Receiving a Fax

Receive Mode Settings

Select Receive Mode

There are four different receive modes for the machine. You may choose the mode

that best suits your needs by pressing the Mode key repeatedly until you have

changed the Fax and F/T lights to the setting you want to use.

You will need to connect an external telephone to select Fax/Tel (F/T) or Manual

Mode or an external TAD to select TAD Mode.

Receive Mode For

( means light off. means light on.)

1. FAX Use this function if you want to receive fax messages only (no

telephone calls). The machine should be connected on its own

line. The machine automatically answers every call as a fax

call. You cannot receive a voice call, but, if you have

connected an External telephone, you can still dial out and

make voice calls. (This setting is recommended if the machine

is on its own dedicated line.)

2. FAX/TEL (F/T)

(with an External

Telephone)

Use this function if you expect to receive many fax messages

and few phone calls. The machine automatically answers

every call. If the call is a fax, it prints the fax. If the call is not

a fax, it signals you with an F/T pseudo-ring, different from the

phone company ringing, to alert you to pick up the call. Lift the

external telephone’s handset, and then press Tel to answer. If

you select this setting, you will need to set the Ring Delay and

F/T Ring Time features (on the following pages).

3. TAD

(with an External

Answering

Machine)

This is the only setting in which you can use an external

answering machine. Your telephone answering device

answers every call. Once the external telephone answering

device (TAD) answers, the machine listens for fax tones. If it

detects fax tones, fax messages are printed. (See Connecting

an External Telephone Answering Device (TAD), page 6.)

The TAD setting works only with an external telephone answering device (TAD). Ring Delay

and F/T Ring Time do not work in this setting.

4. MANUAL

(with an External

Telephone)

Use this function if you receive many telephone calls and few

fax messages. You must answer all calls yourself. If you hear

fax tones, wait until the machine takes over the call

automatically, then hang up (see Fax Detect function).
