Setup Multi-line connections (PBX) Most offices use a central telephone system.

It is advisable to have a separate line for the machine. If the machine 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. If you are installing the machine to work with a PBX 1 It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate properly under all circumstances with a PBX. 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 Receive Mode be set to Manual.

Connecting an external telephone answering device (TAD) Sequence You may choose to connect an external answering device. However, when you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the machine, the TAD answers all calls and the machine "listens" for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it does not hear CNG tones, the machine lets the TAD continue playing your outgoing message so your caller can leave you a voice message. 3 - 5

If the machine is to be connected to a

This prevents the unit from being activated
each time a telephone call is received.
