Changing the Fax Forwarding Number

You can change the default setting of your fax forwarding number from a remote fax machine.

1Dial your fax machine’s number.

2When you hear the beep, immediately enter your Remote Access Code (1 5 9 ).

3When you hear two short beeps, use the dial pad to press 9 5 4.

4Enter the new number of the remote fax machine where you want your fax messages forwarded, and then press # #.

You cannot use and # as dial numbers. However, if you want to store a pause, press #. Also, if your fax machine is connected to a PABX, you can press # first before the fax machine’s number. The # works as well as R key.

5To retrieve the Memory Status List, when you hear two short beeps, use the dial pad to press 9 6 1.

6Use the dial pad to enter the number of the remote fax machine (up to 20 digits), and then press # #.

7After you hear your fax machine beep, hang up and wait.

Your fax machine calls the remote fax machine. Your fax machine then sends the Memory Status List showing the new forwarding number to the fax machine that you are calling from.

8Check the forwarding number.

If the forwarding number is incorrect, return to Step 1 to reset it.

There are some fax machines which, having completely received the MEMORY STATUS LIST from your machine, will give an audible “HANDSET UP” or similar alarm, if you keep the line held in readiness for the next command.

In such cases, it may be possible to clear the alarm and enter the next command (e.g. “962” for the RETRIEVE), by pressing the Stop once or twice on the receiving machine during the alarm beeping time. If this doesn’t work, simply replace the handset, pause, and redial the call, using then the “962” command after your machine answers and accepts your remote access code.
