Setting The Reception Mode - Sharp AR-FX11 Operation Manual

SETTING THE RECEPTION MODE

The machine normally receives faxes automatically after ringing; however, when an extension phone is connected,
you can set the reception mode to MANUAL. This will allow you to talk to the other party first and then receive a fax.
This is convenient when you only have one telephone line and receive more voice calls than faxes. You must
answer all calls on the extension phone, and activate fax reception after you verify that a call is a fax transmission.

Activating fax reception from an extension phone (remote reception)

"remote reception". After speaking, or when you hear a fax tone through the extension phone, perform the following
procedure with the extension phone still lifted. (If you made the call, remote reception will not be possible.)
The following procedure is not possible if you are on a pulse dial line and your extension phone cannot produce

tone signals. To find out whether your extension phone can produce tone signals, refer to the manual for your
extension phone.

If you are on a pulse dial line, set your

issue tone signals.
If your phone is already set to issue tone signals,
proceed to the next step.
The one-digit number that is used to activate fax reception from an extension phone (initially set to "5") is called
