Connecting an external
telephone answering device
(TAD)
8
Your Brother machine can automatically
receive faxes when it shares a line with an
external TAD. To receive faxes successfully,
you must connect the TAD to the jack labeled
EXT. on the Brother machine and set the
machine’s Receive Mode to External TAD.
When you record the outgoing message on
your external TAD, we recommend recording
5 seconds of silence at the beginning of
message, and limiting your speaking to
20 seconds.
