4. Connecting the Telephone Cables
4a. To Connect Directly to your PSTN / Telephone Line:
Using the Black BT Cable (RJ11 to BT) connect the small plug (RJ11) into the PSTN socket on the back
of the FCT1500 and the other end, the white larger plug, into your BT wall socket.
Using the short white adaptor plug the small end into phone socket on the back of the FCT1500 and
plug your phone into the other end (BT female)
Why
When connected to a single line the FCT1500 will divert all calls to the programmed number
–
see set
up instructions below. In this scenario we suggest a 10seconds or more divert delay time.
If you do not want to use the FCT1500 to divert calls, but just for cost saving go to the Call Type set up
section where you can program different call types to go over your SIM card eg: Mobile to mobile,
Mobile to landline etc..
4b. To Connect to an Extension Socket of a PBX system:
Using the white RJ11 to RJ11 cable plug one end into the PSTN socket on the back of the FCT1500 and
the other end into an extension socket of your PBX System.
Using the short white adaptor plug the small end into phone socket on the back of the FCT1500 and
plug your phone into the other end (BT female). If this adaptor is too short you can get different lengths
from your supplier. NB
–
to use the FCT1500 on an extension you do not need to connect a phone once
programmed.
Why
When connected to an extension socket of your PBX system anyone in the office can divert an incoming
call to the mobile number or landline number programmed into the FCT1500. In this scenario your divert
delay time should be set to the minimum 01 seconds.
If you want to divert all calls during out of office hours you would point all calls to the extension with the
FCT1500 on
–
ie, Call Transfer all Calls to Another extension - See your PBX user guide to set this up.
4c. To connect to a Line Socket of a PBX System.
Using the Black BT Cable (RJ11 to BT) connect the small plug (RJ11) into the PSTN socket on the back
of the FCT1500 and the other end, the white larger plug, into your BT wall socket.
Using the White RJ11 to RJ11 cable plug one end into the Phone Socket of the FCT1500 and the other
end into a Line Socket of your PBX System.
Why
When connected to a Line socket of a PBX system all extension users will be able to use the free
minutes available on the inserted SIM card
–
they simply select the correct line before making the
out-going call.
During out of office hours the FCT1500, when connected to the line socket, can also be used to divert all
incoming calls on that line to the programmed number
–
In this scenario we suggest a 10 - 20 second
divert delay to enable staff to intercept the call before the divert starts NB: The divert would only work on
the one line.
