+Aux Feature

The +Aux feature allows a single telephone line to be shared by a modem, the Power On/Off +Aux system, and one other telephone device,
such as a facsimile machine or answering machine - which is attached to the A

UX

port. This feature also provides (with or without an

auxiliary device attached) a unique level of security for the Power-ON Mode or

RE

BOOT Mode

With the +Aux Feature enabled, routine incoming calls are routed to the auxiliary port device while modem access and power controls are
safely disguised. Only a secure 'secret' method will activate power controls and allow access to the modem.

Note: Power On/Off +Aux's line-sharing feature requires that both devices, modem and auxiliary, be capable of answering on ring number
three (3) or greater; if the modem and/or auxiliary device answer after only one (1) or two (2) rings, it will not be possible to share the line.

DIP Switch #7

DIP switch 7 controls the +Aux Feature. The specific functions of other DIP switches are not altered. To enable the
+Aux Feature place switch 7 in the ON (down) position:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

ON

Installing an Auxiliary Device

The rear panel of the Power On/Off +Aux control unit contains an RJ-11 telephone jack labeled "A

UX

". This jack allows

a second analog telephone device to be used on the same line as the modem.

To connect a secondary (auxiliary) device, insert one end of a standard telephone cable into the port labeled A

UX

, and the

other end into the telephone device.

If the device is an automatic answering device, like a facsimile or answering machine, it must be configured to wait
at least three (3) rings before it will answer.
Refer to the auxiliary device's operations manual for specific instructions.
