Automatic redialing
If you use automatic dialing (including Direct Keypad Dialing) and
the line is busy, the fax machine will automatically redial the number.
The fax machine is set at the factory to make 2 redialing attempts at
intervals of 5 minutes.
To stop automatic redialing, press the CHANGEOVER key to show
the telephone line status in the display (make sure that RECALL
MODE appears on the top line of the display and the number of the
receiving party appears on the bottom line to the right), and then press
the STOP key.
If desired, you can change the number of redial attempts with Option
Setting 6, and the interval at which redialing takes place with Option
Setting 7. See Chapter 6, Optional Settings.
Under certain conditions (for example if a person answers the call
on a telephone), automatic redialing may stop before the set number
of redialing attempts are made.
Memory Retransmission
If a line error occurs during any type of memory transmission, your
fax will automatically redial the number and attempt to complete the
transmission. Retransmission will begin from the page which was
being transmitted when the error occurred.
The fax machine has been set at the factory to make 10 attempts at
retransmission, with each attempt made immediately after the
previous attempt. If desired, you can change the number of attempts
by changing Option Setting 17, and have the fax wait a selected
number of minutes between each attempt by changing Option Setting
18. See Chapter 6, Optional Settings.
To stop retransmission, press the CHANGEOVER key to show the
telephone line status in the display (make sure that RETRY MODE
appears on the top line of the display and the number of the receiv-
ing party appears on the bottom line to the right), and then press the
STOP key.
