Setting Up Fax/Tel Mode
When you select Fax/Tel Mode from the Data Registration menu, you can
also set the following options.
RING START TIME
When a call comes in, the unit checks to see if it is a person wishing to
speak to you or a fax machine trying to send a document. If your unit
does not have enough time to detect the fax tone, it assumes the call is
from a telephone. Use the RING START TIME setting to increase the
time the unit takes to check whether a call is from a fax machine or a
telephone. You can select a time between 0 and 30 seconds; the
default is 8 seconds.
F/T RING TIME
When your unit is set to receive both fax and telephone calls
automatically, it rings to alert you to pick up the handset if the call is
from a person. If you do not pick up the handset within a certain
amount of time, the unit stops ringing. Use this option to change the
number of times the unit rings, from 10 to 45 seconds. The default is
15 seconds.
F/T SWITCH ACTION
Not all fax machines are capable of sending a FAX TONE (the CNG
tone that warns the receiving fax machine that a fax is coming). For
those cases the unit may think that the call coming in is a voice call
and rings to alert you of the call (the amount of time it is going to ring
is determined by the F/T RING TIME setting above). If you do not
answer the call, one of two things can happen:
1. If you set the F/T SW ACTION to RECEIVE, the unit will switch
to fax receive mode automatically at that point and start to
receive the document. If no document comes in, it disconnects
the call after approximately 35 seconds. The factory default
setting is RECEIVE.
2. If you set the F/T SW ACTION to DISCONNECT, the unit will
disconnect the phone call immediately freeing up your phone
line at this point.
