Optional A.M. Mode Settings

If necessary, you can use the following settings to improve the

response of the answering machine connection to incoming calls.

Quiet Detect Time

This function causes the fax machine to take over the line and begin

reception if a certain duration of silence is detected after the

answering machine answers.

Time selections for the period of silence are 1 to 10 seconds. Quiet

Detect Time has been set to 4 seconds at the factory. This gives the

best performance with most answering machines; however, you may

need to adjust this setting depending on the disconnect time of your

answering machine.

Some answering machines may have unusually fast disconnect times

(equal to or very slightly less than 4 seconds), which means that the

answering machine may disconnect the line before fax reception can

begin. In this case, try a Quiet Detect Time setting of about 3 seconds.

If the fax machine is interrupting callers before they can leave a

message, try a longer Quiet Detect Time setting. If your outgoing

message includes a period of silence, make sure that the setting is

longer than that period of silence, or re-record your outgoing message

to shorten the silence.

Note: Quiet Detect Time can be turned off by entering "00" for the time.

Note, however, that the fax machine will not be able to receive faxes sent

manually by Normal Dialling.
