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 seconds; no other phones on the same line ring the special
F/T pseudo-ring.
1
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.
3
Press Set when the screen displays your selection.
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”).
