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.
Privacy should not be used on an MFM (unless Privacy is to stay on at all
times, as at a data workstation) because the user does not have an LED
to indicate whether Privacy is on or off.
An MFM cannot send a timed flash. As a result, a single-line telephone or
other device connected to an MFM cannot use Recall.
At an MFM, lines that do not receive calls should be set to No Ring.
In Release 6.1 and later systems, voice calls to a telephone connected to
an MFM can be observed; data and video calls cannot be observed.
When set for supplemental alert adapter operation, a MFM can receive a
signal but cannot send one. When set for tip/ring operation, an MFM
cannot receive a signal.
An MFM is treated as an MLX telephone on SMDR reports.
When the 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 Shared SA button.
Calls cannot be transferred from an MFM because an MFM cannot send
a switchhook flash.
Voice Announce to Busy interferes with data calls made through a device
attached to an MFM.
