How many telephones can you have?
All items of telephone equipment have a Ringer Equivalence Number (REN), which is
used to calculate the number of items, which may be connected to any other telephone
line. Your Telstra F5050 has a REN of 0.1. A total REN of 3 is allowed. If the total REN of 3
is exceeded, the telephone may not ring.
With different telephone types there is not guarantee of ringing, even when the REN is
less than 3.
Only use approved power supply.
Only use approved 600mAh, AAA NiMH rechargeable batteries.
Connecting to a PABX
This product is intended for use within the Australia for connection to public telephone
network and compatible PABXs, which support tone dialling and timed break recall. If in
doubt please consult your switchboard provider.
Switchboard external line access code
You may need to enter an access code (e.g. 9) in order to get an outside line. So that the
switchboard has time to pick up an outside line, you may also need to add a Pause after
the access code.
