Special dialling
This section explains how to dial through a switchboard, dial long distance numbers, register your
number to an outside line and confirm a dial tone.
j Dialling through a switchboard (PBX)
A PBX (private branch exchange) is an on-site telephone switchboard.
¶ If your fax is connected through a switchboard, dial an outside line access number first. Then dial the
rest of the number.
¶ If you want to dial with automatic dialling, you may have to insert a pause between the outside line
number and the telephone number when you register the number for One-touch or Coded Speed
Dialling. To enter a pause, press [Redial/Pause].
¶ When you have to make calls to an outside line or an extension, you may have to press the [R]
button. Before you can use the [R] button, you have to register it. See p. 40.
j Long distance dialling
When you register a long distance number, you may have to insert a pause within or after the number.
For a long distance dialling, the location and length of the pause may differ depending on the telephone
system. To enter a pause, press [Redial/Pause]. A pause within a number is 2 seconds long*. The length
of this pause can be adjusted. See MID PAUSE SET in TX SETTINGS, p. 87. A pause at the end of a
number is fixed at 10 seconds.
* 4 seconds long in the UK and Hong Kong. Users in the UK and Hong Kong cannot enter continuous pauses.
j Confirming a dial tone**
When you register a number, you may have to confirm the dial tone in the middle of a facsimile number
before entering the rest of the number. This is called dial tone detection. When dial tone detection is
required, press [D.T.]; a small dot (.) appears on the LCD.
** This feature is ineffective in the UK, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and Malaysia.
