For Fax/Tel mode only

When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (pseudo/double- ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call.

Lift the external telephone’s handset, and then press Hook to answer.

If you are at an extension telephone, you will need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time and then press #51 between the pseudo/double rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back to the machine by pressing l51.

Connecting an external or extension telephone

You can connect a separate telephone directly to your machine as shown in the diagram below.

Connect the telephone line cord to the jack labeled EXT.

Before you connect the external telephone, remove the protective cap (3) from the EXT. jack on the machine.

Telephone services and external devices

Using a non-Brother cordless external handset

If your non-Brother cordless telephone is connected to the EXT. jack of the machine (see page 61) 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

Fax Receive Code

If you answer a fax call on an extension

telephone, you can tell your machine to 7 receive it by pressing the Fax Receive Code l51. Wait for the chirping sounds then

replace the handset. (See Easy Receive on page 51.)

If you answer a fax call at the external telephone, you can make the machine receive the fax by pressing Start and choosing Receive.

Telephone Answer Code

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).

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.
