Changing ring patterns for call answering
Ring-pattern or distinctive-ring service is available through some local telephone companies.
The service allows you to have more than one telephone number on a single line. Each
telephone number has a unique ring pattern, so that you can answer voice calls and the
device can answer fax calls.
If you subscribe to a ring-pattern service with your telephone company, you must set the
device to answer the correct ring pattern. Not all regions/countries support unique ring
patterns. Contact your telephone company to determine if this service is available in your
region/country.
Note
If you do not have ring-pattern service and you change the ring-pattern settings to something
other than the default, All Rings, the device might not be able to receive faxes.
The settings are as follows:
●
All Rings: The device answers any calls that come through the telephone line.
●
Single: The device answers any calls that produce a single-ring pattern.
●
Double: The device answers any calls that produce a double-ring pattern.
●
Triple: The device answers any calls that produce a triple-ring pattern.
●
Double&Triple: The device answers any calls that produce a double-ring or triple-ring
pattern.
