Notes on the Telephone Line
❑ The internal fax modem can be connected to the subscriber telephone
line. Do not connect it to the PBX (Private Branch Exchange).
Connecting to the PBX may cause a failure or fire.
❑ Some PBXs may use the same electric requirements as the subscriber
telephone line of the local telephone company. Ask the manufacturer
of your PBX or your PBX maintenance agent for compatibility.
❑ The internal modem of your computer is set to hang up if the called
party does not answer within 60 seconds. You may change this length
to less than 30 seconds, which, however, may prevent a connection
from being established due to some delays caused by the telephone
switch. It is advised to set the length to 30 seconds or more.
❑ If your Internet service provider supports V.90 or 56K,
communications of up to 56 Kbps are available. This, however, may
vary depending on the telephone line condition.
❑ If you use a splitter to branch the telephone line, the internal fax
modem may not operate successfully.
❑ Select the appropriate mode adopted in your country. You can select
it from the Modem Properties dialog box.
