Use the following steps on the Compaq A1500 control panel to teach it the ring pattern it should answer:

1.Press Setup.

2.Press the Menu button until you see this display:

3.Press Start.

4.Call the telephone number that you want the distinctive ring pattern to recognize.

NOTE: You have three minutes to call the A1500 to learn the distinctive ring. If three minutes have passed, follow these steps again.

5.The A1500 will learn the ring pattern.

6.Press Setup then the Menu button to access the

FAX RECEIVE MODE menu. Press the Options button to select DRPD mode.

7.Press Start.

NOTE: DRPD mode is not available in the FAX RECEIVE MODE menu until a ring pattern has been successfully learned.

When the distinctive ring pattern is detected, the All- In-One answers the call on the second ring and receives a fax automatically. All other ring patterns will be ignored.
