Telephone Dialing Logic

For the Eclipse system to send a fax, you need to identify the dialing logic that is compatible with your company's phone system. Depending on where your company is located, you dial local calls with 7 digits or 10 digits, and you dial toll calls with or without using the prefix 1.

The following table explains each dialing logic option. If you are not sure which dialing logic to select, contact your local phone company.
