Multi-Line Connections (PBX)
Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively
simple to connect the 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 MFC for you. It is advisable
to have a separate line for the MFC. You can then leave the MFC in FAX
mode to receive faxes any time of day or night.
If the 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.
As with all fax units, this MFC must be connected to a two wire system.
If your line has more than two wires, proper connection of the MFC
cannot be made.
If you are installing the 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 MFC may be used with either pulse or tone dialing telephone service.
