If you are operating the device within a PABX, use func-
tion 15 to set the device to the appropriate length for in-
ternal numbers and to set the code that must be dialled in
order to access a public telephone line (= Outside Line Ac-
cess Code).
1 Press OK, 15 and OK.
2 Using [ select PREFIX .
3 Confirm with OK.
4 Enter the appropriate length for internal numbers. Use
C to delete individual characters. Assume the longest
internal number, then add one digit to that. If your di-
rect dial numbers consist of four digits, then you should
input5.
5 Confirm with OK.
6 Enter the outside line access code with which you reach
the public telephone network. This is usually 0.
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 Rø to enter this
outside line access code. If the connection to the
public telephone network is not possible, contact
your telephone system supplier.

Outside Line Access Code
Once these settings are in place, you will no longer
need to prefix the outside line access code every time
you enter an external number. The device will auto-
matically add the outside line access code in front of
numbers that are the same length or longer than the
configured direct dial numbers.
Connecting Additional Devices
Additional Devices
You can operate other devices on a telephone line, for in-
stance cordless telephones, answering machines or mo-
dems.
If you use a cordless telephone with SMS function on
the same line, the handset number (sub-address) will
determine which terminal will receive the SMS.
