Installing the Multi-Function Module
The Multi-Function Module (MFM) is an optional adapter for connecting
tip/ring (T/R) or supplemental alert devices to any MLX telephone. If you are
installing an MFM, do it before you install the MLX telephone.
The MFM provides a modular jack connection for the following adjuncts:
■ T/R devices such as single-line telephones, fax machines, modems,
credit card verification terminals, cordless telephones, and answering
machines. The MLX telephone and the adjunct that is connected to
the MFM are independent; they can send and receive calls at the
same time. The MFM is the only T/R adapter used with the MLX
telephones.
■ Supplemental alerts such as bells, chimes, horns, and strobes. These
alerts notify people in noisy areas of incoming calls.
The MFM is set for T/R devices or for supplemental alerts by two jumper
blocks preset at the factory for T/R operation. The MFM comes with the
following:
■ a KS22911-L2 power supply
■ a 400B or 400B2 adapter
■ a D6AP cord
See Figure 3-1.
