:
• When you have set your machine to Ans/Fax mode and your answering
machine is switched off or no answering machine is connected to the EXT
jack, your machine automatically goes into Fax mode after a predefined
number of rings.
• If your answering machine has a “user-selectable ring counter,” set it to
answer incoming calls within 1 ring.
• If you are in Tel mode, which is receiving faxes manually, when the
answering machine is connected to your machine, you must switch off the
answering machine, or the outgoing message from the answering machine
will interrupt your phone conversation.
Receiving Manually Using an Extension
Telephone
You can receive a fax from someone you are talking to on the extension
telephone without going to the fax machine.
When you receive a call on the extension phone and hear fax tones, press
the keys
9 on the extension telephone. The machine receives the
document.
Press the buttons slowly in sequence. If you still hear the fax tone from the
remote machine, try pressing
9 once again.
9 is the remote receive code preset at the factory. The first and the
last asterisks are fixed, but you can change the middle number to whatever
you choose. For details about changing the code, see page 1.20.
Receiving Faxes Using the DRPD Mode
“Distinctive Ring” is a telephone company service which enables a user to
use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers.
The particular number someone uses to call you on is identified by different
ringing patterns, which consist of various combinations of long and short
ringing sounds. This feature is often used by answering services who
answer telephones for many different clients and need to know which
number someone is calling in on to properly answer the phone.
Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection feature, your fax machine can
“learn” the ring pattern you designate to be answered by the FAX machine.
Unless you change it, this ringing pattern will continue to be recognized and
answered as a FAX call, and all other ringing patterns will be forwarded to
the extension telephone or answering machine plugged into the EXT. jack.
You can easily suspend or change Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection at any
time.
Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection option, Distinctive Ring
service must be installed on your telephone line by the telephone company.
To set up Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection, you will need another
telephone line at your location, or someone available to dial your FAX
number from outside.
