Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection feature (DRPD), this machine "learns" the ring pattern you designate to answer the fax.
Unless changed, this ringing pattern will continue to be recognized and answered as a fax call, and all other ringing patterns will be forwarded to the telephone or answering machine plugged into the EXT. LINE jack. You can easily suspend or change Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection at any time. See Selectable Options on page
With the DRPD feature active, DRPD appears in the display and the previously set reception mode is ignored. If you turn DRPD off, the machine returns to any previously set reception mode.
Polling
What is Polling?
Polling means that one fax machine requests another to send a document. This is useful for sending unattended faxes. The person, who wants to
receive the document, calls the machine holding the original and requests4 the document. In other words, it "polls" the machine holding the original
document.
Polling One or More Remote Machines (RX POLL)
You can set up the machine to automatically receive documents from unattended remote fax machines. The machine can be set up to receive the fax now, or at a later time. This feature permits unattended polling in off- peak hours when telephone rates are lower.
Note: The remote machine must also support polling to use this feature.
