Since I have only one incoming line, if I'm on a call and get another call, will the answering machine pick up if plugged in Line 1/2 connection?

No, it will not. That is really a function of the phone service you have. Whether you have one line or two lines, the phone company will see a "busy" on the line that is in use. Only if you have two lines, and the ability with your phone service to "call forward if busy", would a call to one line be able to be answered by this particular telephone on the second line.

Yes you can. In fact when you pick up the second line it states you are on a conference call. Hope that helps.

No. You will interrupt line 1. You have to click line 2 to answer it if line one is being used.

Not sure what you mean by 2 lines but if you wonder if it handles call waiting it sure does. We are very satisfied with this phone system!

No. We have it hooked to our main line coming in to the business. But we are still happy with it. Maybe it's possible to use a splitter. I don't know. We don't use our second line but for fax or rair occasion of overflow of calls

You can set it up with the Phone company: Example Verizon. So YES my lines roll over to the next. No answer busy, it rolls to the next live line.

Don't know is this will help, but if you are on a call and another call comes in push talk. You can answer the incoming call and the original call is on hold. Push talk again and you have the original call.

I do not have this phone connected to a FAX Machine but I see no problem with this phone working correctly with one attached. You might need to set the FAX Machine to answer the call only when you need it to.

I have never had two calls coming in at once if that is what you mean. But it works perfectly.

I'm not an expert but it looks to me that you would need a second unit to handle the second line. It works very, very well. Haven't had any calls ring my phone that I didn't want to answer. Does block caller ID but who cares now.

One of the cordless phone bases is connected to your telephone line . You'd connect the answering machine there

Yes works with 2 separates phone lines and users can have conversation at same time...

Yes, it does have two inputs for two seperate phone lines. The caller ID gets stored as long as you do not run out of battery (cell) inside.

No. This only splits one line into two devices, two lines need two separate phone jacks.

So long as it is plugged into any jack for the phone line, it will identify incoming calls; it does NOT have to plugged into the same jack as the base unit.

Yes you can use the Intercom feature. Answer call, put on hold use Intercom to notify notify person which line to pick up.

No, this phone does not mutes while in conversation on line 1 when the 2nd line rings. I've been using this instrument with 2 working lines for last 15days and so far no such problems.
