Outgoing Message (OGM) of External TAD

Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.

1 We recommend the outgoing message (OGM) is no longer than 20 seconds.

2 Allow 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message.

(This allows the fax to detect the calling tone prior to OGM, so reception can be faster.)

3 We recommend that you end your OGM by giving your Remote Activation Code for people sending manual faxes. For example:

“After the beep, leave a message or send a fax manually by pressing 51 ( 91 for New Zealand) and Fax Start.”

Please note that some faxes that are sent manually cannot be received automatically because some fax machines do not send a fax tone if the call is manually dialled. In these cases you must inform callers that they must enter the remote activation code to send a fax.

Connecting an External Telephone

Your FAX/MFC is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular phone. However, you can also connect a separate telephone to your FAX/MFC, as shown below.

(Example for Australia)

Whenever this external phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays EXT. TEL IN USE, and, if the FAX/MFC’s handset is lifted, an alarm sounds.

To disconnect the call on the external phone and switch to the FAX/MFC, lift the handset and press

Hook.
