HOW Works

Congratulations! You have purchased the highest quality voice/fax/modem call processor in the industry-The Stick! This manual has been designed to get you, your communications devices and The Stick operating on the phone line with a minimal amount of work. Please read this manual carefully and BE SURE TO FILL OUT AND MAIL YOUR WARRANTY CARD!

When installed on a phone line, The Stick automatically answers all inbound calls and “screens” for fax tones (CNG-CalliNG tones) and Security Access Codes (in the form of DTMF/touch tones).

While performing the “screening” function for both types of tones The Stick is transmitting phone company-simulated “ringback”

tones to the calling party. After the screening function is performed, the call is routed to the proper device.
