Connecting an External Telephone
Your machine is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular
phone. However, you can also connect a separate telephone (or telephone
answering device) directly to your machine.
Connect the modular plug on the telephoneÕs line cord to the jack labeled
EXT. on the left side of the machine.
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays EXT. TEL IN
USE, and, if the machine handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To disconnect...

Special Line Considerations
Roll Over Phone Lines
A roll over phone system is a group of two or more separate telephone
lines that pass incoming calls to each other if they are busy. The calls are
usually passed down or Òrolled overÓ to the next available phone line in a
preset order.
Your machine can work in a roll over system as long as it is the last
number in the sequence, so the call cannot roll away. Do not put the
machine on any of the other numbers; when the other...

Installing Machine, External Two-Line TAD,
and Two-Line Telephone
When you are installing an external two-line telephone answering device
(TAD) and a two-line telephone, your machine must be isolated on one
line at both the wall jack and at the TAD. The most common connection is
to put the machine on Line 2, which is our assumption in the following
steps. The back of the two-line TAD must have two telephone jacks: one
labeled L1 or L1/L2, and the other labeled L2. You will...

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. You can then leave the
machine in FAX mode to receive faxes any time of day or night.
If the machine is to be...
