Programming Features
The MERLIN Attendant is programmed from a Touch-
Tone phone using special command strings that are
discussed in this section. For each command string:
*
tells the MERLIN Attendant that the following
digits are a part of a command string. It can also be
used to start a command over when a mistake is made
## denotes the end of an entry or executes the
command string
CAUTION: All on-site programming for the
MERLIN Attendant must be done from a multi-line
MERLIN phone that is connected to the MERLIN Plus
system control unit. To program from a remote
location, use a standard single-line Touch-Tone phone
and enter one pound sign (#) for every two pound signs
(##) that appear in a programming command.
