Prerequisite: Determining PBX Compatibility &
Configuration
To operate the FF200 FaxFinder system in conjunction with a PBX (“PBX Routing Mode”), that PBX
must
be able to route incoming calls to many PBX extension numbers to a single PBX station port. This
multiple-extension-to-single-port capacity allows multiple PBX users to have their own unique directory
numbers for receiving faxes.
If you are using the FF200 in conjunction with a PBX, be sure that the PBX has this multiple-extension-to-
single-port functionality and that it is activated. PBXs lacking this functionality can still be used with the
FaxFinder in POTS Mode.
