Couple of questions about Butt Sets - 01/29/12 04:15 PM
I have a couple of questions concerning butt sets. I recently bought the MT-8100 to replace my old one, but I've found that it doesn't work for many of the things I do with a butt set. I suspect the "High Impedance Monitor" is the cause, and I'm asking if anyone knows if this is the case.
Here's some of the problems I'm having with the new butt set;
Cannot test for dial tone on the Avaya ACS.
Cannot monitor for data on second pair of ACS extension.
Cannot monitor the output of a sound system.
I really need to know if this because of the "High Impedance Monitor" before I exchange this set for a different one.
That pretty much sums up my first question.
The other question is about these "DSL Safe" sets.
What is the deal exactly? I use an older butt set to check phone lines with DSL all the time, and I've never had any problem. The DSL doesn't stop working. So I don't understand why I need a data safe set. Can someone explain that to me?
I appreciate any help I can get with this.
