When an MFM is installed in an MLX telephone, the ALS sequence for
the MFM should be set to select SA Ring or ICOM Ring, then SA
Originate Only or ICOM Originate Only, then outside lines (or the prime
line in Behind Switch mode) assigned to the MFM. Ringing/Idle Line
Preference should be on for an MFM.
Both Automatic and Selective Callback can be used from an MFM; but a
callback call cannot be manually canceled because the MFM does not
recognize the switchhook flash produced by pressing the Drop button.
The Conference feature cannot be used on the MFM because the system
ignores the switchhook flash sent by the MFM.
When an MFM device is used for both inside and outside calls to
supplement ringing (external alert) or to answer or screen calls
(answering machine), calls can be redirected to the device by assigning a
Primary Cover, Secondary Cover, or Group Cover button. Coverage and
Forward and Follow Me should not be used simultaneously.
An MLX telephone at a digital data workstation must not include an MFM.
Do Not Disturb is not recommended because the device connected to the
MFM does not have an LED to indicate when the feature is active.
A single-line telephone with a Message LED connected to an MFM can
receive message waiting indications but not stutter dial tone.
An MLX telephone user can activate Forward and Follow Me to redirect
incoming calls to an MFM device. However, Coverage and Forward and
Follow Me should not be used simultaneously.
An MFM can be assigned as a calling group delay announcement or as a
calls-in-queue alert for a calling group queue.
A single-line telephone connected to an MFM cannot put a call on hold
because the MFM cannot send a switchhook flash.
A single-line telephone with a Message LED connected to an MFM can
receive message-waiting indications.
A single-line telephone connected to an MFM cannot be used as a
HotLine.
An MFM can be a member of a Night Service group. An external alert
connected to the MFM in SAA operation, when assigned to a Night
Service group, can provide supplemental ringing for after-hours calls.
An MFM should not be a member of a speakerphone paging group.
A user at an MFM cannot park a call but can pick up a call parked by
another user.
If an MFM device is used to answer calls or provide supplementary
ringing for its associated MLX telephone, any personal lines removed
from the telephone should also be removed from the MFM. When the
device connected to an MFM (a modem, for example) requires a personal
line to make and/or receive calls, a personal line should be assigned.
