Connecting a phone or a doorline to the FAX port
This section extends the section „Connecting/Using other devices - connecting a fax machine
(ISDN)“ in the user guide for your Gigaset phone.
Instead of a fax machine you can connect an analogue telephone or a corded ana-
logue doorline interface device (Doorline Type 2) to the base via the FAX port.
1. Insert one end of the connection cable (6 pin with 2 mini western jacks 6/6) from
the rear into the recess in the housing of your phone.
2. Plug the jack into the fax port on the base (labelled:
FAX
).
3. Connect the connection cable to the port on the analogue phone/the doorline
intercom.
You do not explicitly have to register the device to the base. It is automatically "reg-
istered", once you have activated the FAX port on the base. The device is added to
the list of internal parties with the internal name
INT 8
. The internal number
8
can
not be changed.
When activating the FXS port you have to specify the type of device you want to
connect to the port.
