Ring Delay

The Ring Delay sets the number of times the
machine rings before it answers in
Fax Only, Fax/Tel or TAD:Msg Mgr (for
FAX-1460 and FAX-1560) mode. If you have
external or extension phones on the same
line as the machine or subscribe to the
telephone company's BT Call Sign service,
choose the maximum number of rings. (see
Operation from extension
telephones on page 40 and Fax
Detect on page 31.)
(FAX-1460) If toll saver is on, then the ring
delay setting has no effect. (See Setting toll
saver on page 50.)

need to decide how long the machine will
signal you with its special pseudo/double-ring
when you have a voice call. If it's a fax call,
the machine receives the fax.
This pseudo/double-ring happens after the
initial ringing from the phone company. Only
the machine rings and no other phones on the
same line will ring with the special
pseudo/double-ring. However, you can still
answer the call on the same line as the
machine. (See Operation from extension
telephones on page 40.)

Even if the caller hangs up during the
pseudo/double-ringing, the machine will

phone connected to another wall
