Automatically Switching Between the Fax and an Answering Machine (TAD Reception)

This reception mode is convenient for using a separately purchased telephone with answering
machine capabilities together with this fax. If an incoming call is from a fax machine, fax reception
will begin automatically. If the call is from a telephone, the functions of the answering machine will
engage, so, even if you cannot answer, the caller will be able to leave a message.

Open the cover plate to the left and press the
TAD/Manual-Rx. key to light the TAD indicator.
TAD reception is only possible if a separately purchased telephone with answering machine
capabilities is connected to this fax machine.
Refer to the Instruction Manual for the telephone in use for details on recording and listening to
messages, etc.
BE SURE that the number of times your answering machine is set to ring is LESS than the
number of times the fax is set to ring. You can set the number of times the fax will ring. (See
Setting the Number of Rings [TAD Reception] ("Number of Rings" setting) on page 7-5.)
If you have selected TAD reception as the current reception mode, MAKE SURE that, in the
first minute after the telephone answers the incoming call, there are no silent pauses of 9
seconds or more [6 seconds or more for metric versions] in either the message you record or
the message you receive. If there is such a pause, the silence detection function of this fax will
be activated and the fax machine will switch to fax reception.
