Installing Brother Machine, External Two-Line TAD, and Two-Line
Telephone
When you are installing an external two-line telephone answering device (TAD) and
a two-line telephone, your machine must be isolated on one line at both the wall jack
and at the TAD. The most common connection is to put the Brother machine on Line
2, which is our assumption in the following steps. The back of the two-line TAD must
have two telephone jacks: one labeled L1 or L1/L2, and the other labeled L2. You will
need at least three telephone line cords, the one that came with your machine and two
for your external two-line TAD. You will need a fourth line cord if you add a two-line
telephone.
1
Place the two-line TAD and two-line telephone next to your Brother machine.
2
Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your machine into the L2 jack of the triplex
adapter. Plug the other end into the LINE jack on the back of the machine.
3
Plug one end of the first telephone line cord for your TAD into the L1 jack of the
triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the L1 or L1/L2 jack of the two-line TAD.
4
Plug one end of the second telephone line cord for your TAD into the L2 jack of the
two-line TAD. Plug the other end into the EXT. jack on the back of the machine.
You can keep two-line telephones on other wall outlets as always. There are two ways
to add a two-line telephone to the fax machine’s wall outlet. You can plug the
telephone line cord from the two-line telephone into the L1+L2 jack of the triplex
adapter. Or, you can plug the two-line telephone into the TEL jack of the two-line
TAD.
