Using a cordless external 
handset
If your cordless telephone is connected to the 
EXT. jack on the machine and you typically 
carry the cordless handset elsewhere, it is 
easier to answer calls during the Ring Delay.
Changing the remote codes
The preset Fax Receive Code is  51. The 
preset Telephone Answer Code is  #51. If you 
want to, you can replace them with your own 
codes.

The TAD must answer within four rings (the 
recommended setting is two rings). The 
machine cannot hear CNG tones until the 
TAD has answered the call, and with four 
rings there are only 8 to 10 seconds of CNG 
tones left for the fax “handshake”. Make sure 
you carefully follow the instructions in this 
guide for recording your outgoing message. 
We do not recommend using the toll saver 
feature on your external answering machine if 
it exceeds five rings.

Converting telephone wall 
outlets
There are three ways to convert to an RJ11 
jack. The first two ways may require 
assistance from the telephone company. You 
can change the wall outlets from one RJ14 
jack to two RJ11 jacks. Or, you can have an 
RJ11 wall outlet installed and slave or jump 
one of the phone numbers to it.
The third way is the easiest: Buy a triplex 
adapter. You can plug a triplex adapter into 
an RJ14 outlet. It separates the wires into two 
separate RJ11 jacks (Line 1, Line...

Multi-line connections (PBX)
Most offices use a  central telephone system. 
While it is often relatively simple to connect 
the machine 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 machine for you. 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...
