Operation from extension telephones

If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, or an external
telephone into the correct socket (See Connections on page 1-9.),
you can make the fax machine take the call by using the Fax Receive
Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code
machine starts to receive a fax.
(See Fax Detect on page 5-5.)
If the fax machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for
you to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code
call at an extension phone. (See Setting the F/T Ring Time (FAX/TEL
mode only) on page 5-3.)
If you answer a call and no one is on the line, you should assume that
you're receiving a manual fax.

For FAX/TEL mode only

If you're at an extension or external phone, you'll need to lift the
handset during the F/T Ring Time and then press
double rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone wants to send you
a fax, send the call back to the fax machine by pressing
