OKIDATA OF2200, Service Manual

Page: 410 / 410

If the remote caller decides to leave a voice message, the Okifax will attempt automatic reception when
the caller had completed their message. This gives the remote caller an opportunity to manually send a
fax whether or not they decide to leave a voice message.
NOTE:
If the answering device does not answer an incoming call within 35 seconds, the Okifax unit will begin
automatic reception. It is recommended that the answering device be set to answer incoming calls on as
few rings as possible.
There are times that the remote caller may have no intention of manually sending a fax. Because the
Okifax 2200 always provides the opportunity for the remote caller to send a fax, the Okifax 2200 begins
automatic reception whenever the answering device drops the line. The Okifax will hold the line open for
60 seconds while it attempts to receive.
When the Okifax attempts to receive after an incoming call, the receive tones can be heard through the
line monitor. Because the TAD Interface is designed to be used when nobody is available to take phone
calls, this would not normally be a problem. In a situation where the user finds the line monitor to be
annoying, the volume of the line monitor may be lowered or disabled (User Function #5). Be aware,
however, that once the line monitor is disabled, it becomes unavailable for transmit functions.
