These functions are:
-
Changing the type of dialling
By pressing the
¬
key, you can switch from pulse to tone dialling, while dialling a number.
When the function is activated, the symbol "

-
Connecting to an external line
If you press the EXT./2nd D.TONE key
before dialling the number, you connect to an external
telephone line using the method set in the "DIAL TYPE" installation parameter (Dial number,
Flash, Earth). This function is used when the facsimile machine is connected to a private
branch exchange. When it is activated, the letter "E" appears on the display.
-
Pause
If you press the PAUSE/REDIAL key
while dialling the number (that is, between one digit and
another), the facsimile machine inserts a pause before dialling the remaining digits of the
number dialled. When it is activated, the letter "p" appears on the display.
-
Second tone
If you press the EXT./2nd D.TONE key
while dialling the number, the facsimile machine
detects a second exchange dial tone. This function is used when the machine is connected
to particular types of telephone exchanges. When it is activated, the symbol ":" appears on
the display.
METHODS OF TRANSMISSION
*
The facsimile machine enables you to send a document in several ways, according to the urgency,
the number of correspondents or confidentiality with which it is to be handled. The methods of
transmission can be divided into two groups:
-
Single-correspondent transmission
A document can be sent to a single correspondent using the following methods:
-
in immediate mode
when you want to send a document in the simplest and quickest way. Remember, however,
that, if the set-up parameter "AUTOMATIC STORING" is disabled, the document
must be left
in the ADF (otherwise the setting will be cancelled) and the facsimile machine cannot be used
for other operations until the end of the transmission transaction in progress

The
procedures, page 78.
-
in delayed mode
when you want to send the document at a preset time. This enables you to get round time zone
problems should the correspondent be thousands of kilometres away, and to choose times
when the lines are less busy and cheaper rates apply.
Remember that you can receive, copy or send other documents after setting the facsimile
machine for delayed transmission, as the document is automatically stored
