Getting Outside Line
PABX Systems
Private branch exchanges (PABX) are typical in many
offices and some households. You must dial an outside
line access code in order to get a connection to the
public telephone network (PSTN) from a PABX.
Inserting Outside Line Access Code
Enter the outside line access code with which you reach
the public telephone network before you enter the
desired number or select a stored entry. The outside
line access code is usually 0.
