compatible switchboard including those which
do not provide secondary proceed indication.
If you would like a list of suitable switchboards,

that the machine will operate correctly under all
possible conditions of connection. If you have

GENERAL INFORMATION
If the power fails
You will still be able to make and receive telephone
calls on your Paragon 200 even if the mains power
fails and there is no back-up battery installed.
However, the answering machine will not work
until the mains power is restored and the display
will be blank.

provided by BT may be assumed to have a
REN of 1 unless otherwise stated. A total
REN of 4 is allowed.
