OPTIONAL HOOK-UP SETTINGS
If it still doesn't work...
With certain answering machines, it may not be possible to find a Quiet Detect Time
setting which will allow both fax reception and uninterrupted voice message recording.
In this case, callers on tone dial lines can still send faxes by pressing "5", "Jc", and "Jc"
on their fax. This is the code for activating fax reception which can be changed by
resetting Option Setting 8.
To use this method, turn off Quiet Detect Time by entering "00" in Step 3 of the above
procedure, and then change your outgoing message to inform callers with tone dial
telephones that they can send a fax by pressing "5", "*", "Jc", and then their Start key.
The message might go as follows:
"Hello. You've reached the ABC company. No one is available to take your call right
now. After the
beep, please leave a
message, or, if you want to send a fax and are
calling on a touch-tone line, press 'five' once, 'asterisk' twice, and then your facsimile
Start key."
When this function is turned on, your fax will answer the call after 5 rings if the
answering machine for some reason fails to answer before that time. This ensures
that you will receive fax messages even if the answering machine's tape fills up or the
answering machine is not turned on.
+ The factory setting is "NO" (off).
Note:
When this function is turned on, make sure that the answering machine is set to answer
on 4 rings or less. If if isn't, the fax will always answer first, preventing callers from
leaving voice messages.
