External TAD Hookup
There is only one way you can hook up an external Telephone Answering Device
(T AD) on the fax phone line. The TAD must be plugged into the back of the MFC in
the jack labeled EXT. Your MFC cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall
jack. Follow these steps:
1. Plug the telephone line cord from the wall jack into the back of the MFC in the jack
labeled LINE.
2. Plug the telephone line cord from your TAD into the back of the MFC in the jack
labeled EXT. (Double check that the telephone line cord comes from the jack in the
TAD for telephone line and not for telephone set.)
3. Put your MFC in Message Center mode by turning both the Fax and F/T lights on
and set Message Storage to VOICE: EXT mode.
4. Set your TAD to 4 rings or less. (The MFC’s Ring Delay setting does not apply).
5. Turn the tad ’ s Answer mode to ON.
6. Record the OGM (outgoing message) on your TAD as explained on the next page.
