Your telephone with built-in answering machine or answering machine must be connected directly to the machine to use

By default, <FaxOnly> is selected in <1. RX MODE>. If an external telephone is connected to the machine and receives a fax or
voice call, the external telephone rings. You can answer voice calls while the external telephone is ringing.

DRPD (Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection) service assigns two or more telephone numbers with distinctive ring patterns to a
single telephone line, allowing you to have both a fax number(s) and a telephone number(s), using only one telephone line. Your
machine automatically monitors incoming calls and the ring pattern, to let you know if the call is a fax or voice call. Set the ring
patterns assigned by your telephone company for a fax or voice call. Contact your telephone company for information on
availability.
