LINESHARE PRO

“Hello, this is ________ . If you want

to send a fax, press # 2 2 on your tone phone, or leave a message at the tone.”

(In this application, your fax should be connected to Port 2.)

You can also announce the tone access code for Port 3 or Port 4 (# 3 3 or # 4 4) if you want to allow open access to these ports. (The Inbound Tone Transfer Feature must be turned on for this transfer to function.)

To accommodate pulse-dialing faxes, or faxes that do not produce CNG tones, turn the Answer/Disconnect Cascade feature ON for the port where your TAD is connected (primary default port) to transfer calls to the port where your fax is connected.

NOTE

Port selection for the Answer/Disconnect Cascade feature can be set to any port. The factory default setting is OFF for any device disconnecting from a call. To change the default setting, see Answer/Disconnect Cascade in Section 5.4.

4.6Retrieving TAD Messages from a Remote Location

To disable the Lineshare Pro and retrieve your TAD messages, follow these steps:

Dial your phone number and wait for the Lineshare Pro to answer the call.

After the Lineshare Pro has answered the call, but before your TAD answers, press the * key on your tone phone between ring signals.

When your TAD answers, follow the remote retrieval procedures for your TAD.

After retrieving your messages, hang up. The Lineshare Pro resets for the next call.

4.7 Placing an Outbound Call

You can place an outbound call from any port, unless another port is in use. If another port is in use, you will hear a busy tone. If the line is clear when the calling device goes off- hook, you receive a dial tone and can place the call normally.

NOTE

If you place a call from an extension phone that is not directly connected to the Lineshare Pro, you may interrupt a data transmission in progress on one of the ports. If this happens, simply hang up the extension phone and wait for the line to clear.
