EDUCTION
This feature ensures that the ASD-4 receives all fax and modem transmissions
when it is unattended (if an answering machine is not connected to the ASD-
4). The feature is designed mainly to accommodate auto-dial faxes that do not
produce CNG tones.
During unattended hours, if your phones aren’t answered by the sixth ring
(or the number of Rings Available to the TAD and PHONE Ports—see
Section 5.4.8
), the ASD-4 automatically reduces the number of rings available
to the TAD and PHONE ports to two. The next time a call is answered and
routed to the TAD and PHONE ports, the ASD-4 will only ring the TAD and
PHONE ports two times and then route the call to the FAX or MODEM port
(depending on the setting of feature number [1][2], Automatic Transfer Port
Selection).
If you don’t want the Automatic Ring Reduction feature to reduce the ring
count on the TAD and PHONE ports, you can turn the feature OFF. The
feature is factory-preset ON, [1] [0] [*].
