Advanced Receiving Operations

Operation from Extension Telephone or External Telephone

If you answer a fax call on an extension phone (or on an external phone in the EXT. jack), you can make your machine take over by using the Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code 5 1, the machine starts to receive a fax. (See Setting Ring Delay, Page 5-2and Easy Receive, Page 5-3.)

If the machine answers a voice call and double-rings for you to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone.

If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a fax. At the machine’s phone, press Fax 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 LCD shows RECEIVING) before you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Fax Start to send the fax.)

For FAX/TEL Mode Only

When the machine is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (double- ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call. If you’re at the 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 then 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 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.
