Different Ways to Receive a Fax (5-2)
The MultiPASS C50 provides you with four different modes for receiving faxes.
To decide which mode will best suit your requirements, consider how you want to
use the MultiPASS C50:
JFAX ONLY MODE:Use this mode if the MultiPASS C50 will be connected
to a separate telephone line used only for transmitting faxes. The MultiPASS
C50 answers all calls, but accepts only those from fax machines and
disconnects all others.
JFax/Tel Mode:Use this mode if you will occasionally use the MultiPASS C50
as a telephone. In this mode, if an incoming call is a fax, the MultiPASS C50
then receives fax calls automatically, without ringing; if the call is from a
person, the MultiPASS C50 rings to alert you to pick up the handset to answer
the call. This mode is economical, in that it allows you to have phone and fax
service without the expense of an additional phone line.
JMANUAL MODE:Use this mode if you will frequently use the MultiPASS
C50 as a telephone and want to answer every call yourself, including fax calls.
The MultiPASS C50 then rings for every call, whether phone or fax, and you
must press the (START/COPY)button to begin receiving a fax.
JANS. MACHINE MODE:Use this mode if you plan to connect an answering
machine to the MultiPASS C50 to receive faxes and phone messages. The
MultiPASS C50 then receives incoming faxes normally, and routes incoming
phone calls to the answering machine.
