Pre-Installation Requirements for Canon Facsimile
Equipment
A. Location
Supply a suitable table, cabinet, or desk. See the Reference Guide for the machine's dimensions and weight.
B. Order Information
1. Only a single line, touch-tone or rotary telephone set is to be used.
2. Order an RJ11-C modular jack (USOC code), which should be installed by the telephone company. If the
RJ11-C jack is not present, installation cannot occur.
3. Order a normal business line from your telephone company's business representative. The line should be a
regular voice grade line or the equivalent. Use one line per machine.
DDD (DIRECT DISTANCE DIAL) LINE
-or-
IDDD (INTERNATIONAL DIRECT DISTANCE DIAL) LINE IF YOU COMMUNICATE OVERSEAS
• Canon recommends an individual line following industry standards, e.g., the 2500 (Touch Tone) or 500
NOTE
(Rotary/Pulse Dial) telephones. A dedicated extension off a PBX unit without "Call Waiting" can be
used with MultiPASS F50. Key telephone systems are not recommended because they send non-standard
signals to individual telephones for ringing and special codes, which may cause a fax error.
C. Power Requirements
This equipment should be connected to a standard 120-volt AC, three-wire grounded outlet only. Do not connect
this machine to an outlet or power line shared with other appliances that cause "electrical noise." Air conditioners,
electric typewriters, copiers, and machines of this sort generate electrical noise which often interferes with
communications equipment and the sending and receiving of documents.
Connection of the Equipment
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the rear panel of this equipment is a label that
contains, among other information, the FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this
equipment. If requested, this information must be given to the telephone company. This equipment may not be
used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs.
An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular jack are provided with this equipment. This equipment is designed
to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible modular jack which is Part 68
compliant. See Installation instructions for details.
The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive
RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not
all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be
connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the telephone company to determine the maximum
REN for the calling area.
