Plug one end of the second telephone line cord for your TAD into the L2 jack of the
two-line TAD. Plug the other end into the EXT. jack on the back of the machine.
Triplex Adapter
Two Line External TAD
You can keep two-line telephones on other wall outlets as always. There are two ways
to add a two-line telephone to the FAX/MFC's wall outlet. You can plug the telephone
line cord from the two-line telephone into the L1+L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Or,
you can plug the two-line telephone into the TEL jack of the two-line TAD.
Multi-Line Connections (PBX)
Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively simple to
connect the FAX/MFC 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 FAX/MFC for you. It is advisable to have a separate line for the
FAX/MFC. You can then leave the FAX/MFC in FAX ONLY Mode to receive faxes
any time, day or night.
If the FAX/MFC is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask your installer to connect
the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the unit from being activated each
time a telephone call is received. (See Easy Receive, page 5-4.)
As with all fax units, this machine must be connected to a two wire system. If your
line has more than two wires, proper connection of the FAX/MFC cannot be made.
If you are installing the FAX/MFC to work with a PBX:
1
It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all circumstances with a
PBX. Any cases of difficulty should be reported first to the company that handles your
PBX.
2
If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is recommended
that the Answer Mode be set to MANUAL. All incoming calls should initially be
regarded as telephone calls.
3
The unit may be used with either pulse or tone dialing telephone service.
