6 Telephone services and external devices Telephone services 6 Your machine supports the Caller ID and Distinctive Ring subscriber telephone services that some telephone companies offer. Features like Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, answering services, alarm systems or other custom features on one telephone line may create problems with the operation of your machine. If you have Voice Mail on your telephone line, please read the following carefully.
Chapter 6 Distinctive Ring 6 Do you have Voice Mail? If you have Voice Mail on the telephone line that you will install your new machine on, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the machine will conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls. However, the Distinctive Ring feature allows you to use more than one number on your line, so both Voice Mail and the machine can work together without any problems.
Telephone services and external devices Note Ring Pattern #1 is often called Short-Short and is the most commonly used. If the ring pattern you received is not on this chart, please call your telephone company and ask for one that is shown. f g h Press Distinctive. i Press Stop/Exit. Distinctive Ring is now set to On.

If your TAD is plugged into a wall jack, both your machine and the TAD will try to control the telephone line. (See the illustration below.) 6 You may choose to connect an external answering device.
Telephone services and external devices Connections The external TAD must be plugged into the jack labeled EXT.

Chapter 6 Multi-line connections (PBX) We suggest you ask the company who installed your PBX to connect your machine. If you have a multi-line system we suggest you ask the installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the machine being activated each time the system receives telephone calls.
