Redialing When the Line Is Busy

There are two methods of redialing: manual redialing and automatic redialing.

Manual Redialing

Press the Redial/Pause button to dial the last number you dialed with the numeric buttons. (This also starts redialing regardless of whether automatic redialing is enabled.)

Canceling Manual Redialing

To cancel manual redialing, press the Stop button.

Automatic Redialing

When you are using memory sending and the other party’s line is busy, the unit waits a specified time and then dials the same number again. You can set the MultiPASS to redial several times if the previous attempts failed because the line was busy. This feature is called automatic redialing.

After the initial dial attempt, the default setting is to wait two minutes and try to dial again. If the second attempt fails because the line was busy, the unit will again wait for two minutes and make a final attempt to complete the call. (Even if the MultiPASS is set to redial several times, it will redial only once if there is no tone or there is a ring back tone during the first attempt.)

You can turn automatic redialing off and on. Also, you can adjust the number of redialing attempts and the time interval between attempts.

You can set the Automatic Redialing features through the MultiPASS Fax Setup Utility or the operation panel. If you are using the MultiPASS Fax Setup Utility, see the online MultiPASS Desktop Manager Software Guide. If you are using the operation panel, see the online Standalone Fax Manual.

When using automatic redialing, the LCD display alternately displays AUTO REDIAL and the transaction number (TX/RX NO.) while it is waiting to redial.
