Registering The Distinctive Ring Pattern; Very Important; Turning Off The Distinctive Ring - Brother FAX-565 User Manual

■
The fax machine will only answer calls to its registered number.
■
The first two rings are silent on the fax machine. This is because
the fax must «listen» to the ring pattern (to compare it to the
pattern that was 'registered'). (Other telephones on the same line
will ring.)
■
If you program the fax machine properly, it will recognize the
registered ring pattern of the 'fax number' within 2 ring patterns
and then answer with a fax tone. When the 'voice number' is
called, the fax machine will not answer.

Very important

After you have set the Distinctive Ring feature to ON, the receive
mode is set to MANUAL automatically. Unless you have a TAD or
Voice Mail set up on the Distinctive Ring number, MANUAL mode
means you must answer all the calls yourself. You can not change
the receive mode to the other mode while the Distinctive Ring is set
to on.
