Function no, Distinctive RING, SET

11RING RESPONSE: This function controls how long your OKIFAX waits before answering an incoming telephone call. The available settings are 1 RING (default), 5 SECONDS, 10 SECONDS, 15 SECONDS, or 20 SECONDS.

Note: At the default 1-ring setting, your OKIFAX answers calls immediately, and you will not hear any ring. If you need to hear the ring, change to one of the other settings.

12DISTINCTIVE RING: Distinctive ringing is a service offered by some telephone carriers. It lets you have different numbers on one line, each with its own distinctive ring. You can then use one number exclusively as a fax number without the ex- pense of a second line. (Your local telephone carrier can pro- vide you with more information about this service, which usually has an additional charge.) To use this function, refer to Setting Your Fax Machine’s Ring Pattern below. Available settings are OFF (default) and ON.

Notes:

■You must have your local telephone carrier’s Distinctive Ring service.

■Your OKIFAX must be in FAX or PC answer mode, and the PBX dial parameter must be set to OFF. Other modes– TEL, TEL/FAX, or TAD–will override Distinctive Ring.

■This feature may not work properly if you have a telephone other than a genuine Okidata optional handset connected to your OKIFAX.

7 Using a separate telephone line, dial the number assigned to the OKIFAX within 90 seconds—if you don’t have access to a second line, have someone else make the call for you. When your OKIFAX begins to ring, it automatically detects and remembers its assigned ring pattern. Be sure to let it ring until either RESULT=OK or RESULT=NG displays. When the OKIFAX has sucessfully finished programming its ring pattern, the display shows RESULT=OK.
