Setting The Options For Fax/Tel Auto Sw - Canon MultiPASS F50 Fax Manual

Setting the Options for FAX/TEL AUTO SW

If you set FAX/TEL AUTO SW, you can control precisely how the machine handles incoming calls by adjusting
the following settings:
• Adjust the time the machine takes to check whether a call is from a fax machine or a telephone (RING START
TIME setting).
• Adjust the length of time the machine rings when the call is a voice call (F/T RING TIME setting).
• Set whether the machine switches to receive mode after the ring time set in F/T RING TIME has elapsed
(DEFAULT ACTION setting).
• You can also set these options from the MultiPASS Suite. (→ MultiPASS Suite User's Guide)
