DSL Connection
In the event that you use a DSL modem: Connect the ma-
chine after the modem. For additional information, please
consult the operating manual of your DSL system.
ISDN Connection
ISDN Connecti on
Your device is an analogue fax device (Group 3). It is not
an ISDN device (Group 4), and therefore it cannot be op-
erated directly on an ISDN connection. In order to do this,
you need either an analogue adapter or a connection for
analogue terminals. Details for ISDN connections can be
found in the instructions provided with the terminal
adapter or the dial-up router.
Connecting Additional Devices

Order of Connections
In order for the fax switch to function, the machine must
be first in the series if multiple devices are connected to the
same telephone socket. Follow the correct order.
Multiple Telephone Sockets
Using Additional Telephones (Ea-
sylink)
Easylink
With the Easylink function you can control your device
with additional telephones. To use this function, addition-
al telephones must be set to the tone dialling mode (DT-
MF/MFV tones) (for this purpose see the operating man-
ual of your additional telephone).
Starting Fax Reception
If you pick up at an additional device and hear that you are
receiving a fax (whistling tone or silence), you can start the
fax reception by pressing *5 on the additional tele-
phone or pressing o on the device.
Taking Over the Line
If you pick up on an additional telephone and the machine
continues to ring or attempts to receive a fax, you can dis-
connect the machine from the line. Press ** on the
additional telephone.
In rare cases, the outside line access code may be
a different number or a two-digit number. For
older telephone systems, the outside line access
code can be R (= Flash). Press Rø to enter this
outside line access code. If the connection to the
public telephone network is not possible, contact
your telephone system supplier.
Once these settings are in place, you will no longer
need to prefix the outside line access code every time
you enter an external number. The device will auto-
matically add the outside line access code in front of
numbers that are the same length or longer than the
configured direct dial numbers.
If you are using a cordless telephone with SMS func-
tion on the same line, then the specific device at
which you will receive an SMS message will depend
on the specific manufacturer. Only one of the devices
will receive the SMS message. Try to turn off the
SMS reception on your cordless telephone.
We recommend direct connection to the device be-
cause this allows the fax switch to function optimally
and to control the additional devices.
If you have multiple telephone sockets for the same
telephone line, the machine must be connected to
the first telephone socket.
