ISDN Connection

Your device is an analogue fax device (Group 3). It is not an ISDN device (Group 4), and therefore it cannot be operated directly on an ISDN connection. In order to do this, you need either an analogue adapter or a connection for analogue terminals. Details for ISDN connections can be found in the instructions provided with the terminal adapter or the dial-up router.

You cannot simultaneously use the answering machine facility of your telephone service provider (= voice-mail box) and receive faxes on your devices. Get the mail-box function for your telephone connection deactivated or set the number of rings for the fax switch to lower than 5 on your device (also see Chapter Setting the Fax Switch, page 28). When the fax switch accepts the call, the mail-box of the service provider does not step in. Enquire with your telephone company.
