the console to be used for Extension
Status and for transferring calls to the rooms.
