You can keep two-line telephones on other
wall outlets as always. There are two ways to
add a two-line telephone to the machine's
wall outlet. You can plug the telephone line
cord from the two-line telephone into the
L1+L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Or you can
plug the two-line telephone into the TEL jack
of the two-line TAD.
Multi-line connections (PBX)
6
Most offices use a central telephone system.
While it is often relatively simple to connect
the machine to a key system or a PBX
(Private Branch Exchange), we suggest that
you contact the company that installed your
telephone system and ask them to connect
the machine for you. It is advisable to have a
separate line for the machine.
If the machine is to be connected to a multi-
line system, ask your installer to connect the
unit to the last line on the system. This
prevents the unit from being activated each
time a telephone call is received.

work with a PBX

It is not guaranteed that the unit will work
properly under all circumstances with a
PBX. Report any cases of problems first
to the company that handles your PBX.
b
If all incoming calls will be answered by
a switchboard operator, we recommend
setting the Receive Mode to
Manual
. All
incoming calls should at first be
regarded as telephone calls.
Custom features on your
phone line
6
If you have Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call
Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, an answering
service, an alarm system or any other custom
feature on one phone line it may create a
problem with the operation of your machine.
(See
are having difficulty with your machine
page 106.)
Using a cordless phone
6
If your cordless telephone is connected to the
EXT. jack of the machine and you typically
carry the cordless handset elsewhere, it is
easier to answer calls during the Ring Delay.
If you let the machine answer first, you will
have to go to the machine so you can press
Hook
to send the call to the cordless handset.
