Using the Answering Machine Connection

Changing the outgoing message

The outgoing message (OGM) of your answering machine should be changed to inform callers who want to send a fax to press their Start key. For example, your message might go as follows:

"Hello. You've reached the ABC company. No one is available to take your call right now. Please leave a message after the beep or press your facsimile Start key to send a fax. Thank you for calling."

♦It is advisable to keep the length of the message under 10 seconds. If it is too long, you may have difficulty receiving faxes sent by automatic dialling.

♦If your outgoing message must be longer than 10 seconds, leave a pause of about four seconds at the beginning of the message. This will give your fax a chance to detect fax tones sent when automatic dialling is used.

Using the Answering Machine Connection

When you go out, activate the answering machine connection as follows:

1 Set the reception mode to A.M.

RESOLUTION/			TEL FAX
RECEPTION MODE			TEL FAX

TEL/FAX AM.

2 Set your answering machine to auto answer.

♦Your answering machine must be set to answer on a maximum of two rings. If not, you may not be able to receive faxes sent by automatic dialling.

♦If your answering machine has a toll saver function, make sure that it will answer by the fourth ring.
