Data Port

This phone has a DATA PORT jack to connect an auxiliary phone device, such as a fax

machine, computer modem, answering machine, or even a cordless phone.
The DATA PORT switch on the back of the phone controls the DATA PORT jack so you can

choose Line 1 or Line 2.
Use the DATA PORT jack to hook up your fax machine, for example, and then set the DATA

PORT switch to 2 in order to receive faxes on the phone number for Line 2.

Connections and Setup

If you are talking to someone on Line 2 and want them to fax something to you, change

the DATA PORT switch to 1 and give him the phone number for Line 1. Your fax machine

can now receive calls on Line 1.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to switch the fax machine back to the normal line when you are done because

outside callers who may not know that you have multiple lines will not be able to reach your fax

machine if they dial the normal fax line.

Wall Mounting the Phone

1. Remove the desktop stand from the base of the phone if it is already attached to the

base unit.

2. Thread the AC adaptor cord through the cord channel on the bottom of the phone.
3. Connect the line cord to the wall jack and the phone.
4. Slip the mounting circles on the bottom of the phone over the wall plate posts and

firmly slide the unit down into place.

5. Plug the AC adaptor cord into the power outlet.
