FOR YOUR INFORMATION
Types of Numbers
When
you
store
a
number
as
a
One-Touch
or
as
a
Speed-Dial
number,
you
have
a
choice
of
choosing
the
type
of
number.
There
are
4
options:
1. FAX (A fax number).
2. TEL
(A
telephone
number).
3. F/T
(Both
a
fax
number
and
a
telephone number)
4. CHAIN
(A
number,
usually
an
access
code,
for
chain
dialing).
Chain Dialing
Chain
dialing
is
used
to
store
a
very
long
dialing
sequence.
You
can
spread
the
number
over
two
or
more
keys
if
you
register
the
first
key(s)
in
the
sequence as type “Chain”. Chain tells the system that the dialing
sequence
is
not
completed
and
that
there
is
more
to
follow. The
last
key
in
the
sequence
must
be
any
other
dial
type
(either
FAX,
TEL
or
F/T).
You can use any combination of One-Touch, Speed-Dial and manually
dialed
numbers
in
a
chain.
If
you
must
wait
for
another
dial
tone
at
any
point
in
the
dialing
sequence,
store
a
pause
at
that
point
in
the
number
by
pressing
the
Pause/Redial
key.
(If
you
need
a
pause
that
is
longer
than
3.5
seconds,
call
our
Fax
Diagnostic
Center
at
1-800-284-4329
(USA),
1-800-853-6660
(CANADA)
for
assistance.)
Only one pause can be stored in each One-Touch and Speed-Dial
number.
When
you
are
ready
to
dial
the
chain
number,
simply
press
the
keys
one
after
the
other
in
sequence
and
then
press
Start
key.
Chain
dialing
makes
using
access
codes
easy.
Sometimes
you
may
want
to
choose
from
among
several
long-distance
carriers
when
you
make
a
call;
rates
may
vary
depending
upon
the
time
and
destination.
To
take
advantage
of
low
rates,
you
can
store
the
access
code
of
a
long-distance
carrier
as
you
would
a
regular
number
and
register
it
as
a
“chain”
number.
Then
to
dial,
press
this
(access
code)
number
followed
by
the
regular
number
and
Start
key.
You
can
set
up
chain
dialing
for
phone/credit
card
numbers,
the
same
way.
However, when using chain dialing, do NOT send a cover page
because your credit card number will be on it.
