Receiving documents in Ans. Machine Mode ___

Connecting an answering machine to the FAXPHONE allows you to receive not only
documents sent from other fax machines, but also messages from people calling when
you are out of the office. When the FAXPHONE is connected to an answering ma-
chine, all incoming calls are first directed to the answering machine. If the call is from
a person, the caller can leave a message. If the call is from a fax machine, your
FAXPHONE receives the document automatically. See Connecting the phone line, p.
13 for instructions on how to connect the answering machine to the FAXPHONE.
