Using A Cordless External Telephone; Using Remote Codes - Brother MFC-250C User Manual

Chapter 7
This new connection configuration can be
arranged by contacting BT, Kingston upon
Hull Telecommunications, your PBX
maintainer or a qualified telephone
installation company as appropriate. Simply
explained, the extension telephone circuit
should be terminated on a normal modular
plug (BT 431A style), which in turn should be
put into the modular socket of the white
'T'-shaped connector provided as part of the
line cord assembly.

These telephones are now connected as
external devices (see Connecting an
external or extension telephone
on page 41), because they are connected
to the fax machine via the T-connector.

Using a cordless external
telephone
Once the base unit of the cordless telephone
has been connected to the same telephone
line as the machine (see External and
extension telephones on page 41), it is easier
to answer calls during the Ring Delay if you
carry the cordless handset around with you.
If you let the machine answer first, you will
have to go to the machine so you can press
Tel/R to send the call to the cordless handset.

Using remote codes

Remote Activation Code
If you answer a fax call on an extension
telephone, you can tell your machine to
receive it by dialling the Remote Activation
Code 5 1. Wait for the chirping sounds then
replace the handset. (See Fax Detect
on page 35.)
If you answer a fax call at the external
telephone, you can make the machine
7
receive the fax by pressing Mono Start.
Remote Deactivation Code
If you receive a voice call and the machine is
in F/T mode, it will start to sound the F/T
(double) ring after the initial ring delay. If you
pick up the call on an extension telephone
you can turn the F/T ring off by pressing # 5 1
(make sure you press this between the rings).
If the machine answers a voice call and
pseudo/double rings for you to take over, you
can take the call at the external telephone by
pressing Tel/R.
