Notice

Fax Reception Mode with Additional Devices

You should set the device to EXT/Answering device, Fax or Manual Mode if you have additional devices connected to the Ï/EXT. socket of your device.

Manual Mode

The device will not receive faxes on its own. You can start fax reception manually, by pressing o. This setting is use- ful, when you want to receive faxes via a modem connected to a computer.

Fax Mode

In the fax mode, the device will ring for as many times as you have set with function 042 (also see chapter Setting the Number of Rings, page 37). Then the fax reception switches on. You should select this mode if you primarily receive faxes at your device.

EXT/Answering Machine Mode

You should set the device to this mode if you have addi- tional devices connected to the Ï/EXT. socket of your device. If an additionally connected answering machine receives a call, your device will check to determine whether

or not the incoming call is a fax transmission. If the device recognises a fax signal, it will automatically receive the fax transmission.

If you do not have an answering machine connected or if a connected answering machine does not accept the call, the device will take over the call after a predetermined number of rings and automatically receive any possible fax trans- mission being sent.

Notice

Fax at Additional Telephone

If you pick up at an additional device and hear that you are receiving a fax (whistling tone or silence), you can start the fax reception by press- ing *5 on the additional telephone or pressing o on the device. To use this function, additional telephones must be set to the tone dialling mode (DTMF/MFV tones) (for this purpose see the operating manual of your addi- tional telephone).

Automatic Mode

(LPF¦5125, LPF¦5135)

If the Automatic Mode is active, the device will check to determine whether the incoming call is a fax transmission or a telephone call. The device will automatically receive fax transmissions. While the device is checking the call, it continues to ring. You can accept telephone calls at any time. After a predetermined number of rings, the device will take over the call and automatically receive a possible silent fax transmission.

Silent Fax Reception

Set the number of rings 0 (see also chapter setting the number of rings, page 37) and set the fax reception mode to fax mode (see also chapter setting the fax reception mode, page 39), in order to receive faxes without your device ringing.

Notice

Manual Fax Reception

If your device is set to the manual reception mode, you can neither hear nor receive incom- ing fax calls (see also chapter on setting the fax reception mode, , page 39).

Additional Options for Fax Transmission

Reducing Transmission Speed

The device adapts the transmission speed to the line qual- ity. This may take some time, especially for overseas con- nections. Set a lower transmission speed if you are sending faxes into networks with poor line quality.
