ATTENTION
Some commercial phone systems use digital lines that may damage the meter. Like the meter, most fax machines, credit card readers and modems also require analog lines. The meter can share a line with these devices. When in doubt, ask the person responsible for your phone systems.
Connect the phone cord to the meter and the other end to an analog phone line.
The following are usually analog lines:
•Fax lines
•Lines used by modems or credit card readers
•Residential phone lines
If you are using a DSL line you should use a DSL filter obtained from your DSL provider.
Note: For printing postage, the meter does not have to be connected to a phone line. However, if you add funds frequently, we recommend you keep it connected to an analog phone line.
