Connecting a fax machine
(ISDN)
You can connect an ITU-T Group 3 fax
machine to the base via the FAX port.
1. Insert one end of the fax connection ca-
ble from the rear into the recess in the
housing.
2. Plug the jack into the fax port on the base
(labelled:
FAX
).
3. Connect the fax connection cable to the
port on the fax machine.
You do not explicitly have to register the fax
machine to the base. It is automatically "reg-
istered", once you activate the FAX port on
the base (
, default setting is
"off").
Once the FAX port is switched on, the fax
machine is added to the list of internal par-
ties with the internal name
INT 8
.
The fax machine is assigned all of the base's
ISDN numbers as receive connections.
The first number from the configuration is
assigned as a send connection. You can
change the assignment
Please note
When connecting a multifunction device
(fax/phone) to the FAX port, you must
observe the following:
u
There is no ringing tone when you
pick up.
u
CLIP
is not supported
for incoming calls.
u
If the answering machine takes a call
on the device's receive connection, it
continues to ring.
u
If the device's receive connection is
assigned neither to the base nor a
handset, calls are not transferred to
the call lists.
u
Internal functions such as "internal
consultation call during an external
call" or "internal transfer" are not sup-
ported.

Please note
If a number is only assigned to the fax
machine as a receive connection, then
calls to this number will not be entered in
the call lists (it is not possible to read the
entries from the base or a handset).
