Telephone Service
BT Call Sign (For U.K. Only)
The machine feature lets you use the BT Call Sign subscriber service which allows you to have at
least two separate telephone numbers on one phone line. Each phone number has its own distinctive
ringing pattern, so you know which phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a
separate phone number for the machine.
The machine has a BT Call Sign compatible distinctive ringing function, allowing you to dedicate a
second phone number (on the same phone line) just for receiving faxes.
To enable the machine to work with BT Call Sign (Only with your external phone)

Deactivation Code and the Remote Access Code.
You can switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax
number, make sure you reset this function.
