Receiving Faxes and Phone Calls Automatically: FaxTel
Mode
Set this mode if you want your machine to automatically switch between voice and fax calls.
You can control precisely how your machine handles incoming calls by adjusting the settings described
below.
Setting the Options for FaxTel Mode
When you select FaxTel Mode from the Menu, you can also set the following options.
■
RING START TIME
When a call comes in, the machine checks to see if it is a person wishing to speak to you or a fax machine trying to
send a document. If your machine does not have enough time to detect the fax tone, it assumes the call is from a
telephone. Use the <RING START TIME> setting to increase the time the machine takes to check whether a call is
from a fax machine or a telephone. You can select a time between 0 and 30 seconds; the default is 8 seconds.
■
F/T RING TIME
When your machine is set to receive both fax and telephone calls automatically, the telephone rings to alert you to
pick up the handset if the call is from a person. If you do not pick up the handset within a certain amount of time, the
telephone stops ringing. Use this option to change the number of times the machine rings, from 10 to 60 seconds.
The default is 22 seconds.
