Send And Receive Modem - AT&T PARTNER Installation And Use Manual

Send and Receive Modem

If you need to place and receive calls with the modem, use the setup shown in
Figure 4-8. This setup makes line 4 the primary modem line, but keeps the line
available for users at other extensions when all other lines are busy.
To Use
Calls on the modem line (line 4) ring only at extension X. Likewise, line 4 is the
last line selected by other extensions in the system, so the modem line is
unavailable for the modem only when all other lines in the system are being
used.
To Set Up
1.
Set Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to Assigned.
2.
Set Line Ringing for line 4 on extension X to Ring.
Set Automatic Line Selection for extension X to select line 4 first; for all
3.
other extensions set Automatic Line Selection to select line 4 last. That
way, the modem line is used for outgoing voice calls only when all other
lines are busy.
4. Set up the modem so it will answer incoming calls. Refer to the device's
documentation for instructions.
