Assigning Lines to the Voice Port(s) Used for Outcalling

If the communications system is operating in Key Mode and Outcalling is used, you must assign one or more outside lines to the MERLIN Messaging System ports used for Outcalling. You must also set the lines to No Ring, as described in the next procedure, to ensure proper operation. These procedures are not necessary if the communications system is operating in the Hybrid/PBX mode.
