METHODS OF MAKING A CALL (DIALLING)

One of the essential operations involved in sending a document is dialling the correspondent's
facsimile number. During this preliminary phase, the facsimile machine connects to the telephone
line and dials the number you enter. Your device can store a large number of numbers and
associate additional information with them, thus creating an electronic telephone directory which
not only saves you time but eliminates the risk of making dialling errors.
The numbers stored can be dialled in four different ways:
- One-touch dialling
This is the fastest method and consists of dialling the number by pressing just one key to which
the desired number has been associated. There are 30 one-touch dialling keys (from 0 to 30)
and are grouped on the right-hand section of the console. A fax number and a telephone
number can be associated with each key.
- Speed dialling
Dials a previously stored number when you press three keys, that is SPEED DIAL and two
keys on the numeric keypad which constitute the speed dialling code (from 00 to 99). This
method can be used for dialling up to 100 facsimile numbers.
- Alphabetical dialling
This is the most functional method as it combines the utility of finding a person's number by
using his name with the speed at which it may be dialled. In fact, all you have to do is press
SPEED DIAL and the
codes in alphabetical order and press START to dial the relevant number.
- Group dialling
This method is used for sending the same document to several correspondents (broadcast
transmission). This dialling method enables up to 100 fax numbers (already entered as one-
touch or speed dial numbers) to be set on a single program key. There are three program keys,
situated in the central section of the console.
If there is a document in the ADF, the number selected will be the person's facsimile number,
otherwise it will be his telephone number. The numbers, names and additional data programmed
under one-touch dialling keys, speed dialling codes and program keys can be printed or deleted.
There are also three slower methods of dialling numbers that have not been stored:
- Dialling on the numeric keypad
Consists of typing the desired number on the numeric keypad and pressing START to
confirm.
- Manual dialling
You gain direct access to the telephone line by pressing the HOOK/TALK key (to hear the
dial tones), enter the desired number on the numeric keypad of the facsimile machine and
confirm by pressing START.
- Dialling on an external telephone
You simply dial the number and then press START.
In addition, there are some dialling functions that change the method of connection used by the
facsimile machine. These may be activated manually, that is, while dialling the number, or
automatically, while programming one-touch dialling keys or speed dialling codes.
