Using a non-Brother cordless external telephone

If your non-Brother cordless telephone is connected to the EXT. jack of the machine and you typically carry the cordless handset elsewhere, it is easier to answer calls during the Ring Delay.

If you let the machine answer first, you will have to go to the machine so you can press Hook to send the call to the cordless handset.

Using remote codes

Fax Receive Code

If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, you can tell your machine to receive it by dialing the Fax Receive Code

l5 1. Wait for the chirping sounds and then replace the handset. (See Easy Receive on page 39.)

If you answer a fax call at the external telephone connected to the EXT. jack of the machine, you can make the machine receive the fax by pressing Black Start and choosing Receive.

Telephone Answer Code

If you receive a voice call and the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will start to sound the F/T (pseudo/double) ring after the initial Ring Delay. If you pick up the call on an extension telephone you can turn the F/T Ring off by pressing # 5 1 (make sure you press this between the rings).

If the machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, you can take the call at the external telephone connected to the EXT. jack of the machine by pressing Hook.

Changing the remote codes

The preset Fax Receive Code is l 5 1. The preset Telephone Answer Code is # 5 1. If you want to, you can replace them with your own codes.
