PROGRAMMING THE AFX-500
You can program the AFX-500’s special features using a
touch-tone telephone connected to the
PHONE
jack, or from a
remote touch-tone telephone. The following sections describe
both programming procedures. See “Command Descriptions”
for a detailed description of each command.
Notes:
• If you wait more than 8 seconds between keypresses, the
AFX-500 exits programming without saving any changes.
• You might hear a slight buzz while programming the AFX-
500. This is not a malfunction.
Programming through the Phone Jack
1. Lift the handset of the phone connected to the
PHONE
jack.
2. Press
#
on the phone’s keypad within 5 seconds.
3. Enter the command for the feature you want to change,
then press . The AFX-500 beeps three times. Repeat
this step for each feature you want to change.
Note: If you make a mistake entering a touch-tone com-
mand, the AFX-500 beeps once. Simply repeat Step 3.
4. When you finish programming the AFX-500, press to
save your changes, then hang up.
Programming from a Remote Phone
Before you can remotely program the AFX-500, you must pro-
gram a remote access security code (see “Remote Access
Security Code”), and be sure the AFX-500 is set to automatic
mode (see “Operating Modes” on Page 7).
1. Dial the AFX-500.
2. Between the second and third ring, enter
#
and your
remote access security code. You hear three beeps, indi-
cating the AFX-500 is ready to receive your changes. If
you continue to hear ringing, press
#
and enter your
access code again.
3. Enter the touch-tone code for the feature you want to
change, then press . The AFX-500 beeps three times.
Repeat this step for each feature you want to change.
Note: If you make a mistake entering a touch-tone com-
mand, the AFX-500 beeps once. Simply repeat Step 3.
4. When you finish programming the AFX-500, press to
save your changes, then hang up.
COMMAND DESCRIPTIONS
Each of the following sections describes a different AFX-500
special feature and explains how to turn on, turn off, or change
that feature. Each section includes this basic information:
Touch-Tone Command — the touch-tone command you en-
ter to turn on, turn off, or change the feature.
Default Setting — the default setting for the feature.
Related Commands — other features, if any, that might affect
or be affected by changes to this feature.
Unless stated otherwise, all features work in both automatic or
semiautomatic mode.
Operating Mode
Touch-Tone Command: 210 = Semiautomatic
211 = Automatic
Default Setting: Automatic
In
automatic mode
, the AFX-500 answers a call on the first
ring and listens for a fax alert tone, transfer code or modem
tone.
In
semiautomatic mode
, the AFX-500 routes incoming calls to
the
ANSWERING MACHINE
and
PHONE
jacks.
See “Operating Modes” on Page 7 for detailed information.
Remote Access Security Code
Touch-Tone Command: 60xxxx
xxxx = any four digits except
#
Default Setting: none
This command sets the touch-tone code required to program
the AFX-500 from a remote location (see “Programming from
a Remote Phone”).
You can always use the Remote Access Security Code fea-
ture in automatic mode. In semiautomatic mode, it only works
when Remote Message Notification is turned on.
The access code can be up to four digits, but it cannot include
a flash signal (#).
