Multi-Line Connections (PABXs)

Most offices use a central telephone system, or PABX. The MFC will work with most PABX or key systems that allow a two-wire analogue connection. However, we recommend that you have a separate telephone line for your MFC. You can then leave the MFC in Fax Mode to receive faxes any time of day or night.

If you are installing the MFC to work with a PABX:

1It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all circumstances with a PABX. Any cases of difficulty should be reported first to the company that handles your PABX.

2If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is recommended that the Answer Mode be set to Manual. All incoming calls should initially be regarded as telephone calls.

3The unit may be used with either pulse or tone dialling telephone service.
