USER INSTRUCTIONS (For U.K. Users)
These facsimiles are approved for connection to the British Telecom public switched telecommunication
systems in accordance with the British telecommunication Act of 1984. The usage should be subject
to the condition set out in these instructions. Any other usage will INVALIDATE this approval.
1. The approval of this facsimile for connection to the public switched telephone network (PSTN) is
invalidated if the facsimile is used with or connected to:
(i) internal software that has not been formally accepted by BABT
(ii) external control software or external control apparatus which causes the operation of the facsimi-
les to contravene BABT requirement.
2. This facsimile is approved for the use of the following facilities: Tone Dialing (DTMF).
Automatic Clearing.
Automatic answering (Facsimile with auto answer to ITU-T T. 30).
Last Number Redial
Automatic call initiation.
Automatic dialing facilities.
Automatic multiple repeat dial attempts.
Series connection for 'Off Hook' detection.
Memory dialing.
Any other usage will INVALIDATE the approval of the apparatus if as a result it then ceases to con-
form to the standard against which approval was granted.
3. This facsimile is suitable for connection to exchange lines on PSTN directly or via a compatible pri-
vate branch exchange.
4. It cannot be guaranteed that the facsimile will operate under all possible conditions of connection to
compatible PBXs. Any cases of difficulty should be referred in the first instance to the supplier of the
apparatus.
5. Connection to PSTN must not be hardwired.
The connection to PSTN must be disconnected before the mains plug is removed.
6. The facsimile may be used on PSTN employing Loop disconnect or MF signalling. However, please
note as folows:
Although the facsimile can use either Loop disconnect or DTMF signaling, only the performance of
the DTMF signaling is subject to regulatory requirements for correct operation. It is therefore
strongly recommended that the facsimile is set to use DTMF signaling for access to public or private
emergency services if it is used with a telephone. DTMF signaling also provides faster call set up.
7. Ringer Equivalent Number (REN) for the facsimile is 3.
The REN relates to the performance of the facsimile when used in parallel with other items of termi-
nal equipment. The REN is a customer guide indicating approximately the maximum number of
equipment that should be connected in parallel simultaneously to the line.
To determine the maximum number of items that can be connected in parallel simultaneously to an
exclusive line, please add the REN values of each item connected to the exclusive line. The sum
should not exceed the maximum REN value of 4. For the purposes of the calculation, the REN of a
terminal equipment rented or brought from BT plc. should be assumed to be REN of 3.0 unless other-
wise specified.
8. When other telephone apparatus is connected in parallel with the facsimile, it must be set on Tone
dialing (DTMF) mode only.
9. When connecting a telephone onto the same line or PBX extension as this facsimile, the serial socket
on the LJU unit (on the unit cord) must be used.
