FaxStream Duet is a call handling feature
that helps users distinguish voice and
facsimile calls. With FaxStream
incoming calls to a fax number are
announced by a different, distinctive ring
signal. Only one call can be answered (or
made) at any one time and while this call is in
progress, incoming calls to either number will
be presented with a busy tone.
Your machine has a Distinctive Ring function,
allowing you to dedicate one phone number
just for receiving faxes.
Note
After you have set the Distinctive Ring
feature to On, the receive mode is set to
Manual automatically. If you don't have a
TAD or Voice Mail set up on the Distinctive
Ring number, Manual mode means you
must answer all the voice calls yourself.
You can not change the receive mode
from Manual mode while the Distinctive
Ring is set to on.

What is the Advantage of using
®
Telstra FaxStream
®
Using Telstra FaxStream
most efficient way to receive both fax and
telephone calls on the same line. When the
voice call comes in, all phones (extension
and external) and the fax machine will ring to
alert you to pick it up. If a fax call comes in,
the fax machine will answer automatically
without ringing, whereas the extension and
external phones will ring twice with a
distinctive ring pattern. It is also a more
efficient way of operating a Fax machine with
an extension phone as you do not have to use
the remote activation codes. It gives you two
independent numbers without the higher cost
of a second line.
