ASSEMBLY 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, 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 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.
2
Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your MFC 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.
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 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.
