Selecting The Reception Mode - Sharp UX-485 Operation Manual

Selecting the Reception Mode

Your fax machine has four modes for receiving incoming calls and faxes:
TEL mode:
This mode is the most convenient for
receiving phone calls. Faxes can also
be received; however, all calls must
first be answered by picking up the
fax's handset or an extension phone
connected to the same line.
FAX mode:
Select this mode when you only want
to receive faxes on your line. The fax
machine will automatically answer all
calls and receive incoming faxes.
TEL/FAX mode:
This mode is convenient for receiving
both faxes and voice calls. When a
call comes in, the fax will detect
whether it is a voice call (including
manually dialled fax transmissions),
or an automatically dialled fax. If it is a
voice call, the fax will make a special
ringing sound to alert you to answer.
If it is an automatically dialled fax
transmission, reception will begin
automatically.
A.M. mode:
Select this mode when you are out
and want the built-in answering
machine to answer all calls. Voice
messages will be recorded, and fax
messages will be received
automatically.
