The external TAD must be connected as
shown in the illustration below.
1TAD
a Set your external TAD to one or two
rings. (The machine’s Ring Delay
setting does not apply.)
b Record the outgoing message on your
external TAD.
c Set the TAD to answer calls.
d Set the Receive Mode to
External TAD. (See Choosing the
Receive Mode on page 47.)
Recording an outgoing
message (OGM) 7
a Record 5 seconds of silence at the
beginning of your message. This allows
your machine time to listen for fax tones.
b Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
c End your 20-second message by giving
your Remote Activation 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
• You need to turn the Remote Codes
setting to on to use the Fax Receive Code
l51. (See Using Remote Codes
on page 59.)
• We recommend beginning your OGM with
an initial 5 second silence because the
machine cannot hear fax tones over a loud
voice. You may try leaving out this pause,
but if your machine has trouble receiving,
then you should re-record the OGM to
include it.
