Fax Ready
Use Fax Ready if you
have
a dedicated line for the fax and
receive
voice calls
on a separate line. In Fax Ready, your fax answers all calls after a number of
rings you determine (see page 21), exchanges standard fax
tones
with the trans-
mitting
unit,
and then attempts reception.
To select Fax Ready:
1. Make
sure
that the
Auto
Answer
feature is enabled by pressing
Auto Answer
until the Auto Answer
light is
lit.
2. Press
---7/Program, J, 1, 3, Mode/Enter.
Press~
or
---7/Program
until
the
dis-
play shows
"Fax
Ready,"
as shown
below. Then press
Mode/Enter.

Ans/Fax Ready
Choose the Ans/Fax Ready option if you are using an answering
machine
or a
second telephone with your fax
machine.
Using an Answering Machine With Your Fax Machine
Important:
This
discussion
assumes
you've already properly connected your
answering machine
to your fax machine and set
the
answering
machine to
answer
after
no
fewer than two rings (see page 15).
When your fax
machine is in
Ans/Fax Ready and a call comes in, the answering
machine answers first. Your fax
listens
silentl
y while your
answering
machine's
outgoing
message plays;
callers making voice calls
won't know the
fax
is there.
But,
if
your
fax
detects
standard fax transmission
tones
at any
time, it
will
dis-
connect your answering
machine
and
begin
reception
.
To
put
your
fax
in
Ans/Fax Ready:
1.
Press
---7/Program, J,
1,
3, Mode/Enter.
Press~
or
---7/Program
until
the
dis-
play
shows "Ans/Fax Ready." Then press
Mode/Enter.
2.
Modify
your answering machine's outgoing message (see page
15).

Operating
Instructi
ons
Using a Second Phone With Your Fax Machine
Your Muratec fax
machine lets
you
combine
the mobility offered by your
cordless phone (or any other second telephone which normally connects with a
regular wall jack) with the convenience of fax communication.
To attach a second phone to your fax machine, attach the phone cord from the
second phone to the EXT. TEL jack on the back of your fax machine;
then,
put
your fax machine
in
Ans/Fax Ready. This allows you to conduct normal conver-
sations on your second
phone.
If you receive a fax call while on the second
phone, simply hang up. Your fax machine will automatically attempt reception.
In Ans/Fax
Ready,
your fax always assumes a fax may be coming in. Each time
you hang up, your fax listens for the
tones
signaling an incoming fax, so you
may have to wait momentarily to
dial
out again. If your fax hears no
tones,
it
will free the line. You may occasionally notice that when you answer the second
telephone, the line will
immediately
go dead. This means your fax recognized
fax tones when you answered the phone and is now receiving the fax
.
Tel/Fax Ready
Tel/Fax Ready
is ideal if
you
do not have
a dedicated fax
line
and you receive
an equal
mix
of fax and voice calls. In Tel/Fax Ready, your fax:
•
Begins reception automatically
on
incoming fax calls
•
Sounds a special ring for about
30
seconds for voice calls.
In Tel/Fax Ready, you
can
still answer calls
manually
before your fax answers
(see
page
25). To
use the
Tel/Fax Ready
mode:
1.
Press
Auto Answer
until the Auto
Answer
light is lit.
2. Press
---7/Program,
J,
1, 3,
Mode/
Enter.
Press
~
or
---7/Program
until
the
display
shows "Tel/Fax
Ready."
3. Let
your fax
answer
all
your
calls.
Pick up the fa
x
handset only
when
you
hear
the
special
ring telling you
a person is calling
.
