•If you subscribe to first number distinctive ring service from your telephone company, the AFX-300 is preset to automatically transfer calls to your fax machine/fax modem, whether the call is a voice call or a call from a fax machine/fax modem or data modem (see “First Num- ber Distinctive Ring” on Page 35).
•If you have two phone lines and subscribe to a call roll- over feature from your telephone company, a fax call might roll over to the other line (the line not connected to the AFX-300) when your fax line is busy. If this happens, the AFX-300 cannot direct that call to your fax machine/ fax modem.
•If a caller’s fax machine does not sound fax alert (CNG) tones (tones that indicate the incoming call is a fax call), the AFX-300 cannot automatically switch the call to your fax machine/fax modem, but you can switch it manually (see “Switching Fax Calls Manually” on Page 24).
USING A TAD WITH THE AFX-300
If you connected a TAD to the AFX-300, you can let the TAD answer calls. How the AFX-300 operates depends on whether you connected only a fax machine/fax modem, or connected a fax machine/fax modem and a data modem.
