Dial Parameter Settings List
REDIAL TRIES: This function controls how many times your
OKIFAX automatically redials a number that is busy or
does not answer. Available settings are from 0 to 10 tries.
Default: 3 tries.
REDIAL INTERVAL: This function controls how long your
OKIFAX waits between each automatic redial attempt.
Available settings are from 1 to 6 minutes. Default: 3
minutes.
DIAL TONE DETECT:
This function allows your OKIFAX to
wait for and detect a dial tone before proceeding with dial-
ing. Available settings are ON and OFF.
Default: OFF.
BUSY TONE DETECT: This function allows your OKIFAX to
detect a busy tone when sending a fax. Available
settings are ON and OFF. Default: ON.
MF(TONE)/DP (PULSE): This function sets the dialing
method. Use the MF setting for Touch-Tone dialing,
or the DP setting for pulse dialing. Default: MF
(TONE).
PBX LINE: Turn this function on if your OKIFAX is con-
nected to a PBX (Private Branch Exchange—a phone sys-
tem used to route internal calls). Once this function has
been turned on and the access digit function has been pro-
grammed using the Dial Prefix parameter (below), your
OKIFAX recognizes the access digit you use in your PBX
to get an outside line.See the Dial Prefix function below
for mor information. Available settings are ON and OFF.
Default: OFF. See “Connecting to a PBX,” page 23, for in-
structions on changing this setting.
AUTO START: When this function is turned on, your
OKIFAX automatically dials as soon as you press a One
Touch key or enter an Auto Dial code—you do not have
to press Start. Available settings are ON and OFF. De-
fault: ON.
DIAL PREFIX: If your OKIFAX is connected to a PBX, use
this function to specify the access digit used to obtain an
outside line from your PBX. You can enter a number
with up to four digits. When this parameter is pro-
grammed, the OKIFAX recognizes the access digit
when you enter a number and automatically pauses
for an outside line before dialing the rest of the
number. See “Connecting to a PBX,” page 23, for in-
structions on changing this setting. Available settings
are ON and OFF. Default: OFF.
