Connecting to a PBX

Connecting to a PBX
A PBX (Private Branch Exchange) is a private telephone system used to route internal calls. If you
have to dial an access number to get an outside line, then your line is connected to a PBX.
If you are connecting your fax machine to a PBX, follow the instructions below. These setting
changes allow your fax machine to identify your PBXs outside line access digits in the numbers
that you program or dial in your fax machine. After it dials the access digits, your fax machine will
wait until it sees that the outside line is available before dialing the rest of the number.
Warning:
In some countries you may require service assistance to make these changes. Also, some PBX
installations may require additional adjustments to your fax machine. If you continue to have
difficulty with fax communication after following these steps, contact your dealer.
