Operation from an External or Extension Telephone

If you answer a fax call on an external or extension phone, you can make your MFC take over by using the Activation Code. When you press the Activation Code 5 1, the MFC starts to receive a fax.

If you answer a call at an extension or an external phone, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a fax. At an extension phone, press 5 1, wait for fax receiving tones (chirps), then hang up. At an external phone, press 5 1 and wait for the phone to be disconnected (the screen displays RECEIVING) before you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Start to send the fax.)

If you accidentally pick up an extension phone when a fax message is being received, you may disrupt the transmission or render some portions unreadable.

The Remote Activation Code also can be used by your callers. When you are using a external TAD, your outgoing message (OGM) should end with the statement “to send a fax, press 5 1”.
