Using a non-Brother cordless
external handset 7
If your non-Brother cordless telephone is
connected to the EXT. jack of the machine
(see page 51) 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 transfer the call to the cordless
handset.
Using remote codes 7
Fax Receive Code 7
If you answer a fax call on an extension or
external telephone, you can tell your machine
to receive it by pressing the fax receive code
l51. Wait for the chirping sounds then
replace the handset. (See Easy receive
on page 42.)
Telephone Answer 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
(make sure you press this between the rings).
Changing the remote codes 7
The preset fax receive code is l51. The
preset telephone answer code is #51. If you
are always disconnected when accessing
your external TAD, try changing the
three-digit remote codes, for example ###
and 999.
