A1500 Fax Receive Mode Selections

Mode Selection

Description

FAX

Do not use for this configuration.

TEL

To receive faxes manually, press START twice on
the A1500 or press *9* on the telephone.
Also use this mode if you wish to receive faxes
through the computer modem instead of the A1500.

ANS/FAX

Receives faxes automatically. The answering
machine will answer the call and the A1500 will
listen for fax tones. It will intercept the call if fax
tones are detected. Set the answering machine to
answer in 1 or less rings. The A1500 will pick up
after 6 rings. The computer modem should be
disabled from answering calls.

DRPD

The A1500 answers the learned ring pattern on 2
rings. Make sure that the computer modem is set to
answer after 4 or more rings if it does not recognize
DRPD patterns. Also make sure that the answering
machine is set to answer after more rings than both
the A1500 and computer modem if it does not
recognize DRPD patterns.
