Setup a fax line

[rburcham]

I have tried the help from some of the postings and I get a half of a ring and then it goes to voicemail. If I dial out on the line all I get is the main phone.

ATA used with Fax Machine:

-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.
-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 used to setup the ATA primed to pool A and under external hotline I would use Feature78....does this way still work also for those who do not have routing tables?
