Recording an outgoing
message (OGM) on an
external TAD 7
Timing is important in recording this
message. The message sets up the ways to
handle both manual and automatic fax
reception.
a Record 5 seconds of silence at the
beginning of your message. (This allows
your machine time to listen for the fax
CNG tones of automatic transmissions
before they stop.)
b Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
c End your 20-second message by giving
your Fax Receive Code for people
sending manual faxes. For example:
‘After the beep, leave a message or
send a fax by pressing l 51 and Start.’
Note
We recommend beginning your OGM with
an initial 5-second silence because the
machine cannot hear fax tones over a
resonant or loud voice. You may try
omitting this pause, but if your machine
has trouble receiving, then you must
re-record the OGM to include it.
Special line considerations 7
Roll over phone lines 7
A roll over phone system is a group of two or
more separate telephone lines that pass
incoming calls to each other if they are busy.
The calls are usually passed down or ‘rolled
over’ to the next available phone line in a
preset order.
Your machine can work in a roll over system
as long as it is the last number in the
sequence, so the call cannot roll away. Do not
put the machine on any of the other numbers;
when the other lines are busy and a second
fax call is received, the fax call will be sent to
a line that does not have a fax machine. Your
machine will work best on a dedicated
line.
Two-line phone system 7
A two-line phone system is nothing more than
two separate phone numbers on the same wall
outlet. The two phone numbers can be on
separate jacks (RJ11) or mixed into one jack
(RJ14). Your machine must be plugged into an
RJ11 jack. RJ11 and RJ14 jacks may be equal
in size and appearance and both may contain
four wires (black, red, green, yellow). To test
the type of jack, plug in a two-line phone and
see if it can access both lines. If it can, you
must separate the line for your machine. (See
Easy Receive on page 39.)
Converting telephone wall outlets 7
There are three ways to convert to an RJ11
jack. The first two ways may require help from
the telephone company. You can change the
wall outlets from one RJ14 jack to two RJ11
jacks. Or you can have an RJ11 wall outlet
installed and slave or jump one of the phone
numbers to it.
