Introduction
About fax machines
Custom features
Do you have BT’s Call Minder/Voice
Mail on the phone line?
If you have Call Minder/Voice Mail on the
phone line where you will install your new
machine, there is a strong possibility that Call
Minder/Voice Mail and the machine may
conflict with each other while receiving
incoming calls.
Why should there be problems?
Since both the machine and Call
Minder/Voice Mail will pick up the call, after
the number of rings you have set, each of
them has the ability to keep the other from
receiving calls.
For example, if Call Minder/Voice Mail is set
to answer after two rings and your machine is
set to answer after four, Call Minder/Voice
Mail will stop your machine from receiving
faxes.
How can you avoid possible
problems?
A very good way to avoid problems like the
one mentioned, is to get a second phone number on your present phone line.
Many people with Call Minder/Voice Mail
choose an alternative service, which is called
“BT Call Sign”, and they are very satisfied
with it.
Another way to avoid possible problems is to
replace Call Minder/Voice Mail with an
answering machine. This machine is
designed to work with an answering machine
or TAD (telephone answering device).
(See Connecting an external telephone answering device (TAD) on page A-15.)
1
If you set Call Minder/Voice Mail and this
machine to answer after the same number of
rings, there is no way of knowing which one
will answer first. It is important to remember
that neither Call Minder/Voice Mail nor the
machine can pass the call back to the other
after the call has been answered.

Chapter 1
Fax tones and handshake
When someone is sending a fax, the fax
machine sends fax calling tones (CNG
tones). These are quiet, intermittent beeps
every 4-seconds. You’ll hear them after you
dial and press Start and they will continue
for about 60 seconds after dialling. During
that time, the sending machine must begin
the “handshake” or connection with the
receiving machine.
Each time you use automatic procedures to
send a fax, you are sending CNG tones over
the phone line. You will soon learn to listen for
these quiet beeps each time you answer a
phone on your fax line, so you will know if you
are receiving a fax message.
The receiving fax responds with fax receiving
tones, which are loud, chirping sounds. A
receiving fax chirps for about 40 seconds
over the phone line, and the LCD shows
Receiving.
If your machine is set to the Fax Only mode,
it will answer every call automatically with fax
receiving tones. If the other person hangs up,
your machine will continue to send the
“chirps” for about 40 seconds, and the LCD
continues to show Receiving. To cancel
receiving, press Stop/Exit.
The fax ‘handshake’ is the time in which the
sending machine’s CNG tones and the
receiving machine’s “chirps” overlap. This
must be for at least 2 to 4 seconds, so both
machines can understand how each is
sending and receiving the fax. The
handshake cannot begin until the call is
answered, and the CNG tones only last for
about 60 seconds after the number is dialled.
So it is important for the receiving machine to
answer the call in as few rings as possible.
ECM (Error Correction Mode)
The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for
the machine to check a fax transmission
while it is in progress. If the machine detects
errors during fax transmission, it resends the
pages of the fax that had an error. ECM
transmissions are only possible between fax
machines that both have this feature. If they
do, you may send and receive fax messages
that are continuously being checked by the
machine.

Setting the Station ID
You should store your name or company
name and fax number so they print on all fax
pages you send.
It is important that you enter the fax number
in the internationally standardised format, i.e.
in accordance with the following strict
sequence:
■ The “+” (plus) character (by pressing
key)
■ Your Country Code (e.g. “44” for the
United Kingdom, “41” for Switzerland)
■ Your local area code minus any leading
“0” (“9” in Spain)
■ A space
■ Your number on the local exchange, using
spaces to aid readability as appropriate.
As an example, if the machine is installed in
the United Kingdom and the same line is to be
used for both fax and voice calls, and your
national telephone number is 0161 444 5555,
then you must set the fax and telephone
number parts of your station ID as: +44 161
444 5555.

NOTICE (For USA)
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of
1991 makes it unlawful for any person to
use a computer or electronic device to send
any message via a telephone fax machine
unless such messages clearly contain, in a
margin at the top or bottom of each
transmitted page, or on the first page of the
transmission, the date and time it is sent
and an identification of the business or
other entity or other individual sending the
message and the telephone number of the
sending machine or such business, other
entity or individual.
To program this information into your
machine, see Setting the Date and Time on
page 2-1 and Setting the Station ID on page
