VOICE TERMINALS
Each MERLIN Plus system voice terminal (telephone) in your system will
have a
2-d@
intercom number corresponding to the number of the voice
terminal jack on the control unit where the voice terminal connects to the
system. The valid intercom numbers for a control unit with 10 voice termin
jacks are 10 through 19. For a control unit with 20 voice terminal jacks, the
valid intercom numbers are 10 through 29. The jack locations are illustrated
on a label to the left of the modules in the control unit.
Intercom Number 10
By design, the intercom 10 position is the primary call-handling position in
the system, and it is also the system administration point. If your system w
have an attendant, you should assign intercom number 10 to the voice
terminal at the system attendant’s location. For complete system
administration, the voice terminal assigned intercom 10 should be either a
BIS-22 or a BIS-34 model. If you have 10 or fewer voice terminals, you may
prefer to use a BIS-22 voice terminal.

location on the line next to number 10.
