Operation from External or Extension Telephone
If you answer a fax call on an extension phone or on an external phone in the EXT.
jack, you can make your fax machine take over by using the Fax Receive Code. When
you press the Fax Receive Code 5 1, the fax machine starts to receive a fax. (See
Fax Detect, page 5-5.)
If the fax machine answers a voice call and F/T pseudo-ring for you to take over, use
the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone. (See
Setting F/T Ring Time, page 5-4.)
If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume youre receiving a fax. At the
fax machine phone, press Start, then hang up. At an extension phone, press 5 1,
wait for fax receiving tones (chirps), then hang up. At an external phone, press
5 1 and wait for the phone to be disconnected (the screen displays RECEIVE)
before you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Start to send the fax.)
For FAX/TEL Mode Only
When the fax machine is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (F/T
pseudo-ring) to alert you to a voice call. If youre at the fax machine, you can lift the
handset to answer.
If youre at an extension phone, youll need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring
Time and press # 5 1 between the F/T pseudo-ring. If no one is on the line, or if
someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back to the fax machine by pressing
5 1.

This function works when you receive the incoming Voice call at the remote DECT
cordless phone externally connected to the fax machine. You can transfer voice call to
