This machine feature lets you use the Distinctive Ringing subscriber service offered by Telstra's
®
FaxStream Duet, which allows you to have two separate telephone numbers on the one phone line.
Each phone number has its own Distinctive Ringing pattern, so you know which phone number is
ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number for your fax machine.
Your fax machine has a Distinctive Ringing function, allowing you to dedicate one phone number
just for receiving faxes.
