Most FAX machines have the capability to dial the
receiving FAX number from memory. When the number is
dialed, an identification tone is produced every 3-1/2
seconds that allows call processing equipment, like your
ATX-250, to identify the call as originating from a FAX.
When auto FAX tone detection is turned on, your ATX-250
will transfer these calls to
DEVICE 2,
where your FAX
machine is normally connected.
NOTE: Many FAX machines allow both voice and FAX
calls to be dialed manually from their keyboard. Also,
some older FAX machines do not have auto-dialing
capability. These machines may not always produce the
necessary identification tone for automatic transfer.
Manual dialed FAX calls will ring through to your telephone
system and are easily transferred to your FAX by dialing
* 2
It is possible for female voices to produce sounds of the
same pitch as the FAX identification (CNG) tone. To avoid
inadvertant transfers, your ATX-250 only monitors the
initial stage of incoming calls for CNG tones.
