Section 4
Using your Bizfon 
with Other Office 
Equipment
This section gives information on how to 
extend your Bizfon communications system 
to work with other equipment you may have 
in your office.
Fax MachinesIf you have a dedicated fax line that you 
would also like to use for outgoing calls, 
connect this line to the blue “Incoming Tele-
phone Lines” jack labeled “6”. Then connect 
your fax machine to the yellow “Telephones” 
jack labeled “8”. After being configured by 
Customer Care, the Bizfon 680 will automat-
ically route any incoming faxes to the fax 
machine at extension 208.
When the fax machine is not in use, this line 
can be used for placing outgoing calls. 
Please call Bizfon Customer Care at exten-
sion 299 to enable this capability. 
Audio Devices 
for Music-on-
HoldIn order to play music to callers who are on 
hold, you can connect an audio device, such 
as a CD player, tape deck or radio, to the 
Music-On-Hold (MOH) jack on the Bizfon 
680. 
Your audio source most likely produces ste-
reo output, and your Bizfon requires mono 
input. You need to purchase a stereo-to-

mono converter that has a single RCA jack 
(Radio Shack part number: 42-2444). 
Connect the cable to your audio source, and 
plug it into the Music-On-Hold (MOH) con-
nector on the Bizfon 680. Set the levels on 
your audio source. If it is distorted, turn 
down the volume on your audio source. 
Note:
Please be aware that you may need ASCAP 
authorization to play music to callers on 
hold. For more information, contact ASCAP 
at (212) 621-6000 or go to their Web site at 
www.ascap.com.

Appendix A
Startup/Test 
Button
Using the Star-
tup/Test ButtonAfter connecting your telephone lines and 
telephones, you can use the Startup/Test but-
ton to confirm that your Bizfon 680 is prop-
erly set up.
1. Press the Startup/Test button (the blue 
button in the center of the Bizfon 680) 
once. A welcome message is played 
along with a notification that the system 
cannot be used for incoming or outgoing 
calls while being tested. When you press 
the button again, calls in progress will be 
halted. You should  wait until all LEDs 
located at the telephone jacks are off, 
indicating that no one is on the phone. 
2. Press the button again to start the test for 
the Incoming Telephone Lines. A mes-
sage tells you that the Incoming Lines 
will be tested. The LEDs at each con-
nected line will flash as the diagnostics 
detect a dial tone. The test will be 
repeated every 7 seconds. If an LED at a 
jack with a line connected does not flash, 
it indicates that a dial tone is not 
detected. Check to make sure that the 
line is connected to a wall jack with a 
live Incoming Telephone Line. Be sure to 
wait at least 10 seconds after changing 
any connections before pressing the but-
ton again to proceed to the next test.

Important!
The results of this test are used by the Bizfon 
680 to determine which telephone lines may 
be used to make outgoing calls. Be sure to 
run this test each time after making any 
changes to the Incoming Telephone Lines.
3. Press the button again. A message is 
played indicating that the Incoming Tele-
phones Lines test is complete and that 
now the diagnostics will test the exten-
sions by consecutively ringing each tele-
phone connected to the Bizfon 680.
4. Press the button a final time and the sys-
tem announces that the extensions test is 
complete. The time and date are then 
announced. 
Your Bizfon 680 is now fully tested and 
ready for use!
NOTE:
1) If an incoming call comes in while the test 
runs, the test wont get dial tone on that line, 
even though its a valid line, and the line will 
be disabled. After 7 seconds the call will be 
disconnected, and the Bizfon 680 will detect 
dial tone the next time the line goes off hook.

Installation 
Considerations
Mounting 
Bracket It is recommended that you do not use your 
Bizfon 680 without the mounting bracket 
attached, whether mounted and attached to a 
wall or when resting on a table or desk top. 
Attaching the 
BracketBefore attaching the bracket, you may want 
to write down the serial number that is on the 
back of the Bizfon 680 for registration pur-
poses. 
1. Hold the Bizfon 680 in your left hand 
with the power cord facing toward you 
and your thumb on the blue button.

2. Hold the bracket in your right hand, with 
the side with the large rectangular open-
ing facing the back of the Bizfon 680 and 
align the four tabs on the mounting 
bracket with the four slots on the bottom 
of the Bizfon 680, as shown below.   
						

							Appendix B Bizfon 680 Installation Considerations

3. Slide the bracket until it snaps in place 
with the tabs secured in the slots, as shown 
below.
Removing the 
Bracket1. Apply downward pressure with your 
thumb to the portion of the mounting 
bracket that protrudes into the space 
where the Voice  Vault option slot is 
located, as shown below.
2. While applying downward pressure, 
simultaneously slide the bracket in the 
direction of the power cord. 
3. Pull the bracket away from the back of 
the Bizfon 680.

Wall Mount
1. Position the Bizfon 680 within four (4) 
feet of a power outlet.  
2. Attach the bracket to the wall vertically, 
using the enclosed screws, or screws and 
drywall anchors, as appropriate to the 
type of wall on which you are mounting 
the Bizfon 680, as shown in the figures 
above.  When using the anchors on dry-
wall, pre-drill a 3/16” pilot hole. When 
using the anchors on concrete, pre-drill a 
1/4” pilot hole.
3. Lock the Bizfon into place on the 
bracket, by positioning the Bizfon 680 
over the bracket and sliding it down onto 
the tabs of the bracket, as shown in the 
figure under “Attaching the Bracket”.
