Additional Information

9.1 Using Other Telephones With Your EP4300 Telephone

 Using other EP4300 intercom telephones

Your EP4300 telephone is fully compatible with other EP4300 intercom phones.

You may mix and match basic, voice mail, and cordless versions as well as mixing

and matching EP4300 telephones with different numbers of lines. The EP4300

system boasts flexibility as well as expandability.

 Using standard telephones

You may also use standard (non- EP4300) telephones in conjunction with your

EP4300 telephones. All features of the non- EP4300 telephones will operate nor-

mally. However, they will not be able to share the features of the EP4300 tele-

phones.

 Line Status and Calls on Hold

The line status indicators of the EP4300 phones will recognize the standard tele-

phones, and when you place a call on hold at a EP4300 telephone, you will be able

to take the call off hold at a standard telephone.

Note: If the line status indicators of your EP4300 telephones do not function prop-

erly, either failing to light up when a standard telephone uses a line, or staying lit

even though no telephone is using a line, then please see page 59 and follow the

instructions for setting the loop voltage detector.

 Call Privacy

Call privacy is not observed by non- EP4300 telephones. A non- EP4300 tele-

phone on any line has access to that line at any time, whether or not it is being used

by a EP4300 telephone.

 Intercom

Non- EP4300 telephones cannot use the intercom feature to communicate with

EP4300 telephones.

 Using fax machines and computer modems

You may connect computer modems or fax machines to any of your lines, and the

line indicators of the EP4300 telephones will light when these devices are using a

line.

You may also connect fax machines and computer modems to Line 2 by connect-

ing them to the data/fax jacks. Use of the data/fax jack is discussed on the follow-

ing page.
