Telephone Lines and Additional Devices

Configuring Telephone Lines and Services

PABX Systems

Private branch exchanges (PABX) are typical in many offices and some households. You must dial an outside line access code in order to get a connection to the public telephone network (PSTN) from a PABX.

External Device Not Extension

An additional telephone connected to the machine on a telephone socket is not considered an extension.

  1. Press OK, and OK.
  2. In some countries you can set the dialling process to pulse dialling or tone dialling (DTMF tones). Use to select the desired dialling process.

information Only use pulse dialling if tone dialling is not yet activated for your telephone line.

  1. Confirm with OK.
  2. Use to set whether you operate your device on an extension.
  3. Confirm with OK.
  4. Configuring an extension: Enter the outside line access code with which you reach the public telephone network. This is usually .

information In rare cases, the outside line access code may be a different number or a two-digit number. For older telephone systems, the outside line access code can be R (= Flash). Press R to enter this outside line access code. If the connexion to the public telephone network is not possible, contact your telephone system supplier.

  1. Confirm with OK.
  2. When finished, the device tests the telephone line. Confirm with OK.
  3. Your device checks whether it can establish a connection with the public telephone network. If it cannot establish the connection, you are once again asked for input.

DSL Connection

In the event that you use a DSL modem: Connect the machine after the modem. For additional information, please consult the operating manual of your DSL system.

ISDN Connection

Your device is an analogue fax device (Group 3). It is not an ISDN device (Group 4), and therefore it cannot be operated directly on an ISDN connection. In order to do this, you need either an analogue adapter or a connection for analogue terminals. Details for ISDN connections can be found in the instructions provided with the terminal adapter or the dial-up router.

Voice-Mailbox

You cannot simultaneously use the answering machine facility of your telephone service provider (= voice-mail box) and receive faxes on your devices. Get the mail-box function for your telephone connection deactivated or set the number of rings for the fax switch to lower than 5 on your device (also see Chapter Setting the Fax Switch). When the fax switch accepts the call, the mail-box of the service provider does not step in. Enquire with your telephone company.

Connecting Additional Devices

You can operate additional devices on a telephone line, such as cordless telephones, answering machines, modems or charge counters.

Connection to the Machine


You can connect additional devices directly to your device. Insert the telephone cable of the additional device into the EXT- socket (RJ-11-connection) on the device.

information We recommend direct connection to the device because this allows the fax switch to function optimally and to control the additional devices.

Connection to the Telephone Line

In order for the fax switch to function, the machine must be first in the series if multiple devices are connected to the same telephone socket. Follow the correct order.

information If you have multiple telephone sockets for the same telephone line, the machine must be connected to the first telephone socket.

With the Easylink function you can control your device with additional telephones. To use this function, additional telephones must be set to the tone dialling mode (DTMF/MFV tones) (for this purpose see the operating manual of your additional telephone).

Starting Fax Reception

If you pick up at an additional device and hear that you are receiving a fax (whistling tone or silence), you can start the fax reception by pressing on the additional telephone or pressing START on the device.

Taking Over the Line

If you pick up on an additional telephone and the machine continues to ring or attempts to receive a fax, you can disconnect the machine from the line. Press on the additional telephone.

Changing Code

warning Only change the codes if it is absolutely necessary. The codes must begin with or and must be different.

  1. Press OK, and OK.
  2. Enter the new code for starting fax reception.
  3. Confirm with OK.
  4. Enter the new code for taking over the line on an additional device.
  5. Confirm with OK.

Using an External Answering Machine

For the best operation, the answering machine must be connected to the EXT socket of the device. The number of rings set for the external answering machine should be less than the one set under FAX RINGS by at least two.

Example of the setting:

Number of rings of the external answering machine 1
FAX RINGS 3
TOTAL RINGS 5

(also see Chapter Setting the Fax Switch)

information The outgoing message should be shorter than ten seconds. Avoid music in the outgoing message.

If the external answering machine has a "conserving function" (i.e. a function that changes the number of rings as soon as new messages have been recorded), switch it off.
If the external answering machine records fax signals, but your device cannot receive faxes, inspect the connection of the external answering machine

Do not make any changes or settings that are not described in this user manual.

Setting Up the Machine

The device should rest securely on a stabile, flat surface. If the device should fall, it can be damaged or can cause injury to people, especially small children. Position all cables in such a way that no one will stumble on them, thus avoiding possible injuries to persons or damage to the device itself.
The distance between the device and other devices or objects must be at least 15 centimetres; this also applies to the use of additional cordless telephones. Do not place the device in the vicinity of radios or televisions.
Lock the cover of the device completely into place when opening the device. You could be injured if the cover falls while you are working on the device.
Protect the device against direct sunlight, heat, large temperature fluctuations and moisture. Do not place the device in the vicinity of heaters or air conditioners. Observe the information on temperature and humidity in the technical data.
burn hazard The device must have sufficient ventilation and may not be covered. Do not put your device in closed cabinets or boxes. Do not place the machine on soft surfaces such as tablecloths or carpets and do not cover the ventilation slits. Otherwise, the device can overheat and catch on fire.
burn hazard In the event that the device becomes too hot, or if you see smoke coming from the device, you must immediately pull the power cable out of the power socket. Have your device examined by trained professionals at a technical service location. To prevent the spread of fire, open flames should be kept away from the device.
Do not plug in the device in moist rooms. Never touch the mains cable, the mains connection or the telephone socket with wet hands.
Do not allow liquids to enter into the device. Disconnect the device from the power socket if liquids or foreign objects have entered the device and have your device examined by trained professionals at a technical service location.
Do not allow children to handle the device without supervision. The packing materials should be kept out of the hands of children.
The telephone handset of the device is magnetic.


Small metallic objects (paper clips) may be retained if placed near or on the telephone handset.

Power Supply

Check whether the mains voltage of your device (indicated on the type label) matches the mains voltage available at the setup location.
Use only the power and telephones cables supplied.
Set up your device so that the power socket is easily accessible. The device does not have an on/off button. In an emergency, disconnect your device from the power supply by pulling the power plug.
Never touch the power or telephone cable if the insulation is damaged.
Disconnect your device from the power and telephone networks during an electrical storm. If this is not possible, do not use the device during an electrical storm.
Before cleaning the surface of your device, disconnect it from the power and telephone networks. Never use liquid, gaseous or easily flammable cleansers (sprays, abrasives, polishes, alcohol).
Only clean the display with a dry, soft cloth. If the display breaks, a mildly corrosive liquid may escape. Avoid all contact with your skin and eyes.
In the event of a power failure, your device will not function; saved data is retained.

Repairs

Should disruptions occur, follow the instructions on the display and on the error report.
Do not make any repairs to the device yourself. Improper maintenance can result in injuries or damage to the device. Only have your device repaired by an authorised service centre.
