Sending Faxes
Redialing When the Line Is Busy
There are two methods of redialing: manual redialing and automatic redialing.
Manual Redialing
Press the Redial/Pause button to dial the last number you dialed with the numeric
buttons. (This also starts redialing regardless of whether automatic redialing is
enabled.)
Canceling Manual Redialing
To cancel manual redialing, press the Stop button.
Automatic Redialing
When you are using memory sending and the other party’s line is busy, the unit
waits a specified time and then dials the same number again. You can set the
MultiPASS to redial several times if the previous attempts failed because the line
was busy. This feature is called automatic redialing.
After the initial dial attempt, the default setting is to wait two minutes and 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. (Even if the
MultiPASS is set to redial several times, it will redial only once if there is no tone or
there is a ring back tone during the first attempt.)
You can turn automatic redialing off and on. Also, you can adjust the number of
redialing attempts and the time interval between attempts.
You can set the Automatic Redialing features through the MultiPASS Fax Setup
Utility or the operation panel. If you are using the MultiPASS Fax Setup Utility, see
the online MultiPASS Desktop Manager Software Guide. If you are using the
operation panel, see the online Standalone Fax Manual.
When using automatic redialing, the LCD display alternately displays AUTO
REDIAL and the transaction number (TX/RX NO.) while it is waiting to redial.
