Special Line Considerations Roll Phone Over Lines A roll over phone system is a group of two or more separate telephone lines that pass incoming calls to each other if they are bust,: The calls are usually passed down or "rolled over" to the next available phone line in a preset order. %urFAX/MFC canworkin a rolloversystemaslongasit isthe lastnumberin thesequence,so thecallcannotrollawa},: Donotput theFAXJMFC on anyofthe othernumbers;whentheotherlinesarebusyand a secondfaxcall isreceived, thefaxcall istransferredto a linethat doesnothavea faxmachine.YourFAXJ MFCwillworkbestona dedicatedline. Two-Line Phone System A two-line phone system is nothing more than two separate phone numbers on the same wall outlet. The two phone numbers can be on separate jacks (RJ11) or combined into one jack (RJ14). Your Fb_MFC must be plugged into an RJ11 jack. RJ11 and RJ14 jacks may be equal in size and appearance and both may contain 4 wires (black, red, green, yellow). To test the type of jack, plug in a two-line phone and see if it can access both lines.

The back of the two-lineTADmust have twotelephone jacks:one labeled L1or L1/L2,and the other labeled L2.Youwill need at leastthree telephoneline cords,the one that camewith your F_'ffMFCand twofor your externaltwo-line TAD.Youwill need a fourth line cord ifNu add a two-linetelephone.
