Connecting Other Devices to the Phone Line

You can connect other devices to the same phone line as the SF-555P
product.

Deciding What to Connect

You have connected the SF-555P to the wall jack. Generally, there are
three other devices that can be connected to the same phone line:
• a telephone
• an answering machine
• an external modem or a computer with an internal modem

Which, of these you connect to this phone line depends on your
configuration. Please see the following configurations.

Situation 1

You connected the SF-555P to a wall jack with a phone line for
fax calls only (a dedicated fax line).

You do not need to connect any other devices. However:
• You can connect an external modem or a computer with an internal

modem to this phone line if you want to use the fax line to access the
Internet or e-mail.

• You can connect an extra telephone to this wall jack if you would like

to make outgoing voice calls.

To connect any of these devices to the same phone line, go to
“Connecting Other Devices, Overview” on

page A.4

. If you have another

wall jack for this phone line, you can connect the extra phone and/or
external modem or computer with internal modem to the other wall jack.

Note: Because this is a dedicated fax line, you should never

have an answering machine or computer connected.
Or, using computer voicemail, you must connect the
computer with internal modem or the external modem to
your dedicated voice line. You will connect to the Internet or
e-mail using the dedicated voice line.
