subscriber telephone service that some

Waiting/Caller ID, answering services, alarm
systems or other custom features on one
telephone line may create problems with the
operation of your machine.

Caller ID is available for U.K. and Ireland
only.

PBX and TRANSFER 6
The machine is initially set to Normal, which
lets the machine connect to a standard PSTN
(Public Switched Telephone Network) 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. The feature works when the Tel/R
key on the control panel is pressed.
Note
You can program a Tel/R key press as
part of a number stored in a Speed Dial
location. When programming the
Speed Dial number, press Tel/R first (the
LCD shows “!”), then enter the telephone
number. If you do this, you do not need to
press Tel/R each time before you dial
using a Speed Dial location. (See Storing
numbers uu page 40.) However, if your
Telephone Line Type is not set to PBX on
the machine, you cannot use the Speed
Dial location that the Tel/R is programmed
into.
