We'll need to know:
Merlin release
T1 Module you'll being using
CSU, CSU/DSU you'll be using (if necessary)
What type of C.O. switch you'll be connecting to, i.e.: 5ESS, DMS100
Type of T1, i.e.: Standard or PRI
If standard, will it be allocated as Tie-Line, Loop-Start, Ground-Start, DID or a combination.
Will you be using for Data also?

Looks like a standard T1:
LinesTrunks > LS/GS/DS1 > Dial slot no. > ENTER > Type > T1 > ENTER > All Tie > ENTER
Frame Format
LinesTrunks > LS/GS/DS1 > Dial slot no. > ENTER > FrameFormat > Extentended Superframe > ENTER > BACK > BACK
Zero Code Suppresion
Suppresion > B8ZS > ENTER > BACK
Dial Mode
LinesTrunks > TIE Lines > Dial Mode > Inmode or Out Mode > Dial trunk number > change from rotary to touch-tone > ENTER
Leave other settings at default.
Since you did not mention the type of DS1 module you have, I'll add that if it is a 100-DCD or 100-R, do NOT activate the onboard CSU, since you'll be using an external CSU.
Since this is your second T1, you could also set this slot as your secondary clock- syncronization source.
When your sure everything is working correctly, add your new trunks to a pool and add that pool to your ARS routing table(s)
