Basic. This setting is used to dial and answer calls from an analog multiline telephone or to attach a T/R adjunct such as a single-line telephone or answering machine. Incoming calls ring only on the analog multiline telephone. This setting also allows the user to originate and receive calls on the telephone while using a computer with a modem that is attached to the GPA. However, if this setting is used, data calls cannot be answered automatically.

Join. This setting is used to add a recording device or a single-line telephone to a call that is in progress on the telephone. You cannot originate or answer calls on this setting,

Automatic. Use this setting when a GPA connects a modem to an analog multiline telephone for answering calls or answering machine.

Dial Dictation Devices

You can connect a dial dictation device to one of the following, as described earlier in this chapter:

■012 module

■MLX telephone with an MFM

■GPA and analog multiline telephone

You can also connect a dial dictation device through a commercially available trunk adapter or a Universal Paging Access Module (UPAM) on a loop-start line/trunk jack with an external power supply unit.

NOTE:

Using any of the devices listed above, you cannot connect dial dictation devices that require contact closure. You can connect such equipment through a UPAM, however, since it provides contact closure for the device.
