Receiving Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection Feature: DRPD

Some telephone companies offer a Distinctive Ring Pattern (DRP) service whereby they assign two
or more telephone numbers with distinctive ring patterns to a single telephone line. If your phone
company offers such a service, you can have both a fax number(s) and a telephone number(s) for
your MultiPASS using only one telephone line.
Your MultiPASS will automatically monitor incoming calls and based on the distinctive ring
pattern, it will determine if the call is from a fax machine trying to send a document or from a
telephone trying to make a voice call.
