#22 for Port 2, # 33 for Port 3, or

#44 for Port 4. To use this feature, you must first turn Outbound Tone Transfer ON. (See Section 5.4 for more information.)

4.8 Emergency Call Override

NOTE

This feature works in conjunction with the three- way calling service provided by the phone company. Three-way calling must be installed and in service on the phone line connected to the Lineshare Pro in order to interrupt a call and place an outbound emergency call.

When the Lineshare Pro is on line with a fax or data call through Port 2, Port 3, or Port 4, this feature allows a device connected to PORT 1 to disable the call. This feature is factory-preset OFF and must be turned ON in order to function.

When set to ON, this feature has two modes of operation as follows:

•In the Automatic mode of operation, the Lineshare Pro will interrupt a call already in process on Port 2, Port 3, or Port 4 if a phone device goes off-hook in PORT 1. When you take your phone off-hook for an emergency call, you will hear a four-second busy signal, a click, and then dial tone. Once you hear dial tone, you can dial your emergency number. If you do not receive dial tone after about five seconds, repeat the procedure.

•In the Manual mode of operation, the Lineshare Pro will interrupt a call already in process on Port 2, Port 3, or Port 4 if a phone device goes off-hook in PORT 1 and the * key is pressed. When you take your phone off-hook for an emergency call, you will hear a busy signal. If you want access to the line, press the * key. You then hear a click and dial tone. Once you hear dial tone, you can dial your emergency number. If you do not receive dial tone after about three seconds, hang up the phone and repeat the procedure.

To change the setting of this feature, see Section 5.4.
