RCA 25205 manual Data Port, Wall Mounting the Phone

Connections and Setup

Data Port

This phone has a DATA PORT jack to connect an auxiliary phone device, such as a fax machine, computer modem, answering system, or even a cordless phone.

The DATA PORT switch on the back of the phone controls the DATA PORT jack so you can choose line 1 or line 2.

Use the DATA PORT jack to hook up your fax machine, for example, and then set the DATA PORT switch to 2 in order to receive faxes on the phone number for line 2.

If you are talking to someone on line 2 and want them to fax something to you, change the DATA PORT switch to 1 and give him the phone number for line 1. Your fax machine can now receive calls on line 1.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to switch the fax machine back to the normal line when you are done because outside callers who may not know that you have multiple lines will not be able to reach your fax machine if they dial the normal fax line.
