Telecom FaxAbility (New Zealand only)
Telecom N.Z. offers the FaxAbility capability. If you subscribe to this service, your line is
assigned two numbers: one for fax and one for phone. When the fax number is called, the
network sends a specific ringing tone which your fax recognizes and automatically handles as a
fax call. If the phone number is called, a different ringing tone is sent out from the network so
that the call is handled as a voice call. This means that there is no switching delay at the other
party’s end.
Contact Telecom for connection information.
Setting the fax for network switch ____________
Operation for network switch system _________
The procedures for using the network switch system are almost the same as when using the fax
over a normal telephone line. When you receive calls, however, the fax will respond slightly
differently as described below.
When you hear the telephone call ring pattern:
Pick up the handset and talk normally. If you hear a slow beep, it means the call is from a fax
machine trying to send a document. Press [Start/Copy] to receive the document. If you do not
pick up the handset, the fax continues to ring until the other party hangs up. If an answering
machine is connected*, it takes over the call.
* FAX-B820/B822 only.
When you hear the fax call ring pattern (double ring):
After the fax rings, it receives the document automatically.
