Dialing and storing numbers

Setting up your area code (USA only) 5

When returning calls from the Caller ID

history, your machine will dial “1” plus the

area code for all calls. If your local dialing plan

requires that “1” not be dialed for calls within

your area code, enter your area code in this

setting. With the area code setting, calls

returned from the Caller ID history to

numbers within your area code will be dialed

using 10 digits (area code + seven-digit

number). If your dialing plan does not follow

the standard 1 + area code + seven-digit

number dialing system for calling outside

your area code, you may experience

problems automatically returning calls from

the Caller ID history. If this is not the

procedure followed by your dialing plan, you

will not be able to automatically return calls.

Special line considerations 5

Roll-over telephone lines 5

A roll-over telephone system is a group of two

or more separate telephone lines that pass

incoming calls to each other if they are busy.

The calls are usually passed down or “rolled

over” to the next available telephone line in a

preset order.

Your machine can work in a roll-over system

as long as it is the last number in the

sequence so the call cannot roll away. Do not

put the machine on any of the other numbers;

when the other lines are busy and a second

fax call is received, the fax call will be sent to

a line that does not have a fax machine. Your

machine will work best on a dedicated

line.

Two-line telephone system 5

A two-line telephone system is simply two

separate telephone numbers on the same

wall outlet. The two telephone numbers can

be on separate jacks (RJ11) or mixed into

one jack (RJ14). Your machine must be

plugged into an RJ11 jack. RJ11 and RJ14

jacks may be equal in size and appearance

and both may contain four wires (black, red,

green and yellow). To test the type of jack,

plug in a two-line telephone and see if it can

access both lines. If it can, you must separate

the line for your machine.
