Connecting the Input Guard to a Phone Line which has a fax or answering
machine connected to it
Program the Input Guard to answer after one more ring than the other device. This allows
the other device to always answer first.
To call and access the Input Guard
1. Dial the phone number
2. Hang up one ring before the other device answers.
3. Wait no longer than 30 seconds, then dial the phone number again.
4. The Input Guard will answer.
Example:
A fax machine on the same line as the Input Guard is set to answer after 4 rings.
The Input Guard is programmed to answer after 5 rings.
To access the Input Guard, dial the number, let it ring three times, then hang up. Wait 20
seconds and call again. After two rings, the Input Guard will answer.
Do not set the Fax/Answering Machine to 2 rings and the Input Guard to 3 rings. This will
force both to answer at the same time.
