Port Assignments
The communications system assigns logical IDs and extensions to each port on the MERLIN
Messaging System module. The first logical ID and extension assigned to the MERLIN Messaging
System module is assigned to Port 1, the second to Port 2, etc. The communications system assigns 12
logical IDs and extensions to the MERLIN Messaging System module.
In Release 2 or later, if a Message-Waiting Light (MWL) update or Outcalling action needs to be
performed, the following ports are used:
Port 2 on a 2-port system
●   
Port 4 on a 4-port system
●   
Ports 5 and 6 on a 6-port system
●   
Ports 7 and 8 on an 8-port system
●   
Ports 9 and 10 on a 10-port system
●   
Ports 11 and 12 on a 12-port system
●   
The Remote Maintenance Device (RMD) is not assigned to a dedicated logical ID and extension.
