RECEIVING DOCUMENTS
This is a special function in FAX reception mode which is convenient for receiving
both faxes and voice calls. When it is turned on, your fax will detect whether an
incoming call is a voice call (including manually dialled fax transmissions), or an
automatically dialied fax. If it is a voice call, the fax will make a special ringing
sound to alert you to answer. If it is an automatically dialled fax transmission,
reception will begin automatically.
Caution!
. Tel/Fax Auto Changeoverwill not route voice calls to extension phone on the
same line as the fax machine. Do not use Tel/Fax Auto Changeover if you intend
to use one or more extension phone together with the fax machine.
Turning TeVFaxAuto Changeover on
Tel/Fax Auto Changeover is turned on by setting Option Setting 8 to "YES", The
procedure for doing this is described in Chapter 6, "Option Settings".
+ Make sure the reception mode is set to FAX.
Note: If Option Setting2 is set to a high number of rings, yourf% may not be able
to receive documents sent by automatic dialling, If you have difficulty receiv-
ing documents, change the setting of Option Setting 2 to a lower number.
How the function operates
When a call comes in, your fax will answer it after the number of rings set with
Option Setting 2. After answering, the fax monitors the line for about 5 seconds to
see if a fax tone is being sent.
+ If your fax detects a fax tone (this means that the call is an automatically dialled
fax), it will automatically begin reception of the incoming document,
+ If your fax doesn't detect a fax tone (this means that the call is a voice call or
manually dialled fax), it will make a special ringing sound (called pseudo ringing)
for 15 seconds to alert you to answer. If you don't answer within this time, your
fax will send a fax tone to the other machine to allow the calling party to send a
fax manually if they desire.
Note: The duration of pseudo ringing can be a@"usted with Option Setting 9. See
Chapter6, 'f O ptional Settings".
