I am add a line for a fax

[rburcham]

I need to know how to add a line from a T1 to an analog port to setup a fax? I have one setup now for a fax on the first floor and want to add a new fax on the second with it's own number. The phone company said that the line is up and ready.

Is this a digital line out of the T-1, DID, or is being broken out thru a channel bank into copper?

It is a digital line out of the T-1. The other fax is the same.

If you are usind a DID of T1. You must program line as a target line then assign that target line to the ATA DN of the system.

Target Lines Programming:
From Lines – Show
Show LN: 145 – Show (target line range from 145-275 non-XC SW, 145-336 XC SW)
Target LN – Next
Private to: (extension number) – Next
Rec’d #: (enter extension #) – Next
If Busy: to prime – Next
PrimeSet: 221 (change to the extension #) - Next
CLID Set: None – Next
Aux. Ringer: N – Next

ATA used with Fax Machine:
1. You need to set ATA DN to Hotline. Hotline selects whether a telephone will be dialed automatically when receiver is lifted. Programmed in capabilities under terminal and sets.
2. Scenario: A customer has a Norstar® MICS 4.1 system. This customer has a fax machine attached to the MICS via an ATA. When faxing out of the system they use a line access code of 9 and then the desired recipient telephone number. They want to simply dial the number without dialing the access code when faxing.

Solution:
1. Under Services, build a Route and point it to a Pool Group. Then build a Destination Code and point it to the Route.
2. Under Terminals & Sets/Line Access change PRIME LINE: NONE to INTERCOM for the analog station.
3. Under Terminals & Sets/Capabilities change HOTLINE: __ to be EXTERNAL, then HOTLINE DIGITS DIALED OUT: to be the Destination Code in step 1 and then change the USE LINE: __ to be USE ROUTING TABLE.
4. Give the station in question Line Pool Access to the Pool Group in step 1.

Good Luck!!

I made the changes that you listed.
When i dial the number I get one short ring and then it goes to the voicemail.

Make sure "Call Fwd No Ans" & "Call Fwd On Busy" are not setup to voicemail. Make sure you do not have "DND On Busy" setup either.
