How to Use Remote Access and Control Codes

1. Call from a touch tone phone.
2. Enter your fax machine's number.
3. Enter your Remote Access Code immediately after your fax machine answers with a
beep.
4. If you hear a long beep, it means your machine has received fax message(s).
If you do not hear a long beep, it means your fax machine did not receive message(s).
5. Next you will hear a series of two short beeps, during which you can enter a Remote
Control Command.
6. Enter your Remote Control Command.
7. After finishing one command, you can enter the next command during the next series of
two short beeps.
8. Press 90 to exit remote control.
If you perform an incorrect operation, you will hear three short beeps.
If you wait more than 30 seconds during the series of two short beeps, your machine will
disconnect the line.

Remote Fax Retrieval

If you have set your FAX STORAGE: ON to store incoming fax messages, you have the
ability to retrieve these fax messages from any remote group 3 facsimile machine.
Remote fax retrieval is accomplished via remote control access commands, which are
described in the remainder of this chapter.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION

When to Enter the Remote Access Code

Just after the line is connected, you should enter the remote access code from any touch
tone phone. Make sure that you enter the remote access code while you do NOT hear any
chirping sound of a fax machine. If the fax machine is set to MANUAL mode, it will answer
the call within 40 rings (about 100seconds). You will have 30 seconds to press the remote
access code or the line will be disconnected.
