Note that the above assignment of ringing patterns to boxes is not affected by
the distinctive ringing setting for FAX mode described on the pre vi ou s page. The
above assignment is effective when the fax is in TAD mode, and the selection
made for FAX mode is effective when the fax is in FAX mode.
An outgoing message must be recorded for each box used with distin ctive ringing.
If an outgoing message is not recorded for a box, the answering machine will not
answer when the corresponding number is dialed. However, if you have selected
that ringing pattern for fax reception in FAX mode as described on t he pre vi ou s
page, the fax will answer that pattern and receive a documen t ju st lik e it does in
FAX mode.
As an example, you could have the answering machine answer only th e standard
ringing pattern by recording an outgoing me ssage only for the General Box. The
other patterns would be left free, so you could use one of them for fa x reception as
described on the previous page, and another for a computer modem or o th er
device.
