6.Connect Your Office Equipment - REQUIRED!

Setting .1

When you were installing the fax/phone line connector in Step 2, you may have noticed that two of the ports on the back of the connector were labelled, “To Phone, Answering Machine, or Modem.”

That means that either one of these ports can be used to connect any of these three types of devices you have in your office; the two ports are inter- changeable.

Connect other equipment to either of these two ports.

Up

Remove the plugs from the two ports. (If they’re stuck, use the tip of your pen to pry them out.) Then refer to the following instructions to connect your other equipment.

What should you connect?

Based on your particular office equipment and the number of telephone lines you have, there’s only ONE optimum way to connect.

Please answer the questions in the following table, circle your answers, then look up the appropriate setup scenario in the following “How should you connect?” section.
