Telephones and Consoles Description, Installation, and Operation
Meridian External Alerter and Recording Interface
The External Alerter Board provides an interface to standard remote ringing
devices, such as a ringing unit, installed in a location separate from the
telephone. The Meridian External Alerter and Recording Interface (MEARI)
is not the remote ringer itself, but provides access to standard, off-the-shelf
remote ringing devices. The Alerter Board requires additional power. See
“Power requirements” on
page 488 .
You can program the MEARI interface to activate a ringer (or light) when the
telephone rings or when the telephone is in use (off-hook). A call to any DN
configured on the telephone triggers the alerter. The MEARI alerts to one
active call at a time; if the telephone is already active on a call, a second call
will not activate MEARI.
For information on installing and setting up the External Alerter, see “Add-on
modules” in “External Alerter Board” on
page 416 .
Brandline Insert
The telephone contains a removable insert designed to accommodate custom
labeling. You can order blank Brandline Inserts and have a printer silkscreen
your company logo on them.
