Step 3: Connect Phones or Fax Machines

Use a standard telephone cable (not included) to connect an analog phone or fax machine to one of the available phone ports located on the back of the device C. When a phone port is ready for use, its Status LED will be lit a solid blue. Once you have connected a telephone, you can begin calling.

If you’re using a fax machine on a port, you’ll need to set that port to fax mode for optimal results. The account admin can do this by following these instructions:

  1. Log in to office.ooma.com or the desptop app as an administrator and go to the Devices page.
  2. Choose the Grandstream ATA adapter you’d like to update and select it to bring up the Edit Device page.
  3. Check the Enable Fax mode box beside the phone port that will be connected to the fax machine.
  4. Save your changes.

As soon as the port’s Status LED is lit a solid blue, you can begin using your fax machine.
