Connect the fax machine as the first device to the line and the
home telephone system (HTS) like an additional device as
second.
There are no regulations for home telephone systems.
Therefore we cannot provide you with generally valid
operating rules. Refer to the operating instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
Tone or pulse dialling / private branch exchange (PABX)
In function 15 you can select either tone and pulse dialling and whether or not you are connected to a private branch
exchange.
Private branch exchange systems are very common in large companies. They provide a kind of internal telephone
network. In order to connect to the public network you must first dial an outside line.
Your phone can dial in two different ways. Older telephone systems usually work with pulse dialling whilst modern, digital
systems use tone dialling. You can change the dialling mode of your fax machine. If you do not know which method your
line uses, contact your telephone company.
If you cannot establish the desired telephone or fax connection to the called party,
select a different dialling mode.
You can connect additional devices to separate sockets on the same
line even if they are in different rooms. Make sure that the fax machine
is the first device connected.
Please note: If you connect additional devices to separate sockets
(e.g. in separate rooms) your active fax switch cannot control them
(which means that your fax machine behaves like any ordinary fax
machine). For this reason e.g. call transfer is not possible. Therefore
we recommend you to connect your additional devices to the same
socket.
Connecting to a
private branch exchange
(several PTT lines)
Connect the fax machine to an extension line of the
private branch exchange (PABX). In order to operate
your fax machine on an extension, you need to enter
the appropriate settings in function 15.
