PBX and TRANSFER
The machine is initially set to Normal, which lets
the machine connect to a standard PSTN (Public
Switched Telephone Network) line. However,
many offices use a central telephone system or
Private Automatic Branch Exchange (PABX).
Your machine can be connected to most types of
PABX (PBX). The machine's recall feature
supports timed break recall only (TBR). TBR will
work with most PABX (PBX) systems allowing
you to gain access to an outside line, or transfer
calls to another extension. The feature works
when Tel/R is pressed.
