Instruction manual
The Control Unit is a small, breadbox-sized piece of equipment that is located
somewhere in your office building, normally in a closet, back room, attic, or some
other out-of-the-way location. You will need to locate your Control Unit to install
the CLASSIC MAIL system.
Outside lines from the telephone company, and all of your telephones, plug into
jacks (plugs) on your Control Unit. Outside lines plug into line jacks; telephones
plug into voice terminal jacks. The CLASSIC MAIL system will plug into both of these
types of jacks.
Installing the CLASSIC MAIL System With Your Merlin System
Installing the CLASSIC MAIL system is easy. You install the CLASSIC MAIL system
in between your Merlin Control Unit and your incoming lines. You then plug the
CLASSIC MAIL system into one or more vacant Control Unit voice terminal jacks.
Figure 1B shows what your telephone system looks like with the CLASSIC MAIL
system installed.
