Hi,


Few weeks ago on email I saw a seller selling a Legend phone system along with a 8434dx phone. He had a pic of it plugged in the the legend card. I was wondering if a 8434DX really works on a legend as I never have seen that my self and would think only the MLS phones would work.

Thank you
Brian

Let me guess........eBay?
To answer your ?, No.
The 8434DX is a Definity phone.

There are several phones that will work with the Merlin Legend system. Depending on what cards are present in the carrier(s), you can use:

1) MLX phones
2) MLS, Euro 1 & Euro 2 phones
3) Single-line phones
4) ATL phones (Classic Merlin units)

yes you can make it work with a merlin 11 8 digital station module #61386A

From the very limited information I can find online, it appears that the 008D was strictly a Merlin II module and not supported by the Merlin Legend:

"008D supported digital phones, but limited selection All Merlin II, not
supported in Legend"

Phone Systems" Release 5....2003....page 22/72)

:confused:

yup just like some legends packs not supported on a magix , but they still work
definity packs that work on system 25

AT&T had a lot of not supported any more ,unless you paid more for it to work,
