OPERATION

An incoming call on the phone line connected to the AFX-300 can be answered in any of the following ways:

If you connected an answering machine (TAD) to the AFX-300, you can let the TAD answer the call (see “Using a TAD with the AFX-300” on Page 19).

You can answer the call in person by picking up any phone on the same line as the AFX-300 (see “Answering Calls in Person” on Page 22).

You can let the AFX-300 automatically answer the call (see “Letting the AFX-300 Answer Calls” on Page 23).

Regardless of how a call is answered, if the call is from a fax machine, fax modem, or data modem, the AFX-300 automati- cally directs the call to the proper device. After the call ends, the AFX-300 automatically resets to answer the next call.

Notes:

The POWER/IN USE indicator flashes slowly when the AFX-300 is in use.

If you connected both a TAD and a data modem to the AFX-300, be sure to turn on the AFX-300’s automatic modem detection feature (see “Automatic Modem Detec- tion (AMD)” on Page 39).
