Custom Features
Your fax machine supports the Distinctive Ring and Caller ID telephone services offered by some telephone companies.
If you have Call Waiting, Ring Master, Voice Mail, an answering service or an alarm system or other custom feature on your telephone line, it may create a problem in the operation of your fax machine. The Distinctive Ring and Caller ID feature may not be available in certain area.
Distinctive Ring (For Singapore and Hong Kong)
This fax machine feature lets you use the Distinctive Ring subscriber service offered by some telephone companies, which allows you to have several telephone numbers on one phone line. Each phone number has its own Distinctive Ring pattern, so you know which phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number for your fax machine.
Your fax machine has a Distinctive Ring function, allowing you to dedicate one phone number just for receiving faxes. You’ll need to set Distinctive Ringing to ON.
You can switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax number, make sure you reset this function.
■The fax machine will answer only calls to the Distinctive Ringing number.
■To have your TAD answer only the main number, the fax machine must be in Manual Mode.
■In FAX/TEL or FAX ONLY mode, the fax machine will answer all numbers on the phone line.
■The first two rings are silent on the fax machine.
