PBX and TRANSFER
6
The machine is initially set to Normal, which
lets the machine connect to a standard PSTN
(Public Switched Telephone Network) line.
However, many offices use a central
telephone system or Private Branch
Exchange (PBX). Your machine can be
connected to most types of PBX. The
machine’ s recall feature supports timed
break recall only (TBR). TBR will work with
most PBX systems allowing you to gain
access to an outside line, or transfer calls to
another extension. The feature works when
Tel/R is pressed.
