Panasonic KX-FT31BX TEL/FAX mode, receiving voice calls with rings and fax calls without rings

Receiving Faxes

TEL/FAX mode

(receiving voice calls with rings and fax calls without rings)

Use this mode when you wish to receive voice calls with rings, but do not want the unit to ring when faxes are received.

When a call is received, the unit will work as follows.

A call is received.

The unit will automatically answer the call without ringing. (A telephone fee will be charged to the caller.)

If an extension telephone is connected, it will only ring before the call is answered.

The unit will now distinguish between a voice and fax call by detecting the fax

calling tone.

The unit will receive a document.

Silent ring fax recognition system

Voice call

The unit will start to ring.

●While ringing, the unit will emit a different ring back tone to the calling party.

Answer the call using the handset.

●If you do not answer the call by a preset number of rings, the unit will switch to the fax. This is for machines that do not send a fax calling tone.

ƒRegarding the ring pattern when an extension telephone is connected, see the next page.

Note:

●Some fax messages that are transmitted manually may not send a fax calling tone. These calls must be received manually.
