Receiving Calls
Receiving calls on a telephone connected to the SAU-1900E is identical to
receiving calls on a standard wire-line service. When a telephone that is connected to the
SAU-1900E rings, simply follow the telephone’s instructions for receiving a call.
Advanced Features
Your service provider may support other features such as CALLER ID, CALL
WAITING, CALL FORWARDING, 3-WAY CALLING and other similar features. If
you are interested in using these features contact your service provider for details.
DATA COMMUNICATIONS/MODEMS/FAXES/ETC.
Your SAU-1900E will provide quality voice communications, but it will not
support data communications, such as using an analog modem or facsimile machine
(“fax” machine). If you need these types of services, contact your service provider or
dealer about the MDL-1 Analog Fax/Data Service option for your SAU-1900E.
THE BATTERY, AND WHEN TO REPLACE IT
Your SAU-1900E comes with a sealed lead-acid battery for supplying backup
power in the event of an outage, or brownout, of normal AC power. Under normal usage
conditions your battery can be used for up to four years. The battery allows you to place
or receive a call even after AC power has been lost for a short time (known as backup
time). The actual backup time will vary with the age of the battery, how many times it
has been charged and discharged, and distance from the telephone service provider’s RF
transmitter/receiver. However, you should consider replacing the battery if any one or
more of the following occurs:
1. The battery is older than fours years.
2. While AC power is removed from the SAU-1900E (by unplugging the AC power
supply from the wall outlet), the battery indicator does not blink every 2-3 seconds.
3. No sound can be heard out of a telephone connected to the SAU-1900E when the AC
power supply adapter is not powered (by unplugging the AC power supply from the
wall outlet).
