DRPD (Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection) MODE— ’Distinctive ring’
is a telephone company service which enables a user to use a single
telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers. The
particular number someone uses to call you on is identified by different
ringing patterns, which consist of various combinations of long and short
ringing sounds. This feature is often used by answering services who
answer telephones for many different clients and need to know which
number someone is calling in on to properly answer the phone.
Using the distinctive ring pattern detection feature, your fax machine can
‘learn’ the ring pattern you designate to be answered as a fax machine.
Unless you change it, this ringing pattern will continue to be recognized
and answered as a fax call, and all other ringing patterns will be
forwarded to the regular telephone or answering machine plugged into
the TEL jack.
Note : Before using the distinctive ring pattern detection option, distinctive ring
service must be installed on your telephone line by the telephone company.
To set up distinctive ring pattern detection, you will need another telephone
line at your location, or someone available to dial your fax number from
outside.
You can suspend or change distinctive ring pattern detection at any time.
Press 1 to turn this feature on.
Press 2 to turn this feature off.
Press 3 to setup the distinctive ring pattern detection. The LCD displays
‘WAITING RING’. Call your fax number from another telephone. It is not
necessary to place the call from a fax machine. When your machine
begins to ring, do not answer the call. The machine requires several rings
to learn the pattern.
When the machine completes ‘learning’, the LCD displays ‘END DRPD
SETUP’.
With the DRPD feature turned on, ‘DRPD’ appears in the display and the
previously set reception mode is ignored. If you turn DRPD off, the
machine returns to any previously set reception mode.
Notes:
DRPD must be set up again if you re-assign your fax number, or connect the
machine to another telephone line.
After DRPD has been set up, call your fax number again to verify that the
machine answers with a fax tone, then have a call placed to a different
number assigned to that same line to be sure the call is forwarded to the
extension telephone or answering machine plugged into the TEL jack.
