The Fax Switch

The Fax Switch feature allows you to have two telephone numbers on one incoming line. There is one telephone number for the line and another telephone number for a Fax Switch peripheral (e.g. fax machine).

To use the Fax Switch, you must subscribe to your telephone company for Distinctive Ringing†. The telephone company will then provide you with an additional telephone number (for your Fax Switch peripheral) which will have a slightly different ring. The 9516CW will use the two ring types to determine whether an incoming call is for the tele- phone or the peripheral. The peripheral should be set to answer after three or more rings.

Note: If Long Distance Ringing† is available in your area, long distance calls will be sent to the Fax Switch peripheral. Also, you cannot use the Fax Switch feature and the Special Greeting feature at the same time.

The 9516CW must be configured so the Fax Switch peripheral is connected to pins 3 and 4

of jack number 2. See Connecting an optional fax machine or modem on page 4 for more information.

Note: If you subscribe to your telephone company for Call Waiting services, your Fax Switch peripheral may lose data or get disconnected if someone calls while your fax is receiving data. We recommend that you do not subscribe to the Call Waiting service from your telephone company if you are using the Fax Switch feature.

Incoming Calls

The first ring of an incoming call will ring at the 9516CW and the Fax Sw tch p ripheral. The 9516CW uses this ring to identify which device the call is in ded for. If it is a nor- mal ring, the call is routed to the 9516CW and the Fax Switch peripheral stops ringing and is disconnected. If it is a distinctive ring, the call is rerouted to the Fax Sw tch p ripheral and the 9516CW stops ringing.

Outgoing Calls

When the Fax Switch peripheral is idle, the 9516CW can be used as a normal line. When the Fax Switch peripheral is in use, the set indicator light and Extensioninuseappears on the display.
