Setting the F/T Ring Time (Only Applies to F/T Receiving Mode)

You need to determine how long the machine will give 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 fax machine rings for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds; no other phones (extension or external) on the same line rings during the special F/T pseudo-ring.

1Press Menu/Set, 2, 2.

2Press or to select how long the machine will ring to alert you that you have a voice call, and press Menu/Set when the screen displays your selection.

3Press Stop/Exit.

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

Please note that some faxes cannot be received automatically in F/T mode, because some fax machines do not send the standard Group 3 calling tone (“CNG”), but this is not common.

This machine does not generate F/T ringing tones to any extension telephones. Any such extension telephones will only ring during the period set on ring delay.

Recording the Fax/Tel Outgoing Announcement (FAX/TEL OGM) (Only for FAX-737MC)

This is the announcement played by your machine (not an external TAD) when someone calls and your machine is set to F/T mode. Although callers hear your announcement, they cannot leave a message. See Erasing the Outgoing Message (OGM), page 67 for directions to erase the announcement. The purpose of this F/T message is for the callers to better understand the status of their call, when your machine is set in F/T receiving mode. If you want to use Message Centre, you MUST record the Message Centre OGM.

1Press Menu/Set, 8, 3. The screen prompts you to choose FAX/TEL OGM, MSG CTR OGM or PAGING OGM.

2Press or to select FAX/TEL OGM, and press Menu/Set.

3Press or to select RECORD MSG and press Menu/Set, then pick up the handset to record a message.

4Replace the handset. Your announcement is played.

5Press Stop/Exit.
