Telephone and External devices

Voice Operations

Voice calls can be made either with an
extension or external telephone, by dialling
manually, or by using Speed Dial numbers.

Tone or pulse

If you are using an external telephone and
have a pulse dialling service, but need to
send tone signals (for example, for telephone
banking), follow the instructions below.
a
Lift the handset of the external
telephone.
b
Press # on the control panel of your
machine. Any digits dialled after this will
send tone signals.
When you hang up, the machine will
return to the pulse dialling service.

Fax/Tel mode

When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will
use the F/T Ring Time
(pseudo/double-ringing) to alert you to pick
up a voice call.
If you are at an external telephone, lift the
handset of the external telephone, and then
press Hook to answer.
If you are at an extension telephone, you'll
need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring
Time and then press # 5 1 between the
pseudo/double-rings. If no one is on the line,
or if someone wants to send you a fax, send
the call back to the machine by pressing
l 5 1.

condition. The machine will not answer
telephone or fax calls and will keep ringing. If
you are at an external or extension
telephone, lift the handset and talk. If you
hear fax tones, hold the handset until Fax
Detect activates your machine. If the other
party says they want to send you a fax,
activate the machine by pressing l 5 1.
