Receiving Automatically in Ans/Fax Mode

To use this mode, you must attach an answering machine to the EXT jack on the back of your machine. See page 2.11.

If the caller leaves a message, the answering machine stores the message as it would normally. If your machine detects a fax tone on the line, it automatically starts to receive the fax.

NOTES:

If you have set your machine to Ans/Fax mode and your answering machine is switched off, or no answering machine is connected to EXT jack, your machine automatically goes into Fax mode after a predefined number of rings.

If your answering machine has a ‘user-selectable ring counter’, set the machine to answer incoming calls within 1 ring.

If you are in Tel mode (manual reception) when the answering machine is connected to your machine, you must switch off the answering machine, or the outgoing message from the answering machine will interrupt your phone conversation.

Receiving Manually Using an Extension Telephone

This features works best when you are using an extension telephone connected to the EXT jack on the back of your machine. You can receive a fax from someone you are talking to on the extension telephone without going to the fax machine.

When you receive a call on the extension phone and hear fax tones, press the keys 9 on the extension telephone. The machine receives the document.

Press the buttons slowly in sequence. If you still hear the fax tone from the remote machine, try pressing 9 once again.

9 is the receive start code preset at the factory. The first and the last asterisks are fixed, but you can change the middle number to whatever you wish. For details about changing the code, see page 7.4
