OPERATOR’S GUIDE

AFX-35.00

INTEGRATED PERSONAL FACSIMILE

Please read this Operator’s Guide carefully before using your new AFX-2500.

This Guide contains instructions for proper setup,

operation and maintenance of

your AFX-2500

Page 2

The following information is applicable only to

AFX-2500 facsimile machine installed in United States.

Label Identification

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC

rules. On the bottom of this equipment is a label

that contains, among other information, the FCC

registration Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. You may need to provide this information to your telephone company.

Type of Service

Model AFX-2500 is designed to be used on standard device telephone lines. Connection to telephone company-provided coin service (central office implemented systems) is prohibited. Connection to party-line service is subject to state tariffs.

Telephone Company Procedures

The goal of the telephone company is to provide you with the best service it can. In order to do this,

it may occasionally be necessary for it to make

changes in its equipment, operation, or procedures.

If these changes affect your service or the operation of the equipment, the telephone company will give you notice, in writing, to allow you to make any

changes necessary to maintain uninterrupted service.

If you have any questions about

your telephone

line, such as how many pieces of equipment you

can connect to it, the telephone company will

provide this information upon request. In certain circumstances, it may be necessary for

the telephone company to request information from you concerning the equipment which you have connected to your telephone line. Upon request of the telephone company, provide the FCC

registration number and the Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) of the equipment which is connected to your line; both of these items are listed on the equipment label and in the Service

Information chapter of this guide. The sum of all of

the

RENs

on your telephone line should be less than five in order to assure proper service from the telephone company. In some cases, a sum of five

may not be usable on a given line.

About interference

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged

to try

to correct

the interference by one or more of the following

measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver. Increase the seperation between the eqipment and the receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit

different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

If a Problem Arises

If any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately remove it from your telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone

network

If the telephone company notes a problem, it may temporarily discontinue service. When practical, the telephone company will notify you in advance of the disconnection. If advance

note is not feasible, you will be notified as soon as possible. When you are notified, you will be given the opportunity to correct the problem and informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Hearing Aid Compatible

The telephone handset attached to the facsimile is hearing aid compatible.

Lightning

Your unit has built-in protection circuits, which meet or exceed FCC requirements, to reduce the risk of damage from surges in telephone line currents. However, lightning striking near or on these lines can cause an exessive surge of voltage that can damage the phone.

Lightning damage is uncommon. However, if you are concerned about it or live in an area with

frequent and/or severe electrical storms, we

suggest that you unplug your electronic equipment during the storms.

DOC Information

The following information is applicable only to

AFX-2500 facsimile machine installed in Canada.

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

telecomm-

unications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.

Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of power utility, telephone lines and internal

metalic

water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.

Caution

Users should not attempt to make such connections

themselves, but should contact the appropriate

electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate. The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any

combination of devices subject only to the

requirement that the total of the load numbers of all

the devices does not exceed

100.

The Load Number of this unit

Class B

This Digital Apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for Radio Frequency noise from Digital Apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

Receiving

This section shows how to receive faxes and

control the functions that affect the way you receive faxes.

Manual vs.

Automatic Fax

Machines

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.

With the handset in the cradle using memory dialing

(see page

20)

your unit sends a document as an automatic fax machine. With the handset up, it sends a document as a

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

Notes:

Your unit is preset to the TEL MODE when it

comes out.

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.

Receiving in TEL Mode

To select the TEL (Manual) mode, press [AUTO RECEIVE] repeatedly until the AUTO RECEIVE indicator is off.

2. When the phone rings, pick up the handset.

3. When you hear a fax tone, press [START/COPY]

l When the other party is calling from a manual

fax machine, instruct him to press the [START] key on their machine. When you

hear a fax tone, press your [START/COPY] and hang up. The unit will receive the fax.

l If, when you answer the phone, you hear a fax

tone, someone is trying to send you a fax from

automatic fax

’

r:TART/COPY]

and

han,“,“,c:b”~ecei~~~~~

fax.

Receiving in AUTO RCV Mode

To select the AUTO RCV mode, press [AUTO RECEIVE] repeatedly until the indicator over the key lights.

When you get a call, the unit automatically

receives the document.

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.

When a call is received, the answering machine

answers and plays the recorded outgoing message.

l If a fax tone or a certain time period of silence

is detected on the line by your fax machine

the call automatically switches over to the fax

machine and reception begins, overriding the answering machine’s announcement.

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

time mode as described on page 25. This feature

in the user options will ensure fax reception when a fax tone is not detected on the line by your fax machine.

l If the sound level of the incoming caller is too low

due to

a poor telephone connection, the fax machine and/or answering machine may not function properly.

If the answering machine does not answer within

6 rings for

such reasons that recording message

is full on the tape or the answering machine is switched off, your fax unit automatically switches to the TEL/FAX mode and takes the call according to the steps described in “Receiving in TEL/FAX mode”. If the answering machine is featured with a user

selectable ring counter, set

the machine to answer an incoming call within 4

rings.

l When you are using the TEL mode on your unit

and an answering machine is installed, you must

make sure you switch off the answering machine, otherwise the OGM from the answering machine will disrupt your telephone conversation.

l When your answering machine answers an

incoming call, a fax tone may be recorded while

your fax discriminates between

a voice and fax.

Your answering machine may indicate a voice

message has been left.

l Set your answering machine to VOX mode (If

applicable). VOX stands for

yoice

Qperated

Iransmission

and is the name given to the answering machine facility which causes disconnection when

a period of silence is

detected by the answering machine.

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.

Receiving in

Clearing Paper Jams

If the fax paper jams, DO NOT pull it out. Doing so could damage your fax unit. To clear a fax paper jam, open the paper cover by pulling the release button toward the front of the unit. Then remove the jammed paper.

Reload the fax paper as described in “Loading Paper.”

Fax Paper Storage

Fax

Fax paper has chemicals in it that can, over time,

cause

yellowing, fading, and curling. Following these storage guidelines should keep your received faxes and your unused fax paper serviceable as long as possible.

extend its shelf-life, store unopened

packages

thermal paper at or beiow 76°F and 65% humidity.

If the package has been opened, store it away from direct light. Heat and humidity darken the of thermal paper.

Store your received faxes away from direct sunlight and at a temperature below 105°F. Heat and humidity darken the the thermal paper and fade the image.

Avoid storing faxes in contact with blueprint

(diazo) copies and plastic film or binders. The chemicals in these materials may fade the image.

Avoid applying tape to the imaged area on faxes.

The chemicals in some transparent tape adhesives may fade the image.

Avoid storing faxes with the imaged side together. The printed image may transfer from one copy to the other.

For indefinite storage, we recommend you copy your received faxes using a standard office copy machine, and store the copy instead of the original fax. Documents on plain copy paper are less prone to the decay that sometimes

affects

faxes.

Facts

Memory Dialing

If you have stored frequently used numbers in the

unit’s memory, and if the remote party you are calling is set to receive documents automatically, you can send a document at the touch of a key or

using [SPEED] key and 2-digit number.

For information on storing numbers for memory

dialing, see “Storing One-Touch

Speed Dial

Numbers” on page 24.

To send document using memory dialing;

Load the document face down into the unit (see page 19).

To dial the number assigned to one-touch key, press the one-touch key.

To dial the number assigned to 2-digit number, press [SPEED] and enter the

2-digit

number (01-

20). The unit automatically dials the number, confirms

the connection and sends the document.The

messages on the LCD window tell you what step is being performed.

Note: If you press one-touch key or 2digit number

which is not stored in the unit, warning tones sound.

Automatic Redialing

When you try to send a document using memory dialing and the receiving unit is busy or does not answer, (within 60 seconds), your unit will automatically redial the number at 3-minute intervals until it reaches the receiving unit. It redials the number up to three times in case of no answer.

When you dial a number manually using the dial keypad and the number is busy, either press [START/COPY]

and hang up or hang up then press

[REDIAL/PAUSE]

to activate the automatic

redialing.

If there is still no answer, your unit hangs up. If the receiving unit answers, your document is sent automatically

The OHD indicator flickers and ‘BUSY REDIAL

?" appears on the LCD window while the unit waits for the 3-minute

interval time to indicate the auto

redialing

is being activated. If you want to redial the lumber soon without waiting for 3 minutes, press [YES]

any time, press

Note: If you receive call while theunit waits for the 3-minute interval time in the middle of automatic redialing, lift the handset. You can take the call and the automatic redialing is canceled.

Handset Up, Handset Down

You can use any dialing method - manual, onetouch, or speed dialing

for manual faxing (with the

handset up) or automatic faxing (with the handset

down

To dial manually with the handset down, press

[OHD] first. You will hear a dial tone through the built-in speaker and you can then dial manually the

telephone number using the dial keypad.

Leave the handset down when you think you are dialing an automatic fax machine and don’t expect the remote operator to answer. If the remote operator does answer, a fax tone will inform the operator that a fax is coming in.

If you do lift the handset to dial, be sure not to hang

up until the transmission begins. Hanging up before the transmission begins will disconnect the line and

cancel the transmission.

Remove all staples, clips and tape from original documents.

the

If you must re-fax a document that was faxed to you, we recommend that you make

a copy of it

on a regular office copier, and fax the copy for better transmission quality.

To create good quality original documents, do the

following:

l Type them instead of writing. l When writing, use a felt-tip pen and black ink. l Use white paper.

Do not try to send documents that are:

Wet or damp

l Covered with wet ink or paste l Too thin (such as onionskin, airmail paper or

pages from a magazine)

l Chemically processed (such as pressure-sensitive

paper or carboncoated paper)

l Coated (such as glossy paper) l Too small or short (such as a label or card)

l Made of cloth or metal

Use an office copier to piece together several small originals or make a standard size copy of an original which is too small to load in your unit.

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

electronic signals (audio tones).

Sending, or transmitting, the signals through a

telephone system, to another fax unit.

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

(Consultative Committee for

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.
