Hardware Components
connected to a loop-start port programmed for dial dictation (similar to
loudspeaker paging). The UPAM does not support dial dictation equipment
requiring contact closure.
Fax Machine
A fax machine can be connected to any T/R jack on the control unit or to a
MFM. Using a fax machine with a GPA is not recommended because the fax
machine cannot auto dial through the GPA. Instructions are packed with the
unit.
A fax machine originates and receives fax calls independently of any
associated telephone. Calls are dialed with the fax machine's dialpad or from
an associated single-line telephone.
If the system doesn't have direct inward dialing (DID) trunks, fax stations should
be programmed to personal lines. When the system has DID service, incoming
calls can be directed automatically to individual fax stations or to machines in
calling groups.
NOTE:
A fax machine can also be considered a telephone adjunct, when used with
an MFM.
Announcements
Delay
delay announcement recording is used when there is a delay before an
A
incoming call is answered (such as with calling groups). Announcements can
be made with industry-standard announcement devices connected to a station
port on a 012 module or a 008 OPT module, or by an interface such as an MFM.
Telephone Adjuncts
Telephone adjuncts connect to a telephone directly or through an adapter.
Headsets and Headset Amplifiers
For hands-free operation of the telephone, four headsets are available:
StarSet Headset— a monaural headset worn without a headband. It
uses a one-size-fits-all soft, pliable ear tip that provides high-quality
sound yet allows you to hear other conversations or instructions in the
workplace.
Mirage Headset— a small, almost unnoticeable monaural headset that
uses a disk-shaped receiver. It can be worn on either ear, instead of a
headband or ear tip.
