If you cannot receive any faxes, you may have set both
ringing signal numbers too high (see points 2 and 4). Set
both ringing signal numbers to values lower than five .
If you are using other devices apart from the fax machine
(telephones, answering machines), which are not connected
by serial links (see Glossary), the ringing pattern may
change as follows: Other devices ring as often as set under

Special settings

Silent fax reception
To receive faxes without any ring signals, set the amount of ring
signals in FAX RINGS to 0.
Completely silent operation
You should use this option only with devices with integral an-
swering machines. If, for example, you do not wish to be dis-
turbed by calls or faxes arriving at night, you may set the number
of ringing signals to 0. Faxes are then received silently and calls are
immediately answered by the answering machine, provided you
have switched the answering machine on.
For devices without integral answering machine the fax switch is
turned off, i. e. your device immediately switches over to fax re-
ception and will not ring, when calls are received (the caller hears
a whistling tone).
For this reason calls cannot be recorded by any external
answering machine which may be connected.
Manual fax reception
If you select MANUAL RECEPTION, then faxes are only au-
tomatically printed out by your fax machine, if you activate
the fax reception by pressing START. This may be sensible for
example, if you wish to receive your faxes by modem at your
computer.

machine will start after two ringing signals instead of after five,
when you receive messages. Via the remote access function you
have the opportunity to check, whether your answering machine
holds any messages without incurring telephone cost (if your an-
swering machine turns itself on after only two ringing signals you
will know, that new messages have been left). After listening to
your new messages your answering machine will, at the next call,
switch itself on again after five ringing signals.
