Select Auto Receive
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.
This function has been turned off at the factory. If you want to turn it
on, reset Option Setting 14 as explained in Chapter 8, Option Settings.
Note: When this function is turned on, make sure that the answering
machine is set to answer on 4 rings or less. If it isn't, the fax will always
answer first, preventing callers from leaving voice messages.
Quiet Detect Start Timing
This setting can be used to delay the start of the Quiet Detect Time
function. For example, if you want to insert a pause at the beginning of
your answering machine's outgoing message to ensure clear detection
of fax signals, you can use this setting to delay the start of silence
detection so that the pause will not cause the fax to take over the line.
Quiet Detect Start Timing has been turned off at the factory. If you
want to use this function, turn it on by resetting Option Setting 12 to
the desired delay time (1 to 15 seconds). This procedure is explained
in Chapter 8, Option Settings. As a general guide, the delay time
should be slightly longer than the pause before the outgoing message.
Off Hook Hold
This setting can be used to make the fax automatically take over the
line and attempt reception after a set number of seconds.
For normal operation, we recommend that you do not turn this
function on; however, if you are having trouble receiving faxes in
A.M. mode, you can try various time settings to see if it helps. Turn
the function on by setting Option Setting 13 to the desired number of
seconds (1 to 255 seconds). This procedure is explained in Chapter 8,
Option Settings.
