Redialling When the Line is Busy
There are two methods of redialling: Manual redialling and Automatic redialling. This
section explains these two methods.
Manual Redialling
Press R (Redial)/Pause to dial the last number you dialled with the numeric buttons.
(This starts redialling regardless of whether automatic redialling is enabled.)
Cancelling Manual Redialling
To cancel manual redialling, press Stop.
Automatic Redialling
What is Automatic Redialling?
When you are sending a document using memory sending and the other party’s line is
busy, the unit waits the specified time and then dials the same number again. You can
set your unit to redial several times if previous attempts fail because of a busy signal.
This feature is called Automatic redialling.
After the initial dial attempt, your unit is factory-set to wait two minutes and then try to
dial again. If the second attempt fails because the line was busy, the unit will again wait
for two minutes and make a final attempt to complete the call.
Automatic redialling can be turned off and on. The number of redialling attempts and
the time interval between attempts can also be adjusted. (1 p. 7-11)
If all redialling attempts are unsuccessful, the unit will cancel the transmission and print
an ERROR TX REPORT to remind you that the transmission was not completed.

You can also set the automatic redialling feature from the MultiPASS Suite. (1 Software

When automatic redialling is in use, the LCD alternately displays AUTO REDIAL and
the transaction number (TX/RX NO.) while it is waiting to redial.
