European Directives User Guide Statement

The equipment has been approved to [Commission Decision"CTR21"] for pan-European single terminal connection to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). However, due to differences between the individual PSTNs provided in different countries, the approval does not, of itself, give an unconditional assurance of successful operation on every PSTN network termination point. In the event of problems, you should contact your equipment supplier in the first instance.

This equipment is designed with PSTN networks that accept analog signals. Multi-Tech does not currently know of any interoperating difficulties.

The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates only that Telecom has accepted that the item complies with minimum conditions for connection to its network. It indicates no endorsement of the product by Telecom, nor does it provide any sort of warranty. Above all, it provides no assurance that any item will work correctly in all respects with another item of Telepermitted equipment of a different make or model, nor does it imply that any product is compatible with all of Telecom’s network services.

This device is equipped with pulse dialing, while the Telecom standard is DTMF tone dialing. There is no guarantee that Telecom lines will always continue to support pulse dialing.

Use of pulse dialing, when this equipment is connected to the same line as other equipment, may give rise to ‘bell tinkle’ or noise and may also cause a false answer condition. Should such problems occur, the user should NOT contact the Telecom Faults Service.

The preferred method of dialing is to use DTMF tones, as this is faster than pulse (decadic) dialing and is readily available on almost all New Zealand telephone exchanges.

Warning Notice: No ‘111’ or other calls can be made from this device during a mains power failure.

This equipment may not provide for the effective hand-over of a call to another device connected to the same line.

Some parameters required for compliance with Telecom’s Telepermit requirements are dependent on the equipment (PC) associated with this device. In order to operate within the limits for compliance with Telecom’s Specifications, the associated equipment shall be set to ensure that calls are answered between 3 and 30 seconds of receipt of ringing.

If a charge for local calls is unacceptable, the “Dial” button should NOT be used for local calls. Only the 7-digits of the local number should be dialed from your telephone. DO NOT dial the area code digit or the “0” prefix.
