Auto Receive Mode [
FAX FAX FAX FAX FAX
]: If your machine is connected to a
telephone line reserved only for fax communications, use the
Auto Receive mode. Your machine will assume all incoming
calls are fax messages and automatically receive all incoming
fax messages.
Manual Receive Mode [
TEL TEL TEL TEL TEL
]: If you use the same line for both
fax and telephone calls and the majority of your incoming calls
are telephone calls, then the
TEL
answering mode is your best
choice. Each time someone calls, your machine rings like a
telephone. You can answer from either an external handset or
from an external telephone connected to your machine. If you
pick up the handset and hear fax machine tones (normally a
short peep every three seconds), press the
START
key to receive
the fax. If you do not answer the phone and someone tries to
send you a fax message, your machine will not accept it.
Note: Some older types of fax machines do not send CNG
tones and the line may be silent when you answer a call
in
TEL
answering mode.
If you answer a call using a telephone connected to the same
telephone line, but not connected directly to your machine,
you can remotely tell your machine to start fax reception by
entering a two digit remote receive number using the telephone
keypad. See Remote Receive in Programming later in this user’s
guide.
Telephone/Fax Auto Switch Mode [
T/F T/F T/F T/F T/F
]: When incoming calls
are a mixture of fax and telephone calls, your best choice is the
Telephone/Fax Auto SW mode. In this mode, your machine
detects whether the incoming call is a fax or voice call. When
the call is from another fax machine, your machine will switch
to fax mode and receive the message. When the call is a voice
call, your machine will ring like a telephone. If you do not
answer, your machine will switch back to fax mode to allow the
calling party to manually send a fax.
Note: Only use this mode if the telephone is located close
to your machine. After the initial ring, the telephone falls
silent, but the machine continues ringing.
Telephone Answering Device Mode [
TAD TAD
TAD TAD TAD
]: Use this mode if
you have connected an answering machine to your fax machine.
When a call is received and is not answered, your answering
machine activates and is ready to send out your recorded
outgoing message. At the same time, your machine monitors
the incoming call to check if the call is a fax or voice call. If the
incoming call is a fax call, your machine will receive the fax
and no voice message will be recorded on your answering
machine. If the incoming call is a voice call, then your machine
will not activate and the calling party will be able to leave a
voice message on your answering machine.
Note: In some countries, the Telephone Answering Device
mode is normally turned off. To have it turned on, contact
your dealer.
Memory Reception Mode [
MEM MEM
MEM MEM MEM
]: Use this answering mode if
you want incoming faxes to be stored in the memory of your
machine and not immediately printed. You can then use the
PRINT OPERATION function to print out any messages that
have been stored in the memory.
