To Use
The fax machine automatically answers all calls that come in on the fax line. If a call comes in on another line, you can transfer the call to the fax extension (see “Transferring a Call to the Fax Machine”). If you have programmed a Fax Management button, you can transfer a call to the fax machine with a single touch, as well as monitor the status of the fax machine (see “Fax Management Feature” earlier in this chapter).
When you send a fax, the system automatically selects the fax line.
To Program
1.If extension X is a key extension, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign only line A to extension X.
If extension X is a pooled extension, use Pool Line Assignment (#207) to remove line A from all pools and then use Line Assignment (#301) to assign only line A to extension X.
2.Set Automatic Line Selection for extension X to select line A only. Set Automatic Line Selection to select line A last on all other extensions.
3.Set Line Ringing for line A on extension X to Immediate Ring. On all other extensions, set line A to Delayed Ring or No Ring.
4.Set Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to Assigned.
5.Make sure extension X is not assigned as a Call Waiting (#316) extension,
Pickup Group Extension (#501), Calling Group Extension (#502), Night Service Group Extension (#504), or Hunt Group Extension (#505).
6.To monitor the fax machine, use Fax Machine Extensions (#601) to identify extension X as a fax extension and program a Fax Management button by programming the fax machine extension number on an Auto Dial button.
