Operation from extension
telephones 7
If you answer a fax call on an extension or an
external telephone plugged into the correct
socket on the machine, you can make your
machine take the call by using the Remote
Activation Code. When you press the Remote
Activation Code l51 (l 9 1 for New
Zealand), the machine starts to receive the
fax.
If the machine answers a voice call and
pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, use
the Remote Deactivation Code #51 (# 9 1 for
New Zealand) to take the call at an extension
telephone. (See F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel
mode only) on page 32.)
If you answer a call and no one is on
the line: 7
You should assume that you're receiving a
manual fax.
Press l 51 (l 9 1 for New Zealand) and wait
for the chirp or until the LCD shows
Receiving, and then hang up.
Note
You can also use the Fax Detect feature to
make your machine automatically take the
call. (See Fax Detect on page 33)
Using remote codes 7
Remote Activation Code 7
If you answer a fax call on an extension or
external telephone, you can tell your machine
to receive it by dialling the Remote Activation
Code l51 (l 9 1 for New Zealand). Wait for
the chirping sounds then replace the handset.
See Fax Detect on page 33. Your caller will
have to press Start to send the fax.
Remote Deactivation Code 7
If you receive a voice call and the machine is
in F/T mode, it will start to sound the F/T
(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 #51
(# 9 1 for New Zealand) (make sure you press
this between the rings).
Changing the remote codes 7
If you want to use Remote Activation, you
have to turn on the remote codes. The preset
Remote Activation Code is l51 (l 9 1 for
New Zealand). The preset Remote
Deactivation Code is #51 (# 9 1 for New
Zealand). If you want to, you can replace
them with your own codes.
