answer the telephone and someone tries to send you a fax mes-
sage, your machine will not accept it.
Note: Some older types of fax machines do not send CNG tones
and the line may be silent when you answer a call in TEL
answering mode.
If you answer a call using a telephone connected to the
same telephone line, but not connected directly to your
fax machine, you can remotely tell your fax machine to
start fax reception by entering a two digit remote receive
number using the telephone keypad. See Remote Receive
on page 55 in Programming later in this User’s Guide.
Telephone/Fax Auto Switch Mode [T/F]
When incoming calls are a mixture of fax and telephone calls,
your best choice is the Telephone/Fax Auto SW mode. In this
mode, your fax machine detects whether the incoming call is a
fax or voice call. When the call is from another fax machine,
your machine will switch to fax mode and receive the mes-
sage.When the call is a voice call, your fax machine will ring
like a telephone. If you do not answer, your fax machine will
switch back to fax mode to allow the calling party to manually
send a fax.
Note: Only use this mode if the telephone is located close to
your fax machine. After the initial ring, the telephone falls
silent, but the fax machine continues ringing.
Telephone Answering Device Mode [TAD]
Use this mode if you have connected an answering machine to
your fax machine. When a call is received and is not answered,
your answering machine activates and is ready to send out your
recorded outgoing message. At the same time, your fax
machine monitors the incoming call to check if the call is a fax
or voice call. If the incoming call is a fax call, your fax machine
will receive the fax and no voice message will be recorded on
your answering machine. If the incoming call is a voice call,
then your fax machine will not activate and the calling party
will be able to leave a voice message on your answering
machine.
Note: In some countries, the Telephone Answering Device mode
is normally turned off. To have it turned on, contact your
dealer.
Memory Reception Mode [MEM]
Use this answering mode if you want incoming faxes to be
stored in the memory of your fax machine and not immediately
printed. You can then use the
2/Print Operation One-Touch
Key print operation to print out any messages that have been
stored in memory.
Fax Forwarding Mode [FWD]
When set to this mode, your fax machine receives all fax mes-
sages into memory, and then automatically re-sends the fax
messages to the forwarding number programmed into your fax
machine. For information on setting the forwarding number,
refer to “Setting Forwarding Number” on page 27 in Installa-
tion.
