•Introduction
The AS-55 is a single line, telephone line simulator, designed to be
permanently installed between your computer and its telephone lines. To
your customers, the AS-55 is completely invisible, but to you, it will be
invaluable. Just leave a local telephone connected to the AS-55, and
whenever you need to get your messages, just take your local telephone
"OFF HOOK" and the AS-55 will automatically connect you to your Voice
Card. If one of your customers is already using your Voice Card, the AS-55
will give you a simulated "BUSY" signal.
If you get a "BUSY", just hang up the local phone and try again later, or
you use the AS-55's CALL-BACK feature to have the system "RING UP"
your local phone when the system is ready. The AS-55 even lets you to stop
a customer's call so you can access your Voice Card in an emergency.
Hookup couldn't be simpler; you can connect the AS-55 to either a
single port or dual port Voice Card and then just connect a simple telephone
to the jack labeled PHONE. We have even installed an audio jack in the AS-
55 that allows you to record HIGH quality announcements onto the voice
card, as well as allowing you to make tape archives of all your messages. All
of these features come together to give you simplicity of connection, ease of
operation and a hassle free working environment.
