Setting the F/T Ring Time

You need to determine how long the machine will notify you with its special F/T pseudo-ring when you have a voice call. This ringing happens after the initial ringing from the phone company. Only the machine rings, for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds; no other phones on the same line ring the special F/T pseudo-ring. However, you can answer the call on any extension phone (in a separate wall socket) on the same line as the machine.

1Press Menu, 2, 2.

2Press or to select how long the machine will ring to alert you that you have a voice call.

3Press Set when the screen displays your selection.

RING TIME:30 SEC

4Press Stop to exit.

Now, when a call comes in and the machine is set to Fax/Tel (F/T) Mode, all phones on this line will ring the number of times you selected in Ring Delay.

You can let the machine pick up and detect if it’s a fax or voice call. If it’s a fax call, the machine prints the fax. If it’s a voice call, the machine signals you with an F/T pseudo-ring for the length of time you selected in F/T Ring Time.

Even if the caller hangs up during the F/T pseudo-ringing, the machine continues the F/T pseudo-ringing for the set time.
