Fax/Modem device to receive Fax calls automatically when using a Telecom Distinctive Ring service. DUET SWITCH is TRANSPARENT in operation, which means that it will not affect the normal use of your telephone line in any way and will work with all other telephone devices that may be fitted to your line.
Connect your Fax Machine to the FAX NUMBER port of DUET SWITCH using the telephone line cord fitted to it. Connect the supplied 12V Power Adaptor to the 12V POWER PORT of DUET SWITCH. Set your FAX MACHINE (or Fax/Modem) to AUTO-ANSWER on the minimum number of rings possible.
