MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System 61
To connect the MERLIN MAIL VMS to the system, you need the following
equipment:
â– MERLIN MAIL VMS unit
â– Remote maintenance device (a modem and power supply)
â– Modem cable with a 9-pin connector at one end and a 25-pin connector at
the other, to connect the remote maintenance device to the serial port on
the MERLIN MAIL VMS unit
â– D4BU modular cords (two for a two-port system, four for a four-port
system, or six for a six-port system, plus one for the remote maintenance
device)
â– A 016 (T/R) or 012 module (and ring generator, if the module is an older
one that has the apparatus code 517C13, 517D13, 517E13, or 517F13).
Current 012 modules [apparatus code 517G13 (28) or higher-lettered
code] include built-in ring generators and work with all releases of the
system. Models 517A13 and 517B13 cannot be used with Release 3.0 or
later.
NOTE:
The system may require additional TTRs to allow the 012 module to handle
a large number of voice connections. Two TTRs are provided on the 012
module. Four TTRs are provided on the 016 (T/R) module. For more
information about planning TTRs, see Table 62, page I–19
