Ring delay

The ring delay sets the number of times the
machine rings before it answers in Fax Only
and Fax/Tel modes.
If you have external or extension telephones
on the same line as the machine choose the
maximum number of rings. (See Operation
from extension telephones on page 49 and
Fax Detect on page 43.)

F/T ring time (Fax/Tel mode
only)
When somebody calls your machine, you and
your caller will hear the normal telephone ring
sound. The number of rings is set by the ring
delay setting.
If the call is a fax, then your machine will
receive it; however, if it is a voice call the
machine will sound the F/T ring (a fast
double-ring) for the time you have set in the
F/T ring time setting. If you hear the F/T ring
it means that you have a voice caller on the
line.
Because the F/T ring is made by the machine,
extension and external telephones will not
ring; however, you can still answer the call on
any telephone. (For more information see
Using remote codes on page 51.)

Fax Detect

Turning Fax Detect On (default setting) allows
the machine to receive fax calls automatically
if you lift any handset on the same line as the
.
machine.
When you see Receiving on the LCD or
when you hear 'chirps' through the handset
you are using, just replace the handset and
your machine will receive the fax.
If this feature is set to On, but your machine
does not connect a fax call when you lift the
handset of an extension or external
telephone, press l51 on the external or
extension phone. (See Operation from
extension telephones on page 49.)
