TEL FAX

When the reception mode is set to TEL/FAX, your fax machine automatically answers all calls on one ring (the number of rings can be changed as explained on page 89). After answering, your fax monitors the line for about five seconds to see if a fax tone is being sent.

♦If your fax machine detects a fax tone (this means that the call is an automatically dialled fax), it will automatically begin reception of the incoming document.

♦If your fax machine doesn't detect a fax tone (this means that the call is a voice call or manually dialled fax), it will make a ringing sound (called pseudo ringing) for 15 seconds to alert you to answer (the duration of pseudo ringing can be changed as explained on the following page). If you don't answer within this time, your fax will send a fax tone to the other machine to allow the calling party to send a fax manually if they desire.

Note: Only the fax will alert you to voice calls or manually dialled faxes by pseudo ringing. An extension phone connected to the same line will not ring after the connection has been established. The handset of a parallel extension telephone can, however, be picked up to answer the call. If pseudo

ringing does not stop when the handset is lifted, press on the dial pad of the phone (this is only possible from a tone dial phone). If pseudo ringing is not cancelled in this way, the fax machine will send fax tones down the line, rendering conversation impossible.
