Notices
The Canadian Department of Communications (DOC) label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements. The
Department does not guarantee the equipment wil
operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the
facilities of the local telecommunications company.
The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases,
the company’s inside wiring associated with a
single line individual service may be extended by
means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not
prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the
unications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.

Notes:
D
Your unit is preset to the TEL MODE when it
comes out.
B
Once you choose a receiving mode,the mode will
not be changed even though you turn the unit off. The unit restores the mode when you turn on its power.
Facsimile machines come in two basic types:
Manual fax machines require the sender to dial
the number, listen for a fax tone from the receiving machine (or tell the receiving operator to press the [START] key on their machine), and then press [START/COPY] to send.
Automatic fax machines detect the presence of the receiving machine after it answers, and automatically send a document with no operator
intervention.

manual fax machine. Your facsimile machine can receive documents from either type of machine.

Choosing a Mode
Before you begin to receive faxes, select the proper
reception mode for the way you intend to use the
machine.
In TEL mode, you can use your fax machine as you would use any regular telephone. Use this mode if you typically use the unit to receive both voice calls and faxes.
In AUTO RECEIVE MODE, your unit automatically
picks up to receive a fax after several rings. The
number of rings can be set through the User
Options (see page 25). Use this mode if you typically leave your fax machine unattended.
In ANS/FAX MODE, the unit can share the same
telephone line with an answering machine

When a call is received from a manual fax
machine, your unit answers the call after several rings which you set through the User Options, and sounds a fax tone to the caller. The caller hears the tone, and should know to
press the [START] key on their machine.
Then your unit receives the fax.
When a call is received from an automatic fax
machine, your unit automatically detects the sending fax machine and receives the fax automatically.
Notes:
l If you pick up the handset before your unit
answers, the unit switches back to TEL mode.
l Even when a fax tone is on the line, the unit might
fail to detect it and doesn’t receive the fax because of the line instability.

l If someone wants to speak with you, the caller
can leave a message on the answering machine.
Notes:
l If you have troubles receiving faxes in the
ANS/FAX mode, change the silence detection

Some Message Guideline When You
Record Outgoing Message
The message that you record on your
answering machine should give clear instructions to callers who may want to send a fax or leave a message. Your message should say “This is (your company). If you would like to send a fax please press your [START] key. If you want to leave a message please speak
after beep”.
Keep your message as short as possible.

How a Fax Works
Facsimile is a system of sending printed or other graphic information from one location to another by producing a copy or “facsimile” of that information
d the remote location. A fax unit transmits audio
ones over the same telephone lines you use for
lerson-to-person conversation.
The facsimile process involves three basic steps:
Reading and converting the document into
1. electronic signals (audio tones).
Sending, or transmitting, the signals through a

disassembling. Then close the cover.
3. Converting the received signals into a “facsimile” of the transmitted document.
This is a simplified explanation of the actual facsimile process. Although all fax units operate by this same basic process, specific operating procedures differ from unit to unit.
About Facsimile Compatibility
The
CCITT
International Telephone and Telegraph), which sets worldwide standards for data communication, classifies facsimile devices into three groups. The
grouping is based on how a fax unit sends
information, in what form, and at which speed.
To simplify, you can think of fax units as being
grouped by speed: Group 1 includes 6 minute units,
Group 2 includes 3 minute units, and Group 3
includes sub-minute units. These speeds refer to
the amount of time it takes a fax unit to send or
receive a standard business letter over the
telephone lines.
