Options 2 and 3 require settings to be programmed into the unit using the
configuration software. For more information, see 2.2.6 Fax information on
page 49 and
2.4.2.4 Automatic fax detection on page 85.

1.8.3 Connecting devices to the music jack

The music jack is designed to support audio sources like a CD player, audio,
tape player or other sound devices for playing music or messages to callers
while they are on hold. Connect the audio source via its headphone output
to the music jack.

The music jack requires a 1/8" (3.5 mm) mono phono connector. If you have
more than one unit connected to a LAN, load a .wav file onto each unit to
eliminate the need for a separate music source for
each unit.

1.8.4 Connecting to the PA (public address) jack

The PA jack can be connected to a PA system for external paging or to an
amplification system to screen voicemail or to use as a line simulator. The
PA jack requires a 1/8" (3.5 mm) mono phono connector. If you have more
than one unit connected to a LAN, you need to provide a connection onto
the system to the PA system.

1.9 NETWORKING TALKSWITCH UNITS ON A LAN

Up to four 48-CA and/or 48-CVAunits can be networked together over a LAN
to increase the number of lines and extensions in your phone system.

1.9.1 Connecting TalkSwitch units to a LAN

You can plug your unit(s) into your existing LAN or operate it on its own
LAN with an Ethernet switch. Ensure that the firmware on all units is
updated before adding them to the LAN.
Check www.talkswitch.com/support/ for the latest updates.

If your auto attendant volume is set too high or if your telephone lines
are noisy, the auto attendant may have difficulty detecting the incoming
fax tone and therefore not route the call to the fax machine. You can
solve this problem by adjusting the volume. For more information, see
2.6.2 Audio Controls on page 107.
