T
O RECEIVE A DOCUMENT
You can set up the fax machine to receive the documents sent
by your correspondents in four separate modes:
•
Manual reception, for all occasions in which you are
present and you can therefore answer the calls yourself.
•
Automatic reception, for all occasions in which you are
out but want to receive documents anyway. This is the mode
originally set on your fax machine.
•
Automatic reception with recognition of the type of
call. In this reception mode, after a given number of rings
(default setting: 2 rings), the fax machine connects to the tel-
ephone line and is capable of recognizing whether the incom-
ing call is a fax call or a telephone call.
•
Reception with telephone answering device. In this re-
ception mode, the TAD receives the calls, records any mes-
sages left by the correspondent and, if he wants to send you
a document, enables the fax machine to receive it. See "The
Telephone Answering Device".

Once the document has been received, the display
shows the message "RX COMPLETED" for a few sec-
onds and then the initial stand-by mode.
A
UTOMATIC RECEPTION
After two rings, the fax machine prepares to receive a
document. The document is received as in manual re-
ception mode.
A
UTOMATIC RECEPTION WITH RECOGNITION OF THE
TYPE OF CALL
The action taken by the fax machine in this reception
mode depends on who is calling:
-
If the caller is another fax machine, after two rings
your fax machine automatically prepares to re-
ceive a document.
-
If the caller is a telephone, after two rings, the fax
machine emits an acoustic signal for about 20 sec-
onds and the display shows "LIFT HANDSET". If
you do not lift the receiver within 20 seconds, the
fax machine automatically prepares to receive a
document.
If you lift the receiver before the fax machine connects
to the telephone line and you hear the dialling tone,
proceed as follows:
1. Press the key:
2. Hang up.
Any kind of reception may be stopped by pressing the
key. The fax machine then returns to its initial stand-by mode.
