Connecting an External

Telephone Answering Device (TAD)

Sequence

You might choose to connect an additional answering system. When you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the FAX/MFC, the TAD answers all calls. The FAX/MFC “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the FAX/MFC takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesn’t hear CNG tones, the FAX/MFC lets the TAD continue playing your outgoing message so your caller can leave you a voice message.

The TAD must answer within four rings. The FAX/MFC cannot hear CNG tones until the TAD has answered the call, and with four rings there are only 8– 10 seconds of CNG tones left for the fax “handshake.” Make sure you carefully follow the instructions in this manual for recording your outgoing message.

Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the same phone line—your FAX/MFC and TAD will both try to control the line.

Connections

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

EXT	.

LINE

1Plug the telephone line cord from the wall jack into the left side of the FAX/MFC, in the jack labeled LINE.

2Plug the telephone line cord from your TAD into the left side of the FAX/MFC, in the jack labeled EXT. (Make sure this cord is connected to the TAD at the

TAD’s telephone line jack, and not its telephone set jack.)
