Setting the F/T Ring Time
You need to determine how long the machine will give its special F/T
pseudo-ring when you have a voice call. This ringing happens after the
initial ringing from the phone company. Only the machine rings, for 20,
30, 40 or 70 (for the U.K. and others) or 20, 30, 40 or 55 (for Ireland)
seconds; no other phones on the same line ring the special F/T pseudo-
ring.

Press Menu, 2, 2.
2
Press Z or X to select how long the machine will ring to alert you
that you have a voice call.

RING TIME:30 SEC
4
Press Stop to exit.
Now, when a call comes in and the machine is set to F/T Mode, all
phones on this line will ring the number of times you selected in Ring
Delay.
You can let the machine pick up and detect if it’s a fax or voice call. If
it’s a fax call, the machine prints the fax. If it’s a voice call, the machine
signals you with an F/T pseudo-ring for the length of time you selected
in F/T Ring Time.
Even if the caller hangs up during the F/T pseudo-ringing, the machine
continues the F/T pseudo-ringing for the set time.
Please note that some faxes cannot be received automatically in F/T
mode, because some fax machines do not send the standard Group 3
calling tone (“CNG”).
