LINESHARE MASTER
4. Using the Lineshare Master
Setting the Calling Tones
By dialing the * key and one of the
eight (8) allowable digits at the end
of a dialing string, you can set the
Lineshare Master to produce the
following calling tones:
0 = 1000hz tone
1 = 1100hz tone (typically fax
CNG tone)
2 = 1200hz tone
3 = 1300hz tone
4 = 1400hz tone
5 = 1500hz tone
6 = 1600hz tone
7 = 2225hz tone (typically
Reverse Modem tone)
The factory setting is 2225hz with
the unit turned ON.
If all calls from this system are to
transmit the same calling tone, it is
not necessary to enter the * after
each telephone number. The
Lineshare Master retains the
previous command in memory and
will send the same tone on every call.
If power fails, the Lineshare Master
will maintain the previous settings
once power is restored.
When a device dials a tone phone
number through the Lineshare
Master, the unit starts a two second
timer each time it detects a tone.
This continues until the two second
timer expires without detecting a
tone. The Lineshare Master then
places the calling device connected
to the PRIMARY port on hold. It
then begins to transmit a series of
calling tones (the frequency of the
tone depends on user settings). If
the Lineshare Master detects an
answer carrier from a fax or modem,
it immediately stops transmitting the
calling tones, and releases the line to
the calling device.
You can turn the Lineshare Master
ON or OFF using tone commands.
To turn the Lineshare Master ON,
press # *. Once you enter the # *
command, the Lineshare Master’s
timing registers are activated. To
turn the Lineshare Master OFF,
press # #.
You can also use tone commands
in the following ways:
• to enter the programming mode
• to set calling tones
• to set timing registers
• to use the Call Hold function
• to reset factory settings
