Paging
Your fax machine can call you whenever a caller leaves a message on your
answering machine. This paging feature is very helpful when you are expecting an
important message but can’t sit by the phone.
Using paging is simple. You specify a telephone number ---- the page number ----
for the fax to call whenever you receive a message on the answering machine.
Then you turn on the pager function. Now, every time the fax’s answering
machine stores an incoming message, it will call the pager number. Upon
answering, you will hear a beeping; this tells you that your fax is paging you.
Then you perform a simple retrieval function and hear your message!
The fax will try to call the pager number after each message is saved on the
answering machine. If the unit encounters a busy signal or if it does not receive an
answer, it will automatically redial the pager number.
How many times it redials is something you can set (see “Set The Number of
Pager Calls,” right column).
Note:
The fax’s paging function works only with voice messages stored on its
answering machine. For information on Muratec fax models which allow
“fax retrieval” from remote fax machines, please contact your authorized
Muratec retailer.
