Automatic No Answer Transfer
Touch-Tone Command: 00 = Off
10 = On
Default Setting: On
With Automatic No Answer Transfer turned on, the AFX-500
allows six rings any time it routes a call to the
ANSWERING
MACHINE
and
PHONE
jacks. After six rings, it routes the call
back to the
FAX
and
FAX/MODEM
jacks.
With Automatic No Answer Transfer turned off and the AFX-
500 set to automatic mode, the AFX-500 rings the
ANSWER-
ING MACHINE
and
PHONE
jacks six times, then resets for the
next call (Automatic Ring Reduction is activated).
With Automatic No Answer Transfer turned off and the AFX-
500 set to semiautomatic mode, the AFX-500 rings the
AN-
SWERING MACHINE
and
PHONE
jacks until the caller hangs up
or you answer the call (Automatic Ring Reduction is
not
acti-
vated).

With the Automatic Answering Machine Transfer feature
turned on, if your answering machine answers a call but dis-
connects within 30 seconds (if its memory is full, for example),
the AFX-500 routes the call to the
FAX
and
FAX/MODEM
jacks.
If the call is on line for more than 30 seconds, the AFX-500 re-
sets for the next call when the answering machine discon-
nects.
Note: You can change the 30-second setting (see “Automatic
Answering Machine Transfer Timer”).
When the Automatic Answering Machine Transfer feature is
turned off, the AFX-500 resets each time the answering ma-
chine disconnects a call and it does not route calls to the
FAX
and
FAX/MODEM
jacks.

If you program the AFX-500 to use the Automatic Answering
Machine Transfer feature, you should set the Automatic An-
swering Machine Transfer Timer to about 10 seconds longer
than your answering machine’s outgoing message. This al-
lows adequate time for a fax without an alert tone to reach
your fax machine.
With the timer set to 0 or 00, the AFX-500 always transfers the
call to the
FAX
and
FAX/MODEM
jacks, regardless of how long
the call has been on the line.

With Automatic Ring Reduction turned on, any time the AFX-
500 routes a call to the
FAX
and
FAX/MODEM
jacks, it automat-
ically reduces the number of rings on subsequent calls from
six to two, so the next fax call can connect sooner. It resets the
number of rings to six after 10 minutes of inactivity on the
FAX
and
FAX/MODEM
jacks, or you can manually reset it by placing
a call on any phone on the same line (or by just picking up the
phone, then hanging it up).
With Automatic Ring Reduction turned off, the AFX-500 al-
ways allows six rings when it routes a call to the
ANSWERING
MACHINE
and
PHONE
jacks.
Note: Turning this feature off may limit some fax machines’
ability to connect to your fax machine.
