Introduction
If the telephone number matches a record in the MERLIN
Identifier database that has a name associated with it, the
MERLIN Identifier system also sends the caller’s name to the
MERLIN Identifier Displays. If the Central Office sends the caller’s
name with the telephone number and there is no matching name
in the database, the name supplied by the Central Office is sent
to the MERLIN Identifier Displays.
MERLIN Identifier Displays
display the information sent to
them from the MERLIN Identifier Control Unit—both Caller ID
information as it is received and MERLIN Identifier database
information that corresponds to the caller’s telephone number. If
the caller’s MERLIN Identifier database record has a “priority
flag,” the MERLIN Identifier Display can be set to beep to call
attention to it. The MERLIN Identifier Display can also be set to
beep at every call, or never to beep at all. Users can scroll
through the information displayed for the last 18 callers on each of
up to four Central Office lines.
See the MERLIN Identifier User’s Quick Reference for more
information on MERLIN Identifier Displays.
MERLIN Identifier Administrative Display and Keyboard
are
used by the system administrator to set up the MERLIN Identifier
system and maintain the MERLIN Identifier database. MERLIN
Identifier command menus, messages, and prompts are
displayed on the Administrative Display. Single character
administrative commands are entered on the Administrative
Keyboard and simultaneously displayed on the Administrative
Display.
Administrative PC
is a customer-provided PC that can be used
in place of the standard Administrative Display and keyboard to
provide additional administrative features such as expanded
menus and prompts, and data transfers between the MERLIN
Identifier database and database software running on the PC.
