Single Fax Machine

The single fax machine setup (shown in Figure 4-6) is good for moderate traffic. The fax machine has its own line (Line A), the number of which is published as the fax number. (The fax line can be used by other phones when all other lines are busy.) The fax machine is connected to its own extension (extension X).

To Use

The fax machine automatically answers all calls that come in on the fax line. If a call comes in on another line, you can transfer the call to the fax extension (see “Transferring a Call to the Fax Machine”). If you have programmed a Fax Management button, you can transfer a call to the fax machine with a single touch, as well as monitor the status of the fax machine (see “Fax Management Feature” earlier in this chapter).

When you send a fax, the system automatically selects the fax line.

To Program

1.Set Automatic Line Selection for extension X to select line A only. Set Automatic Line Selection to select line A last on all other extensions or remove line A if all other extensions should not use it to make outgoing calls.

2.Set Line Ringing for line A on extension X to Immediate Ring. On all other extensions, set line A to Delayed Ring or No Ring.

3.Use Line Assignment (#301) to assign only line A to extension X.

4.Set Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to Assigned.

5.Make sure extension X is not assigned as a Pickup Group Extension (#501),

Calling Group Extension (#502), Night Service Group Extension (#504), or Hunt Group Extension (#505).

6.To monitor the fax machine, use Fax Machine Extensions (#601) to identify extension X as a fax extension and program a Fax Management button by programming the fax machine extension number on an Auto Dial button.
