Connections

The external TAD must be plugged into the
jack labeled EXT. Your machine cannot work
properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack
(unless you are using Distinctive Ring).
a
Plug the telephone line cord from the
telephone wall jack into the jack labeled
LINE.
b
Remove the protective cap (1) from the
jack labeled EXT., and then plug the
telephone line cord from the external
TAD into the EXT. jack. (Make sure this
cord is connected to the TAD at the
TAD's telephone line jack, and not its
handset jack.)
1
c
Set your external TAD to four rings or
less. (The machine's Ring Delay setting
does not apply.)
d
Record the outgoing message on your
external TAD.
e
Set the TAD to answer calls.
f
Set the Receive Mode to
External TAD. (See Choose the
correct Receive Mode on page 35.)
46
Recording an outgoing
6
message (OGM) on an
external TAD
Timing is important in recording this message.
The message sets up the ways to handle both
manual and automatic fax reception.
a
Record 5 seconds of silence at the
beginning of your message. (This allows
your machine time to listen for the fax
CNG tones of automatic transmissions
before they stop.)
b
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
c
End your 20-second message by giving
your Fax Receive Code for people
sending manual faxes. For example:
"After the beep, leave a message or
send a fax by pressing l 5 1 and Start."
Note
We recommend beginning your OGM with
an initial 5-second silence because the
machine cannot hear fax tones over a
resonant or loud voice. You may try
omitting this pause, but if your machine
has trouble receiving, then you must
re-record the OGM to include it.

Multi-line connections (PBX)

We suggest you ask the company who
installed your PBX to connect your machine.
If you have a multi-line system we suggest
you ask the installer to connect the unit to the
last line on the system. This prevents the
machine being activated each time the
system receives telephone calls. If all
incoming calls will be answered by a
switchboard operator we recommend that
you set the Receive Mode to Manual.
We cannot guarantee that your machine will
operate properly under all circumstances
when connected to a PBX. Any difficulties
with sending or receiving faxes should be
reported first to the company who handles
your PBX.
