Park Eight park zone codes (factory set extension numbers 881–888) are
automatically reserved for parking calls from a DLC. These numbers
cannot be assigned to the DSS buttons on a MERLIN II System Display
Console. To assign park zones to a DSS connected to an MLX DLC, the
numbers must be in the range programmed for the Page buttons. An
operator can program park zone codes on inside Auto Dial buttons. An
inside Auto Dial button can also be programmed with a user’s or
operator’s own extension number and can be used to park calls.
Personal Lines In all modes, the factory setting in for analog DLCs assigns the first 32
lines connected to the system as personal lines. On MLX DLCs, the first
18 lines are automatically assigned as personal lines.
In Release 6.0 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), private trunks
must not be assigned as personal lines on a DLC.
Pickup A DLC can be part of a pickup group, allowing other group members to
provide backup for the DLC. In turn, a DLC operator uses Pickup to
answer calls on lines that are not assigned to buttons on the console.
Pools In Hybrid/PBX mode, a Pool button cannot be assigned to a DLC. A DLC
operator accesses a pool by dialing the pool dial-out code from an SA
button or, on an MLX DLC with a DSS, by pressing the DSS button
associated with the pool dial-out code. Lines/trunks assigned to pools can
be assigned as personal lines only on a DLC.
In Release 6.0 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), a DLC should
not be given dial access to private trunk pools, nor should these trunks be
assigned as personal lines on a DLC.
Reminder Service DLC operators can use Reminder Set to set or cancel reminders directed
to other users. The operator can also see when a reminder has been
missed, because the user did not answer the call, and then cancel the
missed reminder. The Missed Reminder feature can be used only at
operator positions.
Remote Access Invalid remote access calls can be programmed to ring on an SA or ICOM
button on a DLC.
Service Observing In Release 6.1 and later systems, a DLC MLX telephone can be a Service
Observer and can be a member of a Service Observing group.
Speed Dial System Speed Dial numbers can be programmed from the first DLC
connected to the first (lowest) analog extension jack on the module in slot
01 of the control unit.
System Access/
Intercom Buttons
Shared SA buttons cannot be assigned to DLCs.
Transfer A DLC operator uses Transfer to direct calls to other users. See
“Transfer” on page 693
for further information.
