Machine
Time selections for the period of silence are 1 to 10 seconds. Quiet Detect
Time has been set to 4 seconds at the factory. This gives the best
performance with most answering machines; however, you may need to
adjust this setting depending on the disconnect time of your answering
machine.
Some answering machines may have unusually fast disconnect times (equal
to or very slightly less than 4 seconds), which means that the answering
machine may disconnect the line before fax reception can begin. In this case,
try a Quiet Detect Time setting of about 3 seconds.
If the fax machine is interrupting callers before they can leave a message, try
a longer Quiet Detect Time setting. If your outgoing message includes a
period of silence, make sure that the setting is longer than that period of
silence, or re-record your outgoing message to shorten the silence.
Note: Quiet Detect Time can be turned off by entering "00" for the time. Note,
however, that the fax machine will not be able to receive faxes sent manually by
Normal Dialing.
To change the setting, follow the steps below.
1 Press once and 3 times.
2 Press once and 5 times.
3 Press once.
4 Enter a number from 01 to 10, or enter
