MFC SETUP AND CONNECTIONS
Installing MFC, 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 MFC must be isolated on one line at
both the wall jack and at the TAD. The most common connection is to put
the MFC on Line 2. 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 MFC 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 the two-line telephone next to your
MFC.
Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your fax machine into the
L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the LINE jack on
the left side of the MFC.
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.

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 left side of the MFC.

You can keep two-line telephones on other wall outlets as always. There are
two ways to add a two-line telephone to the MFC’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.
