Communicator Use of the Standard
Telephone Line (Landline Telephone
Only)
The Communicator makes telephone calls when there
is a need to send data to the LATITUDE system.
These calls usually last for approximately 5 minutes.
The Communicator can only make outgoing calls. It
cannot receive calls. The Communicator is designed
to operate on standard telephone connections like
those found in most homes and supports tone dialing
over an analog line. The Communicator may work
on other telephone systems, such as DSL and VoIP,
if those systems provide an analog interface for
connecting the Communicator. The Communicator
should not be connected to a digital phone interface,
such as those commonly used in some businesses,
hotels, and managed care facilities (nursing homes,
skilled care facilities, rehabilitation centers) where
telephones are typically provided by the facility.
If you have other telephone equipment (including fax
machine, answering system or computer modem)
connected to the same phone line and the line is in
70
