11. Data and Fax Calls
The phone can send or receive data when it is
connected to a compatible data terminal (such as a fax
machine or PC) through a data adapter. See the
documentation for the data adapter and terminal.
Only analog data can be sent and received.
The phone recognizes the type of the connected
terminal automatically. For instance, if a fax machine is
connected to the phone, the phone makes a fax call.
Note: Pressing and holding 9 to initiate an emergency
call does not work when the phone is connected to a
modem.
