Customizing the FAX/TEL SWITCH Feature

When you plan to use the MultiPASS 1000 for both fax communications and telephone calls, you set the FAX/TEL SWITCH to ON. The FAX/TEL SWITCH function also allows you to:

❏Change the amount of time the MultiPASS 1000 uses to check incoming calls

❏Change the number of times the MultiPASS 1000 rings when it receives a call

❏Set the MultiPASS 1000 to attempt to receive a fax or to immediately disconnect after receiving a call

When you set the FAX/TEL SWITCH to ON, you can also set these options.

❏RING START TIME

When a call comes in, the MultiPASS 1000 checks to see if it is a person wanting to talk to you or a fax machine trying to send a document. If your MultiPASS 1000 does not have enough time to detect the fax tone, it assumes the call is from a telephone.

Use the RING START TIME option to increase the time the MultiPASS 1000 takes to check whether a call is from a fax machine or a telephone. You can select a ring start time from 0 to 30 seconds; the default is 8 seconds.

❏F/T RING TIME

When your MultiPASS 1000 is set to receive both fax and telephone calls automatically, it rings to alert you to pick up the handset if the call is from a person. If you do not pick up the handset within a certain amount of time, the MultiPASS 1000 stops ringing. Use this option to change the number of times the MultiPASS 1000 rings, from 15 to 300 seconds. The default is 22.
