Setting the Options for Distinctive Ring Pattern
Detection Feature: DRPD
Some telephone companies offer a Distinctive Ring Pattern (DRP) service whereby they assign two or more
telephone numbers with distinctive ring patterns to a single telephone line. If your telephone company offers such
a service, you can have both a fax number(s) and a telephone number(s) for your machine using only one
telephone line.
Your machine will automatically monitor incoming calls and based on the distinctive ring pattern, it will
determine if the call is from a fax machine trying to send a document or from a telephone trying to make a voice
call.
Use the information in this section to set up the machine for use with a DRP service. For more details on the
DRP service, contact your local telephone company. (Your telephone company may have a different name for this
service. Also, this service may not be offered in all areas.)
Types of Ring Patterns
Your telephone company will assign a distinctive ring pattern to each number when you order the DRP service.
See the fax ring pattern to match that assigned by the telephone company.
