Setting the F/T (Fax/Tel) Ring Time (Fax/Tel Mode Only)
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 fax machine rings, for 20, 30, 40 or 70 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. (See
