Connections

The external TAD must be plugged into the left of the fax machine, into the jack labeled EXT. Your fax machine cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack.

1 Plug the telephone line cord from the wall jack into the left side of the fax machine, in the jack labeled LINE.

2 Plug the telephone line cord from your TAD into the left side of the fax machine, in the jack labeled EXT. (Make sure this cord is connected to the TAD at the TAD’s telephone line jack (not to telephone set jack).)

3 Set your external TAD to four rings or less. (The fax machine’s Ring Delay setting does not apply.)

Outgoing Message (OGM) on an External TAD

Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.

1 Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows your fax machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.)

Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.

End your 20-second message by giving your Fax Receive Code for people sending manual faxes. For example:

“After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing 5 1 and Start.”

Connecting an External Telephone

Your fax machine is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular phone. However, you can also connect a separate telephone (or TAD) directly to your fax machine.

Connect the modular plug on the telephone’s line cord to the jack labeled EXT. on the left side of the fax machine.

Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the LCD shows EXT. TEL IN USE, and, if the fax machine handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To disconnect the call and switch to the fax machine, press Speaker phone.
