Selecting the Line Type
If you connect the product to a PBX (Private Branch Exchange) phone system or terminal adapter, you must change the product's line type. PBX is used in office environments where an external access code such as “9” must be dialed to call an outside line. The default Line Type setting is PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network), which is a standard phone line, similar to the one in your home.
