Redialing When the Line is Busy

There are two methods of redialing: Manual redialing and Automatic redialing. This
section explains these two methods.

Manual Redialing

Press Redial/Pause to dial the last number you dialed with the numeric buttons. (This
starts redialing regardless of whether automatic redialing is enabled.)

Canceling Manual Redialing

To cancel manual redialing, press Stop.

Automatic Redialing

What is Automatic Redialing?

When you are sending using memory sending and the other party's line is busy, the
unit waits the specified time and then dials the same number again. You can set the
MultiPASS to redial several times if previous attempts fail because of a busy signal.
This feature is called Automatic redialing.
After the initial dial attempt, the MultiPASS is factory-set to wait two minutes and then
try to dial again. If the second attempt fails because the line was busy, the MultiPASS
will again wait for two minutes and make a final attempt to complete the call.*
Automatic redialing can be turned off and on. The number of redialing attempts and the
time interval between attempts can also be adjusted. (1 p. 7-11)
If all redialing attempts are unsuccessful, the MultiPASS will cancel the transmission
and print an Error TX Report to remind you that the transmission was not completed.

The automatic redialing feature can also be set up from the MultiPASS Suite.
(1 MultiPASS Suite User's Guide)
When automatic redialing is in use, the LCD alternately displays AUTO REDIAL and the
transaction number (TX/RX NO.) while it is waiting to redial.

Canceling Automatic Redialing

Automatic redialing cannot be canceled with the Stop button while the unit is waiting to
redial.
Follow this procedure to cancel automatic redialing:
1
Wait until the MultiPASS begins redialing.
* Even if the MultiPASS is set to redial several times, it will redial only once if there is no tone or there is a
ring back tone during the first attempt.
