Radio Shack AFX-300 Switch User Manual


 
19
If you subscribe to first number distinctive ring service
from your telephone company, the AFX-300 is preset to
automatically transfer calls to your fax machine/fax
modem, whether the call is a voice call or a call from a
fax machine/fax modem or data modem (see “First Num-
ber Distinctive Ring” on Page 35).
If you have two phone lines and subscribe to a call roll-
over feature from your telephone company, a fax call
might roll over to the other line (the line not connected to
the AFX-300) when your fax line is busy. If this happens,
the AFX-300 cannot direct that call to your fax machine/
fax modem.
If a caller’s fax machine does not sound fax alert (CNG)
tones (tones that indicate the incoming call is a fax call),
the AFX-300 cannot automatically switch the call to your
fax machine/fax modem, but you can switch it manually
(see “Switching Fax Calls Manually” on Page 24).
USING A TAD WITH THE AFX-300
If you connected a TAD to the AFX-300, you can let the TAD
answer calls. How the AFX-300 operates depends on whether
you connected only a fax machine/fax modem, or connected
a fax machine/fax modem and a data modem.
