or Fax/Tel mode. If you have external or
extension telephones on the same line as the
machine choose the maximum number of
rings.

F/T Ring Time
6
(Fax/Tel mode only)
When somebody calls your machine, you and
6
your caller will hear the normal telephone ring
sound. The number of rings is set by the ring
delay setting.
If the call is a fax, then your machine will
receive it; however, if it is a voice call the
machine will sound the F/T ring (a fast
double-ring) for the time you have set in the
F/T ring time setting. If you hear the F/T ring
it means that you have a voice caller on the
line.
Because the F/T ring is made by the machine,
extension and external telephones will not
ring; however, you can still answer the call on
any telephone. (For more information see
Using remote codes on page 42.)

Press Menu, 2, 1, 2.

seconds).
Press OK.

Note
Even if the caller hangs up during the
F/T ring, the machine will continue to ring
for the set time.
