Triplex Adapter Two Line Phone Two Line External TAD Brother Machine You can keep two-line telephones on other wall outlets as always. There are two ways to add a two-line telephone to the FAX/MFC's wall outlet. You can plug the telephone line cord from the two-line telephone into the L1+L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Or, you can plug the two-line telephone into the TEL jack of the two-line TAD. Multi-Line Connections (PBX) Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively simple to connect the FAX/MFC to a key system or a PBX (Private Branch Exchange), we suggest that you contact the company that installed your telephone system and ask them to connect the FAX/MFC for you. It is advisable to have a separate line for the FAX/MFC. You can then leave the FAX/MFC in FAX ONLY Mode to receive faxes any time, day or night. If the FAX/MFC is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask your installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the unit from being activated each time a telephone call is received. (See Easy Receive, page 5-4.) As with all fax units, this machine must be connected to a two wire system.

Any cases of difficulty should be reported first to the company that handles your PBX. 2 If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is recommended that the Answer Mode be set to MANUAL. All incoming calls should initially be regarded as telephone calls. 3 The unit may be used with either pulse or tone dialing telephone service.
