Signaling method
: The unit’s
push-key dial allows it to signal in
tones (DTMF). It can complete calls
to local and long distance lines and
can also complete long distance calls
via computer-phone systems such as
MCI or SPRINT.
Ringer Equivalence Number
:
The FCC Registration label (on
bottom of phone), includes a Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN), which
is used to determine the number of
devices you may connect to your
phone line. A high total REN may
prevent phones from ringing in
response to an incoming call and may
make placing calls difficult. In most
areas, a total REN of 5 should permit
normal phone operation. To
determine the total REN allowed on
your telephone line, consult your
local telephone company.
Hearing aids
: The telephone is
compatible with hearing aids
equipped with an appropriate telecoil
option and is compliant with the
requirements for hearing aid
compatibility of the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA).
