Advanced Receiving Operations
Operation from External or Extension Telephone
If you answer a fax call on an extension phone or on an external phone in the EXT. jack, you can make your fax machine take over by using the Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code 
5 1, the fax machine starts to receive a fax. (See Easy Receive, page
If the fax machine answers a voice call and
Setting F/T Ring Time, page 5-3.)
If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a fax. At the fax machine phone, press Start, then hang up. At an extension phone, press 
5 1, wait for fax receiving tones (chirps), then hang up. At an external phone, press
5 1 and wait for the phone to be disconnected (the screen displays RECEIVE) before you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Start to send the fax.)
For FAX/TEL Mode Only
When the fax machine is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (double ringing) to alert you to a voice call. If you’re at the fax machine, you can lift the handset to answer.
If you’re at an extension phone, you’ll need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time and press # 5 1 between the double rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back to the fax machine by pressing 
5 1.
Changing Remote Codes
Remote Codes might not work with some telephone systems. The preset Fax Receive Code is 
5 1. The preset Telephone Answer Code is # 5 1.
If you are always disconnected when accessing your external TAD remotely, try changing the Fax Receive Code from 
5 1 to # # # and the Telephone Answer Code from # 5 1 to 9 9 9.
