Instruction manual
During this step you will temporarily disconnect some of your telephone lines. This
will interrupt your telephone service for several minutes. Consider doing this step
outside your normal business hours or during non-busy calling periods. To prevent
an accidental disconnection of calls in progress, verify that none of your outside
lines are in use before beginning.
If you have more than two outside lines, it is preferable to connect the CLASSIC MAIL
system to the two least busy lines; this makes retrieving messages a little easier. The
instructions below assume that your least busy lines are those plugged to outside line
jacks C and D on your Merlin Control Unit.
Note:
If you decide to connect the CLASSIC MAIL system to lines other than those plugged into jacks C
and D, follow the instructions below, substituting the line designators for these different lines in place of
line designators C and D.
