Setting the Options for Fax/Tel Mode
If you set Fax/Tel Mode, you can control precisely how the unit handles incoming calls
by adjusting the following settings:
• Adjust the time the unit takes to check whether a call is from a fax machine or a
telephone (RING START TIME setting).
• Adjust the length of time the unit rings when the call is a voice call (F/T RING TIME
setting).
• Set whether the unit switches to receive mode after the ring time set in F/T RING
TIME has elapsed (DEFAULT ACTION setting).

You can also set these options from the MultiPASS Suite. (1 Software User's Guide)
