Telephone Features
Use these instructions only if the system has fax machines connected
directly to the control unit via a 008 OPT or 012 module or connected to an
MLX telephone using a Multi-Function Module (MFM). These instructions are
not applicable to fax machines connected to an analog multiline telephone using
a General Purpose Adaptor (GPA).
Fax Message Waiting Receiver allows you to designate from one to four
telephones to receive message-waiting indications when a fax is received on a
specific fax machine. Fax machines can only send message-waiting indications;
they cannot receive message-waiting indications from other fax machines.
You can specify the Fax Message Threshold, which is the length of time
(0-30 seconds) before the system assumes a fax has arrived and sends the
message-waiting indication. The factory setting is 10 seconds.
