DSL Connection
DSL Connection
In the event that you use a DSL modem: Connect the
device to the slot intended for analogue telephones/fax
machines! For additional information, please consult the
operating manual of your DSL system. Ask your tele-
phone or internet service provider if necessary.
ISDN Connection
ISDN Connection
Your device is an analogue fax device (Group 3). It is not
an ISDN device (Group 4), and therefore it cannot be
operated directly on an ISDN connection. In order to
do this, you need either an analogue adapter or a con-
nection for analogue terminals. Details for ISDN con-
nections can be found in the instructions provided with
the terminal adapter or the dial-up router.
Voice Mailbox
You cannot simultaneously use the answering machine
facility of your telephone service provider (= voice-mail
box) and receive faxes on your devices. Get the mail-
box function for your telephone line deactivated or set
the number of rings for the fax switch to lower than 5
on your device (see also chapter Setting the Fax Switch,
page 29). When the fax switch accepts the call, the mail-
box of the service provider does not step in. Enquire
with your telephone company.

Additional Telephone No Extension
An additional telephone connected to the de-
vice on a telephone socket is not considered an
extension.
Selecting the Dialling Process
Only use pulse dialling if tone dialling is not
yet activated for your telephone line.
Incorrect Outside Line Access Code
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 R to enter this outside line access
code. If the connection to the public tele-
phone network is not possible, contact your
telephone system supplier.
SMS Reception with Additional
Telephone
If you are using cordless telephone with SMS
function on the same connection, then the spe-
cific device at which you will receive and SMS
message will depend on the specific manufactur-
er. Only one of the devices will receive the SMS
message. Try to turn off the SMS reception on
your cordless telephone.
