Chapter 8 Using the Telephone, an Answering Machine, and a Modem 8-3
When a call comes in, the MultiPASS 1000 checks to see if the call is
from a telephone or fax machine.
❏ If the call is from a telephone, the machine rings to alert you
and the LCD displays:
❏ If you do not pick up the handset within 22 seconds, the
ringing stops. To change the ring time, see Customizing the
FAX/TEL SWITCH Feature on page 7-20.
❏ If the call is from a fax machine and the INCOMING RING
function is set to OFF, the MultiPASS 1000 does not ring. It
receives the document automatically.
❏ To set the MultiPASS 1000 to ring whenever it receives a call,
whether from a fax machine or telephone, you use the
INCOMING RING function; see page 7-18.
Placing a Call on Hold
1. While talking on the telephone, press HOLD.
❏ The MultiPASS 1000 plays a melody over the line and the
ON HOOK light blinks.
2. Return the handset to the cradle.
❏ If you do not resume the call within about 3 minutes, the
line disconnects.
3. To take the call off hold and continue talking, simply lift the
handset or press HOLD again.
While a call is on hold, the MultiPASS 1000 plays a melody. The
person on the receiving end hears the tune. To turn off the hold
melody, see Customizing MultiPASS 1000 Sounds on page 3-16.
