Handset

Connect the handset as shown and place it on the handset rest.

♦

The ends of the handset lead are identical, so they will go into either socket.

Make sure the handset cord goes into the socket marked with a handset symbol on the side of the machine!

Selecting the Reception Mode

Your fax machine has four modes for receiving incoming calls and faxes:

TEL mode: This mode is the most convenient for receiving phone calls. Faxes can also be received; however, all calls must first be answered by picking up the fax’s handset or an extension phone connected to the same line.

FAX mode: Select this mode when you only want to receive faxes on your line. The fax machine will automatically answer all calls and receive incoming faxes.

TEL/FAX mode: This mode is convenient for receiving both faxes and voice calls. When a call comes in, the fax will detect whether it is a voice call (including manually dialled fax transmissions), or an automatically dialled fax. If it is a voice call, the fax will make a special ringing sound to alert you to answer. If it is an automatically dialled fax transmission, reception will begin automatically.

A.M. mode: Use this mode only if you have connected an answering machine to the fax (see Chapter 6). Select this mode when you go out to receive voice messages in your answering machine and faxes on your fax machine.

If you have connected an answering machine to your fax as described in Connections in Chapter 1, you can receive both voice messages and fax transmissions on the same line while you are out. To use the connection, first change the outgoing message of your answering machine, and then set the reception mode of your fax to A.M. when you go out.

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."

Comments:

While you are out, all of your incoming calls will be answered by the 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.

Note:

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.

6. Answering

Answering Machine Connection

Optional A.M. Connection 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.

Time selections for the period of silence are 1 to 10 seconds. Quiet Detect Time has been set to 6 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 interrup ting callers bef or e the y can lea ve 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 sile nc e.

To change the Quiet Detect Time setting, reset Option Setting 9 as explained in Chapter 8, Option Settings.

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.

Answering Machine Connection

Select Auto Receive

When this function is turned on, your fax will answer the call after 5 rings if the answering machine for some reason fails to answer before that time. This ensures that you will receive fax messages even if the answering machine’s tape fills up or the answering machine is not turned on.

This function has bee n tur ne d of f at t he fac tor y. If you want to turn it on, reset Option Setting 12 as explained in Chapter 8, Option Settings.

Note:

When this function is turned on, make sure that the answering machine is set to answer on 4 rings or less. If it isn’t, the fax will always answer first, preventing callers from leaving voice messages.

Quiet Detect Start Timing

This setting can be used to delay the start of the Quiet Detect Time function. For exa m ple , i f yo u wan t to in se rt a pa us e at the beg i nn i ng 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 resetting Option Setting 10 to the desired delay time (1 to 15 seconds). This procedure is explained in Chapter 8, Option Settings. As a general guide, the delay time should be slightly longer than the pause before the outgoing message.

Off Hook Hold

This setting can be used to make the fax automatically take over the line and attempt reception after a set number of seconds.

For normal operation, we recommend that you do not turn this function on; however, if you are having trouble receiving faxes in A.M. mode, you can try various time settings to see if it helps. Turn the function on by setting Option Setting 11 to the desired number of seconds (1 to 255 seconds). This procedure is explained in Chapter 8, Option Settings.

Polling (Requesting a Fax Transmission)

Polling allows you to call another fax machine and have it send a document (previously loaded in its feeder) to your machine without operator assistance. In other words, the receiving fax machine, not the transmitting fax machine, initiates the transmission. You can use your machine to both poll and be polled by others.

To use the polling function, you must first set Rapid Key 05/POLL for use as a polling key. This is done by changing Option Setting 17, as described in Chapt e r 8, Option Settings. (Note that when Rapid Key 05/POLL is set as a polling key, it cannot be used for Rapid Key Dialling.)
