board arrangement to accommodate matching
cord terminal wafers, so that any line connected
to the set can be interchanged readily to appear
on any five line pickup keys. See Fig. 2 and 3
for terminal designations on the 636A and 636B,
respectively.

Lamps associated with the buttons may have
common or individual grounds. See sections
covering connections of individual telephone sets
for lamp connections.

sets are arranged for conversion to signaling.
To convert, remove P-12A892 screw detail (Fig. 1)
and make necessary wiring changes. Table A
