The MultiPASS C70 provides you with several modes for receiving faxes. To decide which mode will best suit your requirements, consider how you want to use the MultiPASS C70:
❏FAX ONLY MODE (2 p.
Use this mode if the MultiPASS C70 will be connected to a separate telephone line used only for faxing. The MultiPASS C70 then answers all calls, and receives all faxes automatically.
❏Fax/Tel Mode (2 p.
Use this mode if you will occasionally use the MultiPASS C70 as a telephone. In this mode, if an incoming call is from a fax machine, the MultiPASS C70 receives the faxes automatically, without ringing; if the call is from a person, the MultiPASS C70 rings to alert you to pick up the handset or the telephone (connected to your unit) to answer the call. This mode is economical, in that it allows you to have telephone and fax service without the expense of an additional telephone line.
This mode also includes settings that let you control precisely how it
handles incoming calls. To adjust these via the operation panel, refer to the instructions later in this chapter (1 p.
adjust these settings from the MultiPASS Desktop Manager. (1 MultiPASS Suite Software User’s Guide)
❏MANUAL MODE (2 p.
Use this mode if you will frequently use the MultiPASS C70 to receive voice calls through the handset, telephone, or extension phone connected to your unit and want to answer every call yourself, including fax calls. The MultiPASS C70 then rings for every call, whether telephone or fax, and you must press the Start/Scan button to begin receiving a fax.
❏ANS.MACHINE MODE (2 p.
Use this mode if you plan to connect an answering machine to the MultiPASS C70 to receive faxes and telephone messages. The MultiPASS C70 then receives incoming faxes normally, and routes incoming telephone calls to the answering machine.
