Ring Delay

The Ring Delay setting sets the number of times the machine rings before it answers in Fax Only and Fax/Tel modes.

If you have external or extension telephones on the same line as the machine, choose the maximum number of rings. (See Operation from external or extension telephones

on page 39 and Fax Detect on page 31.)

a Make sure you are in Fax mode . b Press Menu, 2, 1, 1.

F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only)

When somebody calls your machine, you and your caller will hear the normal telephone ring sound. The number of rings is set by the Ring Delay setting.

If the call is a fax, then your machine will receive it; however, if it is a voice call the machine will sound the F/T ring (a fast double-ring) for the time you have set in the F/T Ring Time setting. If you hear the F/T ring it means that you have a voice caller on the line.

Because the F/T ring is made by the machine, extension and external telephones will not ring; however, you can still answer the call on any telephone. (For more information, see Using Remote Codes on page 40.)

a Make sure you are in Fax mode . b Press Menu, 2, 1, 2.

c Press a or b to choose how long the machine will ring to alert you that you have a voice call (20, 30, 40 or

70 seconds for Australia and some countries, 20, 30, 40 or 55 seconds for New Zealand.).

Press OK.

d Press Stop/Exit.
