How can I setup an extension to recieve faxes accross my pri? I knoe what digits the telco is sending when a call comes in for istance 4050. We use 44242D+ digital sets so the extensions are digital not sure how the switch would handle sending to a fax machine that is analog? thanks in advance.
 
You'd need to have an 012t/r or 016 t/r card to be able to hook up an analog device (such as a plain phone, a credit card terminal, or a fax). Then you'd just renumber one of those ports (analog) to match the DID digits that are being sent.
 
Thanks for the reply: I have the following card 412 LS-TDL Hardware Vintage 01, Software Vintage 08, Firmware : 02. Is this the card you speak of?
 
well I looked it up we do have a 016 ETR so I think I can make this happen. Thanks for the reply
 
I think on the ETR version of the card, only the last four can be configured as POTS type phones.

According to the manual:

016 ETR: ports 11-16 can be ETR or T/R (ports 1–10 can be ETR only)

The procedure to change a port from ETR to t/r is:

Extensions®More®More®ETR®
Type ext. no.®Enter®Select port type (ETR or Tip
