Chapter 6

Multi-line connections (PBX)

We suggest you ask the company who installed your PBX to connect your machine. If you have a multi-line system, we suggest you ask the installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the machine being activated each time the system receives telephone calls. If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, we recommend that you set the Receive Mode to Manual.

We cannot guarantee that your machine will operate correctly under all circumstances when connected to a PBX. Any difficulties with sending or receiving faxes should be reported first to the company who handles your PBX.
