(RECEIVE\MODE)
Regardless of the mode that you select, you can always place calls and send faxes. The descriptions below will help you understand how the unit can work for you.
ANS/FAX mode:
Select this mode when you wish the unit to record voice messages and/or receive fax messages. When a call is received, the unit will play the common greeting message. If a voice call is detected, the answering system will begin recording, then the caller can leave a voice message. If a fax call is detected, the unit will switch to the fax and receive fax documents. For further details, see pages 25 and 26.
FAX mode:
Select this mode when you use the unit solely as a fax machine.
The unit will automatically answer all calls and generate fax tones to the callers. Callers will hear fax tones and will only be able to transmit faxes. For further details, see page 24.
TEL mode:
Select this mode when you wish to answer all calls manually. The unit will not automatically answer fax and voice calls. To answer a fax call during a telephone conversation, you can start reception by pressing the START/SET button.
¡You can change to the ANS/FAX mode from a remote location. Call your unit from a touch tone phone and wait for 15 rings. The answering system will temporarily answer the line. Then enter the remote operation ID (p. 56) during the greeting message. The unit will switch to the ANS/FAX mode.
