RECEIVING FAXES AND OTHER CALLS
Using Remote Codes
If you are on an external phone (or extension phone), and you get an incoming fax call, you can
transfer the call back to your fax machine by entering a remote activation code. In the same
situation, if you get a telephone call from someone who requests that you switch on your fax, you
can transfer the call back to your fax machine with this code. Also, you can deactivate the fax
machine with another remote code during the F/T ringing from extension phone. In essence you
have one remote code to activate your fax machine and one remote code to deactivate it.
