Setting the F/T Ring Time
You need to determine how long the machine will notify you with its
special F/T pseudo-ring when you have a voice call. This ringing
happens after the initial ringing from the phone company. Only the
machine rings, for 20, 30, 40 or 70 (for the U.K. and others) and 20, 30,
40 or 55 (for IRE) seconds; no other phones on the same line ring the
special F/T pseudo-ring. However, you can answer the call on any
extension phone (in a separate wall socket) on the same line as the
machine.

Now, when a call comes in and the machine is set to Fax/Tel (F/T)
Mode, all phones on this line will ring the number of times you selected
in Ring Delay.
You can let the machine pick up and detect if it’s a fax or voice call. If
it’s a fax call, the machine prints the fax. If it’s a voice call, the machine
signals you with an F/T pseudo-ring for the length of time you selected
in F/T Ring Time.
Even if the caller hangs up during the F/T pseudo-ringing, the machine
continues the F/T pseudo-ringing for the set time.
Please note that some faxes cannot be received automatically in Fax/Tel
(F/T) Mode, because some fax machines do not send the standard Group
3 calling tone (“CNG”).
IMPORTANT: This machine does not re-generate ringing conditions to
any extension telephones. Any such extension telephones will only ring
during the period set on ring delay.
