The machine's [Phone Line Set] default setting is [Normal], which lets the machine connect to a standard
Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) line. However, many offices use a central telephone system or
Private Branch Exchange (PBX). Your machine can be connected to most types of PBX. The machine's recall
feature supports timed break recall only (TBR). TBR will work with most PBX systems allowing you to gain
access to an outside line, or transfer calls to another extension. Press [R] or the Tel/R button to use this feature.
Program a press of the [R] button (or the Tel/R button) as part of a number stored in the Address Book.
When programming the Address Book number, press [R] (or the Tel/R button) first (the LCD displays ‘!’),
then enter the telephone number. This avoids having to press [R] (or the Tel/R button) each time before
you dial from the Address Book. However, your Telephone Line Type must be set to PBX on the machine
for you to use this feature.
