OVERVIEW
The Phone Line Manager 120B is the perfect solution if you
have a dedicated line for your home office, and you need to
connect a telephone and answering machine, as well as a fax
or modem (but not both).
The Phone Line Manager 120B works smoothly with
Distinctive Ring Service offered by most local phone
companies (different companies have various names for this
service; check with your phone company for details). In short,
the Phone Line Manager 120B is able to recognize specific
ring patterns assigned to your different phone numbers and
route calls to the right device. What’s more, the Phone Line
Manager 120B also works with Caller ID (requires service
activation).
The Phone Line Manager 120B immediately answers
every call in the Office mode. If you prefer to have all your
extension phones ring normally, select the Home mode.
The Phone Line Manager 120B is so smart it stays on the
line during every call, listening for instructions you enter
using your phone’s keypad. So you can talk for a few minutes,
push three keys, and transfer the call to your fax machine to
receive a document—all on the same call.
With the Phone Line Manager 120B, you’ll never miss
another important message while you’re away. That’s because
a unique feature called Remote Message Notification can
be setup to automatically send a special tone message to any
desired telephone number—local or long distance—to notify
you when you receive a voice message or fax document.
The Phone Line Manager 230B enables up to four
devices—usually a telephone, answering machine, fax, and
modem—to use a single phone line. It’s ideal if you have
two phone lines available, or if you have a single dedicated
office line and need to connect a telephone and answering
machine, as well as a fax and modem.
The Phone Line Manager 230B works smoothly with
Distinctive Ring Service offered by most local phone
companies (different phone companies have various names
for this service; check with your phone company for details).
Like its 120B version, the Phone Line Manager 230B is able
to recognize specific ring patterns assigned to your different
phone numbers and route calls to the right device.
The Phone Line Manager 230B can be set to answer
every call in the Office mode. If you prefer to have all your
extension phones ring normally, the Home mode can be set
instead. The choice is yours.
The Phone Line Manager 230B also works with your telco’s
Voice Mail service (requires Distinctive Ring Service activation)
and Caller ID service (requires additional service activation).
Going away from the office for a while? The Phone Line
Manager 230B can automatically send a special tone message
to any desired telephone number—local or long distance—
when you receive a voice message, fax, or data transmission.
The Phone Line Manager 230B works equally well with
one or two telephone lines. The system is also compatible
with two-line telephones.
You can also convert your fax machine into a full-page,
multidocument scanning system by using our built-in
ComScan
® feature. Just touch a button, and your fax machine
sends images directly into the fax/modem in your PC.
