DESCRIPTION
Auto-Connect is a multi-functional Line Sharer which is designed to
allow TWO separate telephone devices to share a single telephone line.
Under normal circumstances, only ONE device will answer incoming
calls. BOTH attached devices will be able to make out going calls.
Auto-Connect provides an EXCLUSION FACILITY for the two devices
attached to it. This means that if one device is in operation, the other
device will not be able to access the telephone line (‘Barge-In’).
Four Micro Dip Switches are located on the underside of the unit and are
used to your set your Auto-Connect to perform special functions:
1) RING DELAY FUNCTION (refer to page 5)
Auto-Connect provides a facility where an incoming call can be directed
to the ACCESSORY DEVICE after a user selectable number of rings (4,
6 or 8 rings), if the call is not answered by the PRIMARY DEVICE.
2) EFT-POS FUNCTION (refer to page 6)
Auto-Connect provides a facility which will allow an EFT-POS device to
be shared on an existing telephone line.
3) PABX PHONE SYSTEM FUNCTION (refer to page 6)
Auto-Connect can be used to connect an Answering Machine, Fax
Machine, Modem, EFT-POS, Payphone, Automatic Dialler or ANY other
telephone device to ANY PABX, Commander or Multi Line Telephone
System.
4) MULTIPLE NUMBER FUNCTION (refer to page 7)
Auto-Connect has the ability to operate with the new Telstra Multiple
Number service, where a second telephone number, associated with a
different incoming ring can be used on the same telephone line. Auto-
Connect can be set to analyse the FIRST RING of all incoming calls
and then switch the incoming call to the PRIMARY DEVICE PORT if the
call is for your Normal Number or to the ACCESSORY DEVICE port if the
call is for your Multiple Number.
