If you have external or extension telephones
on the same line as the machine, choose the
maximum number of rings. (See Fax Detect
uu page 32 and Operation from external or

F/T Ring Time
5
(Fax/Tel mode only)
When somebody calls your machine, you and
5
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 uu page 38.)
