If the machine doesn't respond, or if
the other party first talks to you and
then wants to send a fax, set the

over to the machine, lift the
machine's handset, and press

The above step is necessary if you
have set the "FAX SIGNAL RX"
setting to NO (pp. 51 and 53).
Using the machine with an
existing answering system
If you have an answering system (in a
phone or other device) connected to the
same line as the machine and you want
to receive both faxes and voice
messages while you are out, follow
these steps.
1
Make sure that the machine's "FAX
SIGNAL RX" setting is set to YES
(pp. 51 and 53). (This enables the
machine to automatically begin fax
reception if it detects a fax tone after
the answering system answers a
call.)
2
Make sure your answering system's
greeting is no longer than 20
seconds, and insert several seconds
of silence at the beginning of the
greeting. (This will allow the
machine to clearly detect fax tones
when a fax is being sent.)
3
When you go out, make sure the
machine is set to TEL mode (
RECEPTION
until TEL appears in the
display ). (The machine should not
automatically answer calls; only the
answering system should answer.)

TEL/FAX (T/F) Mode
To select TEL/FAX mode, press
until T/F appears in the display.
When the reception mode is set to TEL/
FAX, the machine automatically
answers all calls on 4 rings (the number
of rings is fixed). After answering, the
machine monitors the line for about five
seconds to see if a fax tone is being
sent.
♦
If the machine detects a fax tone (this
means that the call is an automatically
dialed fax), it will automatically
receive the fax.
♦
If your machine doesn't detect a fax
tone (this means that the call is a
voice call or manually dialed fax), it
will make a special ringing sound for
15 seconds to alert you to pick up the
machine's handset (to change the
number of seconds, see p. 51 and
"PSEUDO RING DURATION" on p.
52). If you don't answer within this
time, the machine will send a fax tone
to the other machine to allow the
calling party to send a fax manually.
Note: Only the machine will make the
special ringing sound. An extension
phone will not ring after the machine
initially answers the call.
