Distinctive Ring
Distinctive ring is a service offered by some local telephone companies which al-
lows you to use up to four different telephone numbers, each with a different
ring pattern, on your regular single line. If you subscribe to a distinctive ring
service you can set your fax to automatically answer when it detects one of
those ring patterns, allowing you to use the number corresponding to that pattern
as an exclusive fax number.
Important:
•
To use distinctive ring, you must subscribe to a distinctive ring service from
your local phone company. Do not make this setting if you do not subscribe
to a distinctive ring service.
•
Your fax may not be compatible with some distinctive ring services.
When using this feature, you must set the reception mode of your fax to AUTO
as described in "Selecting the Reception Mode" in this chapter. When your des-
ignated fax number is dialed, your fax will automatically answer and begin re-
ception after two rings. Note that other devices on the same line will also ring
until your fax answers. If one of your other numbers is dialed, the fax will ring;
however, it will not answer.
To use distinctive ring, select one of the ring patterns below for your fax by
pressing the panel keys as shown on the following page. The selections are as
follows:
1. RING PATTERN 1: Two short rings.
2. RING PATTERN 2: One short, one long, and one short ring.
3. RING PATTERN 3: Two short rings and one long ring.
4. STANDARD RING: Your standard (normal) ring pattern.
5. OFF SETTING: Answer all ring patterns (this turns distinctive ring
off).
Your fax has been set to "5" at the factory.
