Telecom FaxAbility (New Zealand only)

Telecom N.Z. offers the FaxAbility capability. If you subscribe to this service, your line is assigned two numbers: one for fax and one for phone. When the fax number is called, the network sends a specific ringing tone which your fax recognizes and automatically handles as a fax call. If the phone number is called, a different ringing tone is sent out from the network so that the call is handled as a voice call. This means that there is no switching delay at the other party’s end.

Contact Telecom for connection information.

Operation for network switch system _________

The procedures for using the network switch system are almost the same as when using the fax over a normal telephone line. When you receive calls, however, the fax will respond slightly differently as described below.

When you hear the telephone call ring pattern:

Pick up the handset and talk normally. If you hear a slow beep, it means the call is from a fax machine trying to send a document. Press [Start/Copy] to receive the document. If you do not pick up the handset, the fax continues to ring until the other party hangs up. If an answering machine is connected*, it takes over the call.
