What kind of telephone line?
You need a standard analog telephone line with either pulse or tone
dialing. If you plan to use the Uniphone 1140 in an office, the line
may need modification because many offices have
digital telephone systems. Contact your telephone installer to
ensure your line supports a standard single-line telephone. This is
the same kind of line you need for many fax machines or computer
modems.
Connecting a signaler light
If you want to use a signaler light with the Uniphone 1140, plug
the signaler light into an unused extension telephone wall jack. If
you only have one telephone wall jack in your house or office, use a
Y-jack (also called a duplex jack) to plug both the Uniphone 1140
and the signaler light into the same wall jack. You can buy a Y-jack
at any telephone store.
Setting pulse or tone dialing
The Uniphone 1140 is set for tone dialing. If your line uses pulse
dialing, set the dial switch on the back of the Uniphone 1140 to
PULSE. You can temporarily switch to TONE during a call to
access services that require tone signals. After the call, switch back
to PULSE. Contact your telephone company if you are not sure
about your telephone line dial setting.
About the help key
The help key allows you to read information on the display about a
feature that has brackets around it. For example, press the
key. You will see the main menu with the brackets around
FASTDIAL. Hold down the
key to read information about the
Fastdial feature—you do not need to press the
key. Release the
key when you finish reading.
