PABX Systems
PABX Systems
Private branch exchanges (PABX) are typical in many
offices and some households. You must dial an outside
line access code in order to get a connection to the
public telephone network (PSTN) from a PABX.
1 Press OK, 96 and OK.
2 Use [ to set whether you operate your device on
an extension.
3 Confirm with OK.
4 Configuring an extension: Enter the outside line
access code with which you reach the public tele-
phone 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 R to
enter this outside line access code. If the con-
nexion to the public telephone network is not
possible, contact your telephone system suppli-
er.
5 Confirm with OK.
6 When finished, the machine tests the telephone
line. Confirm with OK.
7 Your device checks whether it can establish a con-
nection with the public telephone network. If it
cannot establish the connection, you are once again
asked for input.
PhoneMail
You cannot simultaneously use the PhoneMail function
and receive faxes on your devices. Get the PhoneMail
function for your telephone connection deactivated.
Connecting Additional Devices
Additional Devices
You can operate other devices on a telephone line, for
instance cordless telephones, answering machines or
modems.
If you use a cordless telephone with SMS func-
tion on the same line, the handset number (sub-
address) will determine which terminal will re-
ceive the SMS.
Connection to the device
Connection to the device
You can connect additional devices directly to your
device. Insert the telephone cable of the additional de-
vice into the EXT- socket (RJ-11-connection) on the
device.

Connecting in Serial
We recommend direct connection to the machine
because this allows the fax switch to function op-
timally and to control the additional devices.
Connection to the Telephone Line
Order of Connections
In order for the fax switch to function, the machine
must be first in the series if multiple devices are con-
nected to the same telephone socket. Follow the cor-
rect order.
Multiple Telephone Sockets
If you have multiple telephone sockets for the
same telephone line, the machine must be con-
nected to the first telephone socket.
Using Additional Telephones (Ea-
sylink)
Easylink
With the Easylink function you can control your de-
vice with additional telephones. To use this function,
additional telephones must be set to tone dialling (DT-
MF tones).
Starting Fax Reception
If you pick up at an additional device and hear that
you are receiving a fax (whistling tone or silence), you
can start the fax reception by pressing *5 on the
additional telephone or pressing o on the device.
Taking Over the Line
If you pick up on an additional telephone and the
machine continues to ring or attempts to receive a fax,
you can disconnect the machine from the line. Press
** on the additional telephone.
