EasyDial directory dialing
The EasyDial directory dialing feature makes your Autodialer even more like an
electronic phone book. EasyDial sorts and displays numbers alphabetically
according to their Location IDs, so you can easily find them and dial them. When
the name you want appears, you just press
start
to begin a call (either phone or
fax). Your machine’s EasyDial directory alphabetizes in the following order:
upper-case letters; lower-case letters; and, finally, symbols and numbers.
1. If you want to use EasyDial to make a regular phone call, make sure there’s no
document in the feeder and then skip to step 3.
If you want to use EasyDial to send a fax, insert the document.
2. Adjust resolution and contrast if necessary.
3. Press
speed dial
twice. The LCD shows the alphabetically first listing in
your fax machine’s EasyDial directory:
ABC Company
(If this listing is the one you want to dial, skip to step 5.)
Note:
If the Caller ID service (see page 1.22) is available, the LCD will show
the stored Caller ID. To change to the EasyDial directory, press
2, 4, 6
or
8
on the numeric keypad.
4. Scroll through the listings to find the one you want. You do this by pressing
certain keys on the numeric keypad:
• 2
or
8
to find the first characters, --- for example --- of the Location ID.
• 4
to
6
to check different listings --- such as Sarah, Shaina or Stuart ---
beginning with that character.
Note:
When you’re pressing 2 or 8, the LCD will display only characters with
at least one entry.
Note:
The scrolling is “open-ended”. For example, when you run out of
listings beginning with upper-case letters, pressing 4 or 6 automatically
moves you into listings beginning with other characters.
5. When the LCD is showing the name you want to dial, press
start
.
•
If there is a document in the feeder, your machine will dial a fax call to the
selected Autodialer number.
•
If there isn’t a document in the feeder, your machine will activate the
monitor speaker and dial a regular phone call. At this point, you may either.
--- Lift the handset now
or
--- Listen to the monitor speaker until you hear the other person answer, and
then lift the handset.
What if an EasyDial call doesn’t go through?
If an EasyDial call fails (for example, because of a busy signal), what happens
next depends upon the kind of call it was.
If it was a fax call…
… Your fax machine automatically redials the number after 3 minutes redial
interval. It keeps trying until either of the following occurs first:
•
It successfully reaches the other number (and, if it’s a fax call, makes contact
with the machine on the other end).
•
It has automatically redialed the number the last try (see page 1.17).
If it was a regular phone call…
… You’ll have to redial manually:
1. Obtain a dial tone by either lifting the handset or pressing
monitor/call
.
2. Press
redial/pause
.
