Manual Receive

There are two methods for receiving a fax manually:
• On Hook Dial: You can receive a fax call by pressing On Hook Dial and then pressing Start when
you hear a fax tone from the remote machine. The machine begins receiving a fax. If a handset is
available you can answer calls using the handset.

• Using an Extension Telephone: This feature works best when you are using an extension
telephone connected to the EXT socket on the back of your machine. You can receive a fax from
someone you are talking to on the extension telephone, without going to the fax machine. When
you receive a call on the extension phone and hear fax tones, press the keys *9* on the extension
phone. The machine receives the fax.
*9* is the remote receive code preset at the factory. The first and the last asterisks are fixed, but

Using an Answering Machine
To use this mode, you must attach an answering machine to the EXT socket on the back of your
machine. If the caller leaves a message, the answering machine stores the message as it would
normally. If your machine detects a fax tone on the line, it automatically starts to receive the fax.
Notes:
• If you have set your machine to this mode and your answering machine is switched off,
or no answering machine is connected to EXT socket, your machine automatically goes
into Fax mode after a predefined number of rings.
• If your answering machine has a user-selectable ring counter, set the machine to answer
incoming calls within 1 ring.
• If you are in Tel mode when the answering machine is connected to your machine, you
must switch off the answering machine. otherwise, the outgoing message from the
answering machine will interrupt your phone conversation.
Using DRPD Mode
Distinctive Ring is a telephone company service which enables a user to use a single telephone line to
answer several different telephone numbers. The particular number someone uses to call you is
identified by different ringing patterns, which consist of various combinations of long and short ringing
sounds. This feature is often used by answering services who answer telephones for many different
clients and need to know which number someone is calling in on to properly answer the phone.
Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) feature, your fax machine can learn the ring
pattern you designate to be answered by the fax machine. Unless you change it, this ringing pattern
will continue to be recognized and answered as a fax call, and all other ringing patterns will be
