Important:

This fax machine is not designed for use on a line which has call waiting, call forwarding, or certain other special services offered by your telephone company. If you attempt to use the fax machine in conjunction with any of these services, you may experience errors during transmission and reception of facsimile messages.

The fax machine is not compatible with digital telephone systems.

Important safety information

Do not disassemble this machine or attempt any procedures not described in this manual. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Do not install or use the machine near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use the machine near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool. Take care not to spill any liquids on the machine.

Unplug the machine from the power outlet and telephone socket and consult a qualified service representative if any of the following situations occur:

- Liquid has been spilled into the machine or the machine has been exposed to rain or water.

- The machine produces odors, smoke, or unusual noises.

- The power cord is frayed or damaged.

- The machine has been dropped or the housing damaged.

Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not install the machine where people may walk on the power cord.

This machine must only be connected to a 220-230 V, 50 Hz, earthed (2-prong) outlet. Connecting it to any other kind of outlet will damage the machine and invalidate the warranty.

Never insert objects of any kind into slots or openings on the machine. This could create a risk of fire or electric shock. If an object falls into the machine that you cannot remove, unplug the machine and consult a qualified service representative.

Do not place this machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. The machine could be seriously damaged if it falls.

erase all of the contents.

♦ If documents received in memory are lost due to a power failure or other

interruption in the power supply, a CLEAR REPORT will be printed out when the power is restored. This gives information about the receptions lost, including the fax numbers of the transmitting machines if they are available.

Using the Answering Machine Connection

FO-3150SE_E4407_ENGLISH

Changing the outgoing message

The outgoing message (OGM) of your answering machine should be changed to inform callers who want to send a fax to press their Start key. For example, your message might go as follows:

"Hello. You've reached the ABC company. No one is available to take your call right now. Please leave a message after the beep or press your facsimile Start key to send a fax. Thank you for calling."

♦ It is advisable to keep the length of the message under 10 seconds. If it is

too long, you may have difficulty receiving faxes sent by automatic dialling.

♦ If your outgoing message must be longer than 10 seconds, leave a pause

of about four seconds at the beginning of the message. This will give your fax a chance to detect fax tones sent when automatic dialling is used.

Using the Answering Machine Connection

When you go out, activate the answering machine connection as follows:

Set the reception mode to A.M.

Set your answering machine to auto answer.

♦ Your answering machine must be set to answer on a maximum of two rings.

If not, you may not be able to receive faxes sent by automatic dialling.

♦ If your answering machine has a toll saver function, make sure that it will

answer by the fourth ring.

Note: If your answering machine has a remote retrieval function, make sure the code used to activate remote retrieval is different from the code used to activate fax reception with an extension telephone (see page 65). If they are the same, entering the code from an outside telephone to retrieve messages will cause the fax machine to be activated.

How answering machine mode operates

While you are out, all of your incoming calls will be answered by your answering machine and its outgoing message will play. Voice callers can leave a message. During this time, your fax will quietly monitor the line. If your fax detects a fax tone or a duration of silence greater than four seconds, it will take over the line and begin reception.

♦ If the connection is not good or there is noise on the line, the answering

machine and/or fax machine may not respond properly.

♦ The call counter on your answering machine may indicate that voice

messages were received, when only fax messages were received.

♦ To prevent the fax from taking over the line and beginning reception if you

call in from an external phone or answer on an extension phone, press any three keys (other than the code to activate fax reception, "5", "*", and "*") on the dial pad of the phone. This can only be performed from a phone capable of tone dialling.

When you return and turn off your answering machine, be sure to change the reception mode back to FAX or TEL!

Optional A.M. Mode Settings

If necessary, you can use the following settings to improve the response of the answering machine connection to incoming calls.

Quiet Detect Time

This function causes the fax machine to take over the line and begin reception if a certain duration of silence is detected after the answering machine answers.

Optional A.M. Mode Settings

FO-3150SE_E4407_ENGLISH

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 Dialling.

To change the setting, follow the steps below.

This setting can be used to delay the start of the Quiet Detect Time function. For example, if you want to insert a pause at the beginning of your answering machine’s outgoing message to ensure clear detection of fax signals, you can use this setting to delay the start of silence detection so that the pause will not cause the fax to take over the line.

Quiet Detect Start Timing has been turned off at the factory. If you want to use this function, turn it on by entering a 2-digit number equal to the desired number of seconds of the delay. As general guide, the delay time should be slightly longer than the pause before the outgoing message.
