Setting the Reception Mode

Setting the Reception Mode
Your fax machine has four modes for receiving incoming calls and
faxes:
TEL mode:
This is the most convenient mode for receiving phone calls. You can
also receive faxes; 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:
Use this mode only if you have connected an answering machine to
the fax (see Chapter 6). Select this mode when you go out to receive
voice messages in your answering machine and faxes on your fax
machine.
