Setting the Reception Mode for Incoming Calls
Setting the Reception Mode for Incoming Calls
Your fax has four modes for receiving incoming calls and faxes:
TEL mode:
Select this mode when you want to receive both phone calls and faxes
on the line connected to the fax machine. All calls, including faxes,
must be answered by picking up the fax machine's handset or an
extension phone connected to the same line.
FAX mode:
Select this mode when you only want to receive faxes on your line.
The fax machine will automatically answer all calls on four rings and
receive incoming faxes.
TEL/FAX mode:
This mode is convenient for receiving both faxes and voice calls.
When a call comes in, the fax will detect whether it is a voice call
(including manually dialled fax transmissions), or an automatically
dialled fax. If it is a voice call, the fax will make a special ringing
sound to alert you to answer. If it is an automatically dialled fax
transmission, reception will begin automatically.
A.M. mode:
Use this mode only if you have connected an answering machine to
the fax (see Chapter 8). Select this mode when you go out to receive
voice messages in your answering machine and faxes on your fax
machine.
