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.
