Security of Your System Preventing Toll Fraud
As a customer of a new telephone system, you should be aware that there exists an increasing problem of telephone toll
fraud. Telephone toll fraud can occur in many forms, despite the numerous efforts of telephone companies and
telephone equipment manufacturers to control it. For important information regarding your system and toll fraud, see
Appendix A, “Customer Support Information.” It follows Maintenance and Trobleshooting in this binder.
Federal Communications Commission Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case
the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. For further FCC information, see Appendix A,
“Customer Support Information.” It follows Maintenance and Troubleshooting in this binder.
Canadian Department of Communications (DOC) Interference Information
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions set out in the radio interference
regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

Safety
The exclamation point in an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the product.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When installing telephone equipment, always follow basic safety precautions
to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons, including:
Read and understand all instructions.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on or packed with the
product.
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is
specifically designed for wet locations.
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the
telephone wiring has been disconnected at the network interface.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Use only AT&T-manufactured MERLIN LEGEND Communications
System circuit modules, carrier assemblies, and power units in the
MERLIN LEGEND Communications System control unit.
Use only AT&T-recommended/approved MERLIN LEGEND
Communications System accessories.
If equipment connected to the analog extension modules (008, 408,
408 GS/LS) or to the MLX telephone modules (008 MLX, 408 GS/LS-
MLX) is to be used for in-range out-of-building (IROB) applications,
IROB protectors are required.
Installation xv
Safety
Do not install this product near water, for example, in a wet basement
location.
.
Do not overload wall outlets, as this can result in the risk of fire or
electrical shock.
The MERLIN LEGEND Communications System is equipped with a
3-wire grounding-type plug with a third (grounding) pin. This plug will
fit only into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If
you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician
to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
grounding plug.
The MERLIN LEGEND Communications System requires a
supplementary ground.
Do not attach the power supply cord to building surfaces. Do not
allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this product
where the cord will be abused by persons walking on it.
Slots and openings in the module housings are provided for
ventilation. To protect this equipment from overheating, do not block
these openings.
Never push objects of any kind into this product through module
openings or expansion slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage
points or short out parts, which could result in a risk of fire or electrical
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on this product.
Unplug the product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a damp
cloth for cleaning. Do not use cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
Auxiliary equipment includes answering machines, alerts, modems,
and fax machines. To connect one of these devices, you must first
have a Multi-Function Module (MFM).
Do not operate telephones if chemical gas leakage is suspected in
the area. Use telephones located in some other safe area to report the
trouble.
xvi
Installation
Safety
WARNING:
For your personal safety, DO NOT install an MFM yourself.
ONLY an authorized technician or dealer representative shall install,
set options, or repair an MFM.
To eliminate the risk of personal injury due to electrical shock, DO
NOT attempt to install or remove an MFM from your MLX telephone.
Opening or removing the module cover of your telephone may expose
you to dangerous voltages.

Hold, and advanced features, such as Group Coverage and Park. Data
features allow both voice and data to be transmitted over the same system
wiring.
Intended Audience
This book is intended for qualified field technicians who install and upgrade
the system.
How to Use This Book
Qualified technicians can use this book as a guide to installation and
upgrading procedures. The technician is given specific steps for installing all
units of the control unit, telephones, adjuncts and data equipment.

Terms and Conventions Used
Terms and Conventions Used
In this document, the terms in the following list are used in preference to
other, equally acceptable terms for describing communications systems.
Lines, Trunks and Facilities
Facility is a general term that designates a communications path between a
telephone system and the telephone company central office. Technically a
trunk connects a switch to a switch, for example the
Communications System to the central office. Technically, a line is a loopstart facility or a communications path that does not connect two switches
(for example, an intercom line or a Centrex line). However, in actual usage,
the terms line and trunk are often applied interchangeably. In this book, we
use line/trunk and lines/trunks to refer to facilities in general. Specifically, we
refer to digital facilities. We also use terms such as personal line, ground-
start trunk, Direct Inward Dialing (DID) trunk, and so on. When you talk to
your local telephone company central office, ask them what terms they use
for the specific facilities they connect to your system.

System Forms
Some of the installation procedures in this guide refer to system forms. These
forms indicate information that is specific to your customer’s system. The
forms you need should be included with the system programming disk or
memory card, which contains all of the programming specifically for your
customer’s system.
If you are upgrading an existing system and do not have the required forms
for your customer’s system, you can load System Programming and
Maintenance (SPM) and print out the required forms.
If you find that you do not have a completed set of system forms for your
customer’s system, contact your technical support organization or the
Customer Service Center (CSC). See the inside front cover for telephone
numbers.
The system forms that you need are specific for each system, and include
some or all of those described in the following sections.
