  • Page 24: Selecting The Reception Mode

    SELECTING THE RECEPTION MODE Your fax has three modes for receiving incoming calls and faxes: TAD mode: Select this mode when you are out and want the built-in answering machine to answer all calls. Voice messages will be recorded, and fax messages will be received automatically.

  • Page 25: Answering Machine Set-Up

    ANSWERING MACHINE SET-UP About the answering machine The FO-1650/1850’s built-in answering machine allows you to receive both voice messages and fax transmissions while you are out. Up to 24 minutes of voice messages can be recorded when no documents are stored in memory (memory capacity will vary depending on current memory features in use).
  • Page 26 ANSWERING MACHINE SET-UP Recording an outgoing message To use the built-in answering machine, you must first record a general outgoing message. This must be done even if you only intend to use personal boxes. An outgoing message for each personal box used must also be recorded. A personal box cannot be accessed if it does not have an outgoing message.
  • Page 27 ANSWERING MACHINE SET-UP Pick up the handset and speak into it. The general outgoing message can be up to 60 seconds long. A personal outgoing message can be up to 30 seconds long. While recording, the display will show the time remaining to record. When finished, replace the handset or S T O P STOP...
  • Page 28 ANSWERING MACHINE SET-UP Programming a passcode A 3-digit passcode can be programmed for each of the boxes. If this is done, the passcode must be entered before messages in the box can be listened to or erased. Program a new passcode or clear a previously programmed passcode by pressing the panel keys as shown below.
  • Page 29 ANSWERING MACHINE SET-UP Fax reception in boxes As explained at the beginning of this section, a caller can press their Start key after accessing a box to send a fax to that box. In this case, the fax will not be printed out until you listen to the messages in the box.
  • Page 30 ANSWERING MACHINE SET-UP Setting ICM time Incoming messages (ICMs) are the messages which callers leave for you on the built-in answering machine. The answering machine is set at the factory to allow each caller a maximum of 4 minutes to leave a message. If desired, you can change this setting to 15, 30, or 60 seconds.
  • Page 31 ANSWERING MACHINE SET-UP Fax reception on TAD failure If the memory for recording incoming messages becomes full while you are out, the answering machine will no longer be able to record messages. The ON TAD FAILURE setting is used to choose the response of the machine to incoming calls when this happens: Automatic fax reception "NO": The FO-1650/1850 will answer after 20 rings, after which it will wait to receive a remote command.
  • Page 32 ANSWERING MACHINE SET-UP Calling Party Control detection When a caller hangs up, the central telephone exchange will issue a signal called a Calling Party Control (CPC) signal. The built-in answering machine has been set to detect this signal, and this allows it to immediately stop recording when a caller hangs up, thereby saving memory space and freeing you from having to listen to long periods of silence when you play back your messages.

  • Page 33: Distinctive Ringing

    DISTINCTIVE RINGING Distinctive ringing in FAX mode Distinctive ringing is a service offered by some local telephone companies which allows you to use up to four different telephone numbers, each with a different ringing pattern, on your regular single line. If you subscribe to a distinctive ringing service, you can set your fax to automatically answer when it detects one of those ringing patterns, thereby allowing you to use the number corresponding to that pattern as an exclusive fax number.
  • Page 34 DISTINCTIVE RINGING Press the keys shown at left. "OPTION FUNCTION SETTING" will appear in the display. Press the keys shown at left. "DISTINC- TIVE RING" will appear in the display. Select a ringing pattern by entering the appropriate number ("1" to "5" as shown in the list on the previous page).
  • Page 35 DISTINCTIVE RINGING Note that the above assignment of ringing patterns to boxes is not affected by the distinctive ringing setting for FAX mode described on the previous page. The above assignment is effective when the fax is in TAD mode, and the selection made for FAX mode is effective when the fax is in FAX mode.

  • Page 41: Fax Operations

    FAX OPERATIONS SENDING DOCUMENTS Transmittable documents Your fax can transmit most standard office documents.

One sheet at a time: 39.4"...
  • Page 42 SENDING DOCUMENTS Loading the document Up to 20 pages can be placed in the feeder at one time. The pages will be automatically fed into the fax starting from the page on the bottom. If you need to send or copy more than 20 pages, place the additional pages gently and carefully in the feeder just before the last page is scanned.
  • Page 43 SENDING DOCUMENTS Optional transmission settings If desired, there are several transmission settings which you can make before dialing and transmitting the document. Note: To make the settings, the document must first be loaded in the feeder. Resolution Your fax has four resolution settings. If you do not make a setting, the fax will automatically send the document in STANDARD resolution.
  • Page 44 SENDING DOCUMENTS Cover Sheet You can have your fax generate a cover sheet and send it as the last page of the transmission. The cover sheet includes the date and time, the sender’s name and number, and the receiver’s name and number if an automatic dialing number is used.
