Chapter 7
Recording an outgoing
message (OGM)
a
Record 5 seconds of silence at the
beginning of your message. This allows
your machine time to listen for fax tones.
b
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
c
End your 20-second message by giving
your Remote Activation code for people
sending manual faxes. For example:
"After the beep, leave a message or
press l51 and Start to send a fax."
NOTE
• You must turn the Remote Codes setting
to On to use the Remote Activation code
l51 (see Using Remote Codes
on page 53).
• We recommend beginning your OGM with
an initial 5 second silence because the
machine may not hear the fax tones over
a voice. You may try leaving out this
pause, but if your machine has trouble
receiving faxes, then you should re-record
the OGM to include it.

Multi-line connections (PABX)

Most offices use a central telephone system.
Brother recommends that all our Fax/MFC
machines be connected to a discreet
(dedicated) line. Although a particular PABX
may appear to work with a particular model of
fax machine, we cannot guarantee that the
unit will operate correctly.
While it is often relatively simple to connect a
fax machine to a PABX (Private Automatic
Branch Exchange), we suggest that you
contact the company that installed your
telephone system and ask them to connect
the fax machine for you.
Brother does not recommend the use of a
PABX line. PABX limitations in general can
cause some functions of the fax machine not
to work correctly.
