CHAPTER 2: Introduction
2. Introduction
This guide is designed to help you install and use the Line Share 120H. Please
read through this guide and select the installation procedures appropriate for
your specific application before attempting to connect or operate the Line
Share 120H.
NOTE
According to standard industry practice, surge protection is
recommended for use with all electronic devices. A surge suppressor
and/or line conditioning should be used on the input power supply, as
well as the connected telephone line.
Call Waiting: Fax and modem transmissions could be disrupted by the
call-waiting beep tone.
Call Forwarding: If call forwarding is enabled, the Line Share 120H
cannot process calls on that line.
Phone Company Voice Mail: This service is not compatible with the Line
Share 120H. However, standalone voice-mail systems work well with the
Line Share 120H.
We recommend that call forwarding and the phone company’s voice mail
services be discontinued.
The Line Share 120H is a state-of-the-art telephone line sharing device that
eliminates the extra dedicated telephone lines used to operate a fax, modem,
or other telephone devices.
The Line Share 120H quickly directs incoming telephone calls to one of
three appropriate destinations, typically a computer modem, fax/modem, or
fax machine, as well as a telephone and answering machine, or any other
telephone device that responds to a standard phone company ring signal.
Please read through the rest of this guide to learn how to properly install
and operate the Line Share 120H.

LINE SHARE 120H
3. Installation
The Line Share 120H is a single-line device that can be installed on any type
of modular or non-modular system that consists of one or more lines, with
one or more phones. A modular system consists of phone cables that can be
connected and disconnected from a telephone device. A non-modular system
consists of cables that are hard-wired to the telephone device and cannot be
disconnected from the equipment. A telephone installer may be required to
install the Line Share 120H on a non-modular system.
NOTE
Many offices have a KSU or PBX phone system. The Line Share 120H
works with either of these systems. Simply follow the appropriate
installation instructions provided in Section 3.7.
