Connecting Other Devices to the Phone Line

You can connect other devices to the same phone line as the SF-530
series product.
Deciding What to Connect
You have connected the SF-530 series to the wall jack. Generally, there
are three other devices that can be connected to the same phone line:
• a telephone
• an answering machine
• an external modem or a computer with an internal modem
Which, of these you connect to this phone line depends on your
configuration. Please see the following configurations.
Situation 1
You connected the SF-530 series to a wall jack with a phone
line for fax calls only (a dedicated fax line).
You do not need to connect any other devices. However:
• You can connect an external modem or a computer with an internal
modem to this phone line if you want to use the fax line to access the
Internet or e-mail.
• You can connect an extra telephone to this wall jack if you would like
to make outgoing voice calls.
To connect any of these devices to the same phone line, go to
"Connecting Other Devices, Overview" on page A.3. If you have another
wall jack for this phone line, you can connect the extra phone and/or
external modem or computer with internal modem to the other wall jack.
Note: Because this is a dedicated fax line, you should never have an
answering machine or computer connected. Or, using computer
voicemail, you must connect the computer with internal modem or
the external modem to your dedicated voice line. You will connect to
the Internet or e-mail using the dedicated voice line.
