2. Introduction

Phone Company Voice Mail:

The phone company’s voice-

mail service is not

compatible with the

Lineshare Pro, but stand-

alone voice mail systems

work well with the Lineshare

Pro.

We recommend that service

for call forwarding, and the

phone company’s voice mail

be discontinued. If you have

problems with call waiting,

simply turn off call waiting

during data transmissions.

2.2 About the Lineshare Pro

The Lineshare Pro 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. It quickly directs incoming

telephone calls to one of four

appropriate destinations, typically a

computer modem or fax/modem, a

facsimile machine, a telephone, and

a Telephone Answering Device

(TAD), or any other telephone

device that responds to a standard

phone-company ring signal.

2.1 Before You Begin

This guide is designed to introduce

you to the operating and installation

procedures for using the Lineshare

Pro.

Please read this guide and select

the installation procedures

appropriate for your specific

application before attempting to

connect or operate the Lineshare

Pro.

NOTES

According to standard

industry practice, surge

protection is recommended

for all telecommunications

devices. Surge suppressors

and/or line conditioning

should be used on the input

power supply, as well as the

connected telephone line.

Call Waiting: Fax machine

and modem transmissions

could be disrupted by the

call waiting beep tone.

Call Forwarding: If call

forwarding is enabled, the

Lineshare Pro A/C cannot

process calls on that line.

LINESHARE PRO

Listed below are examples of

various telephone-activated devices

that can be connected to the

Lineshare Pro:

• Fax/modem

(TAD)
