IMPORTANT USER INFORMATION

The following operational information should be included in our Owner’s Manual.

— PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTINUING —

1) USING THE TAD INTERFACE FOR TELEPHONE ANSWERING MACHINE
HOOK-UP (ADDENDUM TO PAGE 9-5 FOR MODEL INTELLIFAX 600/

650M OWNER'S MANUAL).

In some cases, your fax may not be able to detect a phone call from a fax call until after your answering
machine has completely played the outgoing message. This is a standard telecommunication protocol and

not a product problem.

Therefore, the following procedure must be followed when you connect your fax with a telephone

answering device (TAD)....

STEP 1) The number of rings on your telephone answering device, if adjustable, should be set to its

lowest value (less than 4 rings).

STEP 2) The outgoing message on your telephone answering device, should be recorded at less than

20 seconds in length.

For best operation, we recommend a five second blank area in the beginning of the outgoing
message.

A calling fax unit will send a calling tone for only 35 seconds after it dials your telephone/fax number.
Therefore, in order for your telephone answering device to pick-up, the length of your outgoing message
plus the number of rings of your answering device should not exceed 35 seconds.

2) RADIO STATION INTERFERENCE (ADDENDUM TO PAGE 10-1 FOR

MODEL INTELLIFAX 600/650M OWNER'S MANUAL).

With the number of cellular phones and microwave towers, it is possible that you may experience radio

station noise while using your fax handset as a telephone (depending on your geographic location in

relation to these towers).

If you experience this handset noise, simply us the following information to FAX # [phone].

* Your Name
* Address
* Phone Number
* Fax Number
* Explanation of the frequency problem

We will then immediately contact you with an easy, no cost solution for your location.

2-2

INSTALLATION

Selecting A Location

The following points should be kept in mind when selecting a place to set up your fax
machine.

• Place the fax machine on aflat, stable surface such as a desk or stand.

• Select a place where the machine will not be subjected to bumping or excessive
vibration.

• Do not set it up in a high-traffic area.

• Locate the unit near a telephone wall jack and a standard, grounded power outlet.

• Avoid setting up the machine near heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or
refrigerators.

• Avoid direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture, or dust.

• Do not connect the unit to electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic

timers. Disruption of power can wipe out information in the unit’s page memory.

• Do not connect the unit to electrical outlets on the same circuit as large appliances

and other equipment that might disturb the power supply.

• A void interference sources, such as speakers or the base units of cordless telephones.

INSTALLATION

• ImtaU^mreextemionswdhtheaffvedparisofthewireextension

poin^ibwnmird.

Connecting The Unit To A Power Outlet

Important

The machine must always be connected to the power outlet
before you connect it to a telephone line.

Similarly, when moving the unit, the telephone line
connection should be removed before unplugging the
power cord. This is because the machine relies on the
ground from the plug to protect you from any hazardous
electrical conditions occuring on the telephone network.

The IntelliFAX600/650M can be plugged into any standard, grounded,
power outlet.

2-4

INSTALLATION

Make sure that the socket is grounded and is not on the same circuit as

any large appliances or office machines such as refrigerators or

photocopiers, since these can generate interference that may affect the

operation of the IntelUFAX600I650M, The power requirements for the
IntelUFAX600l650M can be found in the SPECIFICATIONS section,
(page 16-1).

There is no ONIOFF switch. As soon as the machine is plugged to a live

power outlet it is ON and the datellime display will appear on the LCD

screen.
When the machine is plugged in, the recording paper will be fed through

automatically.

WARNING: This apparatus must be grounded using

3 prong piug.

Connecting The Unit To A Telephone Line

If you plan to use a single telephone line connection follow the instractions
below. This is straightforward if your telephone receiver is connected using
modular telephone jacks.

1) Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the back of the fax machine.

Use the LINE soekcl located faidiest to the left. Make sure it clicks into

place.

2) Plug the other end of the cord into the telephone wall jack socket. Make
sure this end clicks into place.

If you have call waiting, ring master, or any other custom calling

feature on your telephone line it may create a problem in the

operation of your fax unit.

2-5

Jacks

If you have the older 4-prong telephone wall jack, you must use a modular

4-prong adapter (USOC RJAIX). Plug the adapter into the wall jack and then
plug the telephone cord into the adapter, as shown in the illustration below.

Multi Line Connections (PBXs)

Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively simple
to connect the machine to a key system or a PB X (private branch exchange),

wc suggest that you contact the company which iiisLalled your téléphoné

system and ask them to connect the fax machine for you.

INSTALLATION

It is advisable to have a separate line for the fax machine. You can then leave
the machine in AUTO ANSWER mode to receive faxes at any time of the
day or night.

If the fax machine is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask your installer
to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This will prevent the unit
from being activated each time a telephone call is received.

• As with all fax units this machine must be connected to a two wire

system. If your line has more than two wires proper connection of the

fax machine can not be made.

Connecting To A Private Branch Exchange

The following points should be kept in mind if you are installing the machine
to work with a private branch exchange (PBX).

1) It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all
circumstances with PBXs. Any cases of difficulty should be reported first
to the company that handles your PBX.

2) If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is
recommended that the AUTO ANSWER function be set to be manual.

(see page 9—1) All incoming calls should initially be regarded as

telephone calls.

____________

3) The unit may be used with either the pulse or tone dialing telephone types.

2-6

INSTALLATION

Connecting The Unrt To An External Telephone

Connect an external telephone to the Ext. Device Jack as shown.

You can remotely activate the machine using your external telephone.
This is described in the section "Remote Activation" (See 9^).

You can also attach a Telephone Answering Machine to the Ext. device

jack instead of a telephone.

This key is used to dial telephone or fax numbers without

lifting the handset.

For automatic transmission, neither the HOOK button nor the

handset are necessary for transmission.

This key is used to put an incoming call on hold.
(Pressing this key a second time will cancel the hold status.)

This key has two functions. When numbers are being stored in
the auto dialing memories, PAUSE inserts a short delay into

the number at the point where the PAUSE key is pressed. For

more information on PAUSE see page 7-2.
If an outgoing call fails to be connected for any reason,

pressing REDIAL allows the number to be re-dialed.
Automatic re-dialing is also available on the IntelliFAXbOO/
650M. See pages 5-4 for more information.

The SPEED-DIAL key is pressed before entering a two-digit
speed-dial (abbreviated code) number for dialing. Pressing this

key tells the IntelHFAXfinn/fi50M to expect an abbreviated

code instead of a full-length, manually-dialed number. For
more information on storing and using speed-dial numbers, see

page 7—5 and 8—1.

Making A Copy

BASIC OPERATION

The IntelliFAX600/650M can be used as a convenience
copier. Once you have unpacked and set up the machine, it’s
a good idea to make a trial copy to check that the machine is
working, before attempting to send and receive faxes.

After the IntelliFAX600/650M has been connected to the
power outlet and has warmed up, the date/time display will
appear when there is no document in the feeder.

To make a copy, place the document you wish to copy,
face-down, in the document feeder, and feed it in gently until
you feel some resistance. You can copy any document up to

8.5 inches/216 mm wide (A4 size).

Note:

- When the copy has been printed, the automatic paper cutter
will cut the page from the paper roll,

- The machine cannot read text or images closer than 1/8" from
any edge of the document.

- Do not pull on the paper while copying is in progress. This
may ruin the copied image.

3-6

BASIC OPERATION

Suitable Types of Document

The automatic document feeder (ADF) of the

IntelIiFAX600/650M will handle a wide variety of paper size

and thickness for copying and fax transmission, but to avoid
document jams and possible damage to the machine, the
following points should be noted.

• The range of optimum thicknesses for sheets used in the

ADF is 2.8 X 10~^-3.9 x 10~^ inches (0.07 - 0.10 mm) and

the range for weight is 0.07 x 10~^-0.114 x 10~^ Ibs/inch^
(52-SOgfm ). If you are using only one sheet of paper, the
thickness of the paper should be between 3.9 x 10 -4.7 x

—3

10 inches (0.07 - 0.12 mm) and the weight, between 0.114

X 10~^-0.121 X10^ Ibsfinch^ (80 - 85g!n?).

• Feed documents of more than 10 pages manually, one sheet

at a time.

• Before inserting the document into the ADF, make sure the

pages are not stuck together, to avoid double feeding.

If the document you are about to transmit or copy is more
than one page, fan the sheets of paper and insert them face
down, so that the first page is at the bottom and will be fed

first.

3~7

• The document should not be narrower than the smallest

setting of the paper guides, nor wider than the widest setting
(5.8 inches to 8.5 inches).

• The document should be between 3.9 inches to 35.4 inches.

• The paper should be between 0.002 inches and0.003 inches

thick.

• The paper should not be curled, wrinkled or creased.

• The paper should not be damp.

• The paper should not have any protrusions such as paper

clips, staples, or pasted-on additions. These may damage
the scanner or ADF mechanism.

• If the document is unsuitable forfeeding through the ADF,

make a photocopy and use that.

USING THE FUNCTIONS

4. USING THE FUNCTIONS

The IntelliFAX600/650M has a number of user-configurable
settings, which you may change in order to obtain the best
performance from the machine.

Some of these options have been set at the factory, and you

may not need to change them. Where an option has been set at
the factory, the setting is given in the table opposite. Other
items such as the date, time and station identification of your
IntelliFAX600/650M, will need to be changed when you first
set up the machine.

Before you can configure the machine, you will first need to
understand the functions, and how to use them.

The most frequently used functions on the IntelliFAX600/650M

have special keys assigned to diem, such as the START, STOP and

COPY keys. Other ftmctions, including storing one-touch dial and

speed-dial numbers and configuring the IntelliFAX600/650M to

suit your requirements, are used less frequently, fri fact many of
these items will only need to be changed when the machine is first
set up. These functions are accessed by pressing the FUNCTION
key, after which a sequence of helpful prompt messages on the
display wül guide you through the available options.

The 12-key dial pad is used for dialing faA and telephone

numbers. It is also used to enter numbers, symbols, text and
punctuation marks when in the function mode.

Each key on the dial pad has a number printed on it. When the
IntelliFAX600/650M is expecting a numeric input (for

example a fax number) only numbers can be input using the

dial pad.
Each dial key also has two or three letters printed by the side

of it, apart from the 1 key and the * and # keys, which are used
for special characters.

The characters assigned to each key are as follows:-

"1" key

"2" key

"3" key .... .DEF3

When the IntelliFAX600/650M is expecting text input (for
example a name), the first thing that appears in the display when
you press one of the number keys is the relevant number. Press
the key again, and the first letter associated with that key appears.

Thus, if you press the 5 key repeatedly, the character currently

above the display cursor will change, as shown opposite;-

J-K-L-5-J-.
Remember, this only applies when the IntelliFAX600/650M

is expecting a text input, such as a name. When it is expecting
a numeric input, such as a telephone number, pressing the
number key repeatedly will simply produce the same number
repeated on the display.

By pressing the appropriate number key the correct number of
times, you can get the character you wish to enter to appear
above the cursor. You can then press another number key to
move onto the next character.

Entering Repeated Characters

The IntelliFAX600/650M does not know that you wish to go
onto the next character until you press a different number key.

Should you wish tn enter the same character twice in

succession, or another character on the same number key, you
must move the cursor one place to the right by pressing the

right cursor key. The example opposite shows how to enter the

letter A followed by the letter B.

The initial condition of each character, before a number key is
pressed, is a blank, so if you wish to enter a space for a

If you enter an incorrect character, you can use the left cursor
key to move the cursor back to the incorrect character, then

enter anew character using the correct number key. If you want
to replace a character with a space, press the key once.

Note that you cannot insert additional characters into existing
text or numbers, you can only overwrite them with new
characters, so if you leave out a character you must move the
cursor back to the character after the last correct character and

transmitted fax. The F/T RING TIME option sets the time for
which this ringing occurs, before the IntelliFAX600/650M

reverts to fax receiving mode. The F/T switch monitors for fax
tone (CNG) during F/T ring time. All automatic transmissions
must generate CNG tone to meet CCITT specifications. More

This is useful if you are using the machine on an extension of
a key telephone system.

Remote activation allows you to receive a call on a telephone
which is either connected from the fax unit, or is parallel

connected to your line (extension telephone), but is not located

near the fax unit. If an in-coming call is a fax transmission,
simply enter the remote code on the external/ extension

telephone (tone-type) to enable reception of the fax.

Note:

- If you accidentally pick up your extension or external

telephone by mistake when you are transmitting at receiving

a fax, there might be some slight distortion on the document.

7. AUTO DIALING

AUTO DIALING

The IntelliFAX600/650M allows you to store frequently used
fax and telephone numbers in the machine’s memory, and to

recall and dial them using codes. This useful feature saves you

having to dial the full number on the numeric keypad. There
are five labelled one-touch dial buttons for your most

frequently used numbers, and you can store a further 10

speed-dial numbers on the IntelliFAXbOO and 40 speed-dial
numbers on the IntelliFAX650M that can be called up by
dialing a two-digit code on the numeric key pad.

Note:

- When storing auto dial numbers, it is vital that you take every

precaution during entry of numbers into the auto dial
memories, to ensure that the numbers are correct. Always

double-check international dialing prefixes. It is a good idea
to print out the all dial list whenever you have stored or
amended a one-touch or speed-dial number. See page 13-2
"Printing the all dial list".

Chain Dialing

- Incorrect numbers can cause great expense to you,
unnecessary congestion of the telephone network, and

inconvenience to others.

- In the event of interruption in electric power, all the stored

fax and telephone numbers are retained in memory.

In addition to the one-touch dialing and speed dialing functions

available on the unit, a further convenient option called "chain

dialing" can be used with either of the auto dialing functions.
When you send an automatic-transmission, the machine
allows you to use a single one-touch dial or speed dial number.
However, if you register a one-touch or speed-dial as a "chain
dialing" number, the machine allows you to use up to five chain
numbers and on6 one-touch or speed-dial number.

When dialing overseas fax or telephone numbers, there may
be situations in which a company can offer you better rates

than the telephone company you normally use. Chain dialing
lets you choose the telephone company, whose line charge is
lower if you register the access code to a second telephone
company as a chain dial number. This is also important when
using a telephone credit card.

7-1

AUTO DIALING

You can register numbers with up to 20 digits.

Chain dialing are registered the same as any other number except
that you register the type as a chain. See page 7-4 and 7-6.

Storing Auto Dial Numbers

Auto dial numbers can be stored by selecting function item 4

- SET AUTO DIAL, then choosing either ONE-TOUCH
DIAL or SPEED-DIAL from the options presented.

As well as the fax or telephone number, you can also store the
name of the destination, which will be displayed as a check
when you dial the number using one-touch or speed-dialing.

Using The Redial/Pause Key

When storing anto dial numbers, yon will n.se the numeric keypad

to enter numbers and text as described earlier.
If your IntelliFAX600/650M is connected to a PBX, you may

need to insert a code for outside line access before each fax or

telephone number that you store in the memory. For example,

if your code for outside line access is "9", you will need to store

"9" as the first digit of every fax or telephone number in the

auto dialing memories.
If yonr PRX returns secondary proceed indication (in other

words, if you have to wait for "outside dial tone" before
dialing, after accessing an outside line) the PAUSE button

should be used.

During storage of auto dial numbers, pressing the PAUSE
button between the outside line access code and the rest of the
number displays a dash on the LCD, for example
9-0613306531.

When dialing using the auto dial number, this builds in 3.5 second

delay, needed to allow time for the outside telephone exchange to
prepare for dialing after the access code has been dialed.

Only one pause can be inserted into a number, so if you need more
than a 3.5 second delay, please contact your Brother service who
can adjusts the pause period.

AWAITING REDIAL

Resolution

If your call fails to be connected for any reason, you can redial
the number by pressing the REDIAL/PAUSE key.

If you don’t want to waste time re-trying a busy number, the
IntelliFAX600/650M can also redial the number automatically
if auto redial has been switched on when configuring the system

(see page 5^). The IntelliFAX600/650M will re-dial the
number three times at five-minute intervals before giving up.

In the interval between re-tries, AWAITING REDIAL is
displayed.

If you wish to stop auto redial, just press the STOP key.

In order to transmit a document over the telephone network,
the IntelliFAX600/650M scans the document, line-by-line,
from top to bottom, in the same way as a television picture.
The scanned image is then sent to another fax machine as an
electrical signal, where it is printed out line by line to
reproduce a copy of the original document.

The smaller the distance between the scan lines, the better the

reproduction of the document. This is known as the

RESOLUTION of the fax machine.
The IntelliFAX600/650M has three resolution settings.

STANDARD is a resolution of 98 x 203 lines per inch.

FINE is a resolution of 196 x 203 lines per inch.

SUPERFINE is a resolution of 392 x 203 lines per inch.

There is also a special mode for photographs, which will be
described later.

When sending a fax or making a copy, the resolution can be
changed at any time before you press the START key or COPY
key.

It is set by pressing the RESOLUTION key (labelled
FINE-S.FINE-PHOTO) on the right of the control panel.

Standerd resolution is selected when both lamps are off. One of
the other resolution setting is selected when the appropriate lamp
is lit. Afer sending the fax, the resolution will revert to
STANDERD.

STANDARD resolution can be used for most typewritten text.

FINE resolution should be used for small text such as printed
text.

SUPERFINE resolution should be used for very small text and

artwork.

Note that SUPERFINE resolution is a proprietary mode that
can only be used between Brother fax machines. If you try to
send a fax in SUPERFINE resolution to a non-Brother fax
machine, it will be sent in FINE resolution.

Why bother with different resolution modes, at all? Why not
simply send all faxes in superfine mode? The answer is that it
takes roughly twice as long to send a fax in fine mode as in
normal mode, and four times as long in superfine mode.

Photo Mode

ORIGINAL FAX

BLACK

50% GRAY

WHITE

When the IntelliFAX600/650M scans a document, it breaks

each line down into a large number of dots called pixels,

(pixels stands for picture elements). The printer in the
receiving fax can only print each pixel as black or white, it
cannot pnnt shades of gray.

This can be a problem when transmitting pictures with shades

of gray such as photographs, since all areas of the picture

darker than a certain shade will come out black, and all lighter

areas will come out white.
To get around this problem the lntelliFAX600/650M uses a

technique similar to that used to print photographs in

newspapers, simulating shades of gray with combinations of

dots. Blocks of 16 pixels are used. Some of these will be black

and some white, depending on the shade of gray being

simulated.

Note that photo mode should only be used for those documents

that require it, because:-

- A fax sent in photo mode takes as long as one sent in superfine

mode.

- The scanning method used for photo mode tends to make the

edges of text look ragged.

8-6

Contrast

Overseas Mode

SENDING FAXES

Contrast is the difference in lightness between the black and

white parts of a document. This can vary depending on the
color of the paper and the quality of text. A document typed
with a new nylon ribbon on white paper will have higher
contrast than one typed with an old ribbon on colored paper.

The IntelliFAX600/650M has automatic contrast control that
allows it to decide which areas of the document are white and
which are black.

Occasionally you may have a very light or a very dark

document that does not give good results when faxed. In this

case you can ovemde the automatic control, and set the

contrast to SUPER LIGHT to send a very light document or

SUPER DARK to send a very dark document.

Overseas mode provides an efficient method for sending your
fax overseas.

Temporary Settings

If you have a document that is very light, you can set the
contrast manually using the TEMP. SETTINGS function. You
can also use the TEMP. SETTINGS to change the resolution

page by page, or to send your fax overseas.

One important use for Temporary Settings is for Multiple
Resolution transmission. This allows you to pre select the
resolution for each document being sent.

When you set the resolution using the RESOLUTION key, this
sets the resolution for the whole document. However, some

documents may need different resolution settings for different
pages. For example, if you had a document with a lot of text

pages and a few photographs, you would want to send the text

pages in standard mode for minimum transmission time, and

the photographs in photo mode.

The IntelliFAX600/650M allows you to set the resolution for
each page of a document, using the RESOLUTION option of
the TEMP. SETTINGS function.

After the fax has been sent, contrast will revert to AUTO,
resolution will revert to STANDARD and overseas mode will
revert to OFF.

The Coverpage

It’s good idea to send a coverpage as the first page of a fax,

giving details of who the fax is being sent to, who it’s from,

and so on. The IntelliFAX600/650M can generate a coverpage

electronically, without you having to prepare one and feed it
through the document feeder. This saves paper and ensures that

all your faxes have a standard coverpage format.
To see what a coverpage looks like, you can print out a sample

by selecting function item 3.PRINT REPORTS, and choosing

option 3.COVERPAGE (see page 13-3).

A coverpage contains;-

- The destination name and fax number taken from the
one-touch or speed-dial memory. If you dialed manually, the
name will be left blank.

- Your name, fax, and telephone number, taken from the
Station ID.

- The number of pages to be transmitted.

- There are three fixed coverpage comments to choose from.
On the IntelliFAX650M, you can customise the other two
yourself. They are:-

1. COMMENT OFF (no coverpage note)

2. PLEASE CALL

3. URGENT

4. CONFIDENTIAL

5. (User selectable)

How the IntelliFAX600/650M handles incoming calls
depends on the setting of the ANSWER MODE. This is
controlled by the key at the top right of the control panel with
two lamps labelled AUTO ANS, F/T and TAD.

The IntelliFAX600/650M may be connected to a telephone
line on its own, or together with a telephone instrument so that
you can make and receive telephone calls, as well as receive
faxes.

If you wish to answer all incoming calls manually, press the
ANSWER MODE key until both lamps are off.

When an incoming call rings the telephone on the fax, answer
the call by picking up the telephone.

If you hear the voice of a human caller, you can have a
telephone conversation in the normal manner.

When a fax is being received, the display will show the
message RECEIVING.

You should also set the RING DELAY to "0" (zero), so that
the IntelliFAX600/650M will answer incoming calls with no

ring delay. See page 5-3 for information on how to do this.

You may also connect a telephone to this line, but you will
only be able to make outgoing calls, as the IntelliFAXbOO/
650M will answer all incoming calls automatically.

The F/T Switch

RECEIVING FAX AND OTHER CALLS

Connecting a fax and a telephone to a single line may cause
problems. If the fax is set to AUTO ANS mode and you do not
answer the call before the fax machine does, incoming
telephone callers will hear fax tones and may think they have

mis-dialed. On the other hand, if you have the fax machine set

to manual answer, you have to answer every incoming call

manually, and some of these calls may be faxes.
Fortunately, the lnteIliFAX600/650M is fitted with a call type

discriminator, often called a fax/telephone switch or F/T

switch. The F/T switch can distinguish between incoming fax

calls and incoming telephone calls, by listening for the calling

tone (CNG tone) sent by the transmitting fax machine. If an

incoming call is a fax, the IntelliFAX600/650M will receive it
automatically in most cases. If the call is a lelephuiie call, the
IntelliFAX600/650M will output a simulated ringing tone
from its speaker to alert you to pick up the telephone receiver.

Note that some fax messages that are transmitted manually
may not be received automatically, because some fax

machines do not send calling tone in manual mode.

RECEPTION IN F/T MODE

The F/T switch is activated by pressing the ANSWER MODE
key until the F/T lamps is lit.

In F/T answer mode, the IntelliFAX600/650M will answer

incoming calls automatically.

It will then listen for fax calling tone (CNG tone) for 4 seconds.

CNG is generated by most Group 3 fax machines in Automatic
transmission mode. If this is detected, it will receive the fax
message automatically.

If CNG tone is not detected, the IntelliFAX600/650M decides
that the incoming call is a telephone call, and will output a

simulated ringing signal from the loudspeaker, to alert you to
answer the call. You can set the time for which this ringing

signal is output under function item 5..5 - USER OPTIONS ­FfT RING TIME.

If you do not answer the call within the F/T ring time, the
IntelliFAX600/650M will revert to fax receiving mode. This
allows a manually transmitted fax to be received even if calling

tone has not been detected.

If you pick up the extension telephone and discover that a fax
is being sent, you can turn on the fax unit remotely by pressing
Remote Activation code on your touch tone telephone. The fax
unit will turn on and receive fax message. Also, if you wish to
receive a document after talking to distant end, this can be done
by using the code.

If you are not near your unit when F/T ringing occurs, you can
deactivate the fax unit remotely by inserting the Remote
Deactivation code which will shut off the fax machine and let
you talk on the line.

The TAD Mode

Using An External TAD

RECEIVING FAX AND OTHER CALLS

The TAD mode is intended to be used when you use the fax
machine with TAD (Telephone Answering Device) attached
to the Ext. Device jack in back of the unit.

TAD mode differs from F/T mode in that pseudo-ring tone is
not output during the outgoing message, and the T AD outgoing
message does not invite the user to wait for someone to answer

the call, but only to record a voice message.
TAD mode is activated by pressing the ANSWER MODE key

until both lamps are lit.

Connect your external TAD to the Ext. Device Jack as shown
in the illustration below.

Set the ANSWER MODE key to "TAD" (so that the both
lamps are lit.)

The external TAD is now ready for use.

The unit will enter the document reception mode automatically

when another party tries to send a fax transmission with a CNG

tone to your machine. CNG tone is generated by most G3 fax
machines in automatic transmission mode.

If the sending party (using a tone type unit) presses your
Remote Code, fax reception is switched to the main unit.

If the ICM (Incoming Message) section of your external TAD

is full, the TAD will not answer the telephone. As a result, the

unit cannot receive the transmission.

9-5

RECEIVING FAX AND OTHER CALLS

If your external TAD has a paging function, the unit may
prevent the paging function from working.

Some fax machines may not be able to signal your fax machine
to switch on automatically during a transmitting. To cover this
possibility we recommend that you record a message on your
TAD requesting the sending party to enter the Remote Code
on his unit before transmission.

A sample message; "Our answering machine is connected to
a fax unit at present, so if you would like to send a fax, please

press the xxx (your Remote Code) by tone signal and send your
fax after you hear the FAX tone. If you would like to leave a
message, please do so after this message. Thank you."

Note;

- When you pick up the handset of the fax while conversation
on an external telephone, you will hear an alarm and the
display will prompt "EXT. TEL IN USE".

When you want to use the fax unit handset, first press HOOK
key, which will disconnect the external telephone and enable

the use of the fax unit handset

Smoothing

SMOOTHING OFF

SMOOTHING ON

RECEIVING FAX AND OTHER CALLS

In the section on sending faxes, we saw how changing the

resolution altered the quality of a transmitted fax. Changing

the resolution setting on the IntelliFAX600/650M will not
affect the resolution of an incoming fax. However, the
IntelliFAX600/650M has a proprietary technique that will
enhance the appearance of any incoming fax. This is called
SMOOTHING.

When an incoming fax is being transmitted in standard or fine

mode, the íntelliFAX600/650M can look at the incoming data
and interpolate extra lines between those being sent by the

transmitting fax. This smooths the outlines of text and prevents

lines in artworks from having a jagged appearance.

Note:

- Smoothing enhances incoming faxes from any fax machine,
not just Brother machines. It has no effect on the resolution
of outgoing faxes.

- Smoothing has no effect if a fax is being sent to you in
superfine resolution, since the printer in the

IntelliFAX600/650M is already working at its maximum
resolution.

- Smoothing has no effect when printing list and reports.

For information on how to turn smoothing on or off, turn to
page 5-7.

Reception Into Memory (Only For lntelliFAX650M)

If the IntelUFAX650M has run out of paper it will
automatically store any fax transmissions it receives in its

memory. Also, if it runs out of paper midway through receiving
a transmission, it will store the part of the document that it is

unable to print. The following message appears on the LCD
display:

PAPER ROLL EMPTY

Load the machine with paper and the unit will print any stored
documents or parts of documents automatically.

No data is lost provided you do not turn off the machine prior
to printing out the stored documents or if you lose power.

11. POLLING

What Is Polling?

Why Is Polling Used?

POLLING

During normal fax transmission, you call up another fax
machine and send a fax. In this case you pay for the cost of the
call, just as when you make a normal voice telephone call.
Conversely, when someone calls up your fax machine and
sends you a fax, they pay for the cost of the call.

Polling reverses this procedure. To poll another fax machine,
you call it up, and request it to send you a fax which has been
left in the document feeder. You pay for the cost of the call

and receive a document. Conversely, you may leave a
document in your fax machine and allow another fax machine
to call up and poll for it. This is being polled.

You may want someone to send you a long document, but they
may not wish to pay for the cost of the call. This problem may
be solved if they agree to leave the document in their fax
machine so that you can call them up and poll for it.

Secure Polling

Polling may be used by a head office to gather in information
such as orders and sales statistics from home-based sales
people. They may have difficulty sending in a fax if the head

office fax machine is busy, but head office can probably call
up their home number with less difficulty. It may also be
preferable for head office to bear the cost of the call.

Polling can also be used to take advantage of differences in
call charges depending on the place from which the call is

initiated.

Once you leave a document in your fax machine to be polled,
anyone can call up and poll for that document. To prevent this,
you can use secure polling. This simply means that you agree,
in advance, a four digit password with the caller who is going

to poll for your document. When they call, they must key in

the password before they can poll for the document.

Please note the called side’s machine should be a Brother
machine.

11-1

POLLING

Setting Up The lntelliFAX600/650M To Be Polled

Setting up the IntelliFAX600/650M to be polled is very easy,
but don’t forget, if you wish the polling to be secure, the other
