BT call sign (U.K. only)

The BT Call Sign subscriber service is a way
to have a separate number for your machine,
it allows you to have at least two separate
telephone numbers on one phone line. Each
phone number has its own distinctive ringing
pattern.
You can set up your machine so that it only
responds to the second number.
When you set the BT Call Sign feature to ON,
the receive mode is set to Manual
automatically. Manual mode will not respond
to incoming telephone calls, since the
number you use for telephone calls will use
the normal ring pattern. If you turn the feature
off, your receive mode will remain on
Manual.
To enable the machine to work with BT

Voice Mail

If you have Voice Mail on the same telephone
line as your machine, Voice Mail and the
machine will conflict with each other when
receiving incoming calls.
For example, if your Voice Mail is set to
answer after 4 rings and your machine is set
to answer after 2 rings, then your machine will
answer first. This will prevent callers from
being able to leave a message in your Voice
Mail.
Similarly, if your machine is set to answer
after 4 rings and your Voice Mail is set to
answer after 2 rings, then your Voice Mail will
answer first. This will prevent your machine
from being able to receive an incoming fax,

since Voice Mail cannot transfer the incoming
fax back to the machine.
To avoid conflicts between your machine and
your Voice Mail service, do one of the
following:
Get the Distinctive Ring service from your
telephone company. Distinctive Ring is a
feature of your machine that allows a person
with one line to receive fax and voice calls
through two different telephone numbers on
that one line. We use the term 'Distinctive
Ring,' but telephone companies market the
service under a variety of names, such as
Custom Ringing, Personalized Ring, Smart
Ring, RingMaster, Ident-A-Ring, Ident-A-Call,
Data Ident-A-Call, Teen Ring, and SimpleBiz
Fax & Alternate Number Ringing. This
service establishes a second telephone
number on the same line as your existing
telephone number, and each number has its
own ring pattern. Typically, the original
number rings with the standard ring pattern
and is used for receiving voice calls, and the
second number rings with a different ring
pattern and is used for receiving faxes. (See
Voice Mail on page 46.)
