Abstract
A facsimile machine includes a MODEM, an attenuator, an NCU and a controller. A signal from the MODEM is adjusted in level by the attenuator under the control of the controller and then output to a transmission line through the NCU. In this case, the adjustment of the level of the signal to be transmitted is carried out in accordance with a predetermined characteristic, such as frequency, of the signal to be transmitted. Also provided is a push phone having a DTMF signal generating circuit and a DTMF signal is also adjusted in level before being output to the transmission line in a manner similar to the signal from the MODEM.
