Ring setting in TAD/FAX mode

You can choose from 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, TOLL SAVER and RINGER OFF.

This setting can be changed by feature #06 on page 70.

TOLL SAVER: When you call the unit from a remote location, the number of rings will tell you if there are any new voice messages. If the unit answers on the 2nd ring, there is at least one new recorded message. If the unit answers on the 4th ring, there are no new recorded messages. To save the toll charges for the call, hang up immediately when you hear the 3rd ring. The 3rd ring indicates that there are no new recorded messages. RINGER OFF: The unit will answer without ringing.
