Connection to the Device

You can connect additional devices directly to your de- vice. Insert the telephone cable of the additional device into the EXT socket (RJ-11-connection) on the device.

Direct Connection Recommended

We recommend direct connection to the de- vice because this allows the fax switch to func- tion optimally and to control the additional devices.

Connection to the Telephone Line

In order for the fax switch to function, the device must be first in the series if multiple devices are connected to the same telephone socket. Follow the correct order.

Connection to the First Telephone

Socket

If you have multiple telephone sockets for the same telephone line, the device must be con- nected to the first telephone socket.

Using Additional Telephones (Easylink)

With the Easylink function you can control your device with additional telephones. To use this function, addi- tional telephones must be set to the tone dialling mode (DTMF/MFV tones) (for this purpose see the operating manual of your additional telephone).

Starting Fax Reception

If you pick up at an additional device and hear that you are receiving a fax (whistling tone or silence), you can start the fax reception by pressing *5 on the addi- tional telephone or pressing o on the device.

Taking Over the Line

If you pick up on an additional telephone and the device continues to ring or attempts to receive a fax, you can disconnect the device from the line. Press ** on the additional telephone.

Changing Code

CAUTION!

Changing Easylink Codes!

Only change the codes if it is absolutely neces- sary. The codes must begin with * or # and must be different.

1.Press OK, 54 and OK.

2.Enter the new code for starting fax reception.

3.Confirm with OK.

4.Enter the new code for taking over the line on an additional device.

5.Confirm with OK.

Using an External Answering Machine

For the best operation, the answering machine must be connected to the EXT socket of the device. The num- bers of rings set for the external answering machine should be less than the one set under FAX RINGS by at least two.

Example of the setting:

Number of Rings of the External Answering Machine 1

FAX RINGS3

(see also chapter Setting the Fax Switch, page 29)

External Answering Machine

The outgoing message must be shorter than ten seconds. Avoid music in your announcement.

If the external answering machine has a “conserving function” (i.e. a function that changes the number of rings as soon as new messages have been recorded), switch it off.

If the external answering machine records fax signals, but your device cannot receive faxes, inspect the con- nection of the external answering machine.
