Setting Ring Delay

The Ring Delay setting determines the number of times the machine rings
before it answers. If you have extension phones on the same line as the machine,
keep the Ring Delay default setting of 4. (See
Operation from Extension Telephone or External Telephone

Setting F/T Ring Time (For FAX/TEL Mode Only)

If you set the receive mode to FAX/TEL, you'll need to determine how long the
machine will send you its special double-ring when you have a voice call. This
ringing happens after the initial ringing from the phone company. Only the
machine rings, for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds; no other phones on the same line
ring the special double-ring. However, you can answer the call on any extension
phone (in a separate wall jack) on the same line as the machine. (See Operation
from Extension Telephone, page 5-5.)

Now, when a call comes in and the
machine is set to FAX/TEL mode, all
phones on this line will ring the number of times you selected in Ring Delay.
You can let the machine pick up and detect if it's a fax or voice call. If it's a fax
call, the machine prints the fax. If it's a voice call, the machine signals you with
a double-ring for the length of time you selected in F/T Ring Time.
Even if the caller hangs up during the double-ringing, the machine continues
for the set time.
