Multi-Line connections (PABX)
Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often
relatively simple to connect the fax machine to a key system or a
PABX (Private Automatic Branch Exchange), we suggest that you
contact the company that installed your telephone system and ask
them to connect the fax machine for you. We recommended all our
fax machines be connected to a discreet line. Although same fax
machines will work with a particular PABX, we cannot guarantee
that the unit will operate properly.
If the fax machine is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask
your installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This
prevents the unit from being activated each time a telephone call is
received.

It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all
circumstances with a PABX. Any cases of difficulty should be
reported first to the company that handles your PABX.

If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard
operator, it is recommended that the Receive Mode be set to
MANUAL. All incoming calls should initially be regarded as
telephone calls.
