How to Use Remote Access and Control Codes

1.Call from a touch tone phone or pocket tone dialler.

2.Enter your fax machine’s number.

3.Enter your Remote Access Code immediately after your fax machine answers with a beep and before any OGM is played.

4.If you hear a long beep, it means your machine has received messages:

One long beep:

Received FAX message(s).

Two long beeps:

Received TAD message(s).

Three long beeps:

Received both FAX and TAD message(s).

If you do not hear any long beeps, it means your fax machine did not receive message(s).

5.Next you will hear a series of two short beeps, during which you can enter a Remote Control Command.

6.Enter a Remote Control Command.

7.After finishing one command, you can enter the next command during another series of two short beeps.

8.Press 90 to exit remote control.

If you perform a wrong operation, you will hear three short beeps.

If you wait more than 30 seconds during the series of two short beeps, your machine will disconnect the line.

Remote Retrieval

If you have set your Message Manager to store incoming fax messages (via DOC.: ON mode), you have the ability to retrieve these fax messages from any remote group 3 facsimile machine.

Of course you can also remotely retrieve your voice messages as well from any touch tone phone or from any phone if you use a pocket tone dialler.

Remote fax and voice retrieval is accomplished via remote control access commands, which are described in the remainder of this chapter.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION

When to Press the Remote Access Code

At the point just after the line has connected and you hear a beep, you should enter the remote activation access code from a touch-tone phone. In the MANUAL mode, you can still connect by waiting for about 100 seconds, and then pressing the Remote Access code within 30 seconds.

Starting with the Brother Fax-1020Plus, this model is prized for its compact design and ease of use. It features a 14.4 Kbps modem, enabling relatively fast fax transmission and reception, ensuring that important documents can be sent and received quickly.

Additionally, it offers a built-in phone line compatibility, enabling it to function as a regular telephone in addition to its fax capabilities.
