Operation from extension telephones
If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, or an external 
telephone, you can make your machine take the call by using the Fax 
Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code 
51
, the
machine starts to receive a fax. (See Fax Detect on page 5-5.)
If the machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you 
to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code 
#51
to take the call at
an extension phone. (See Setting the F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode 
only) on page 5-4.)
If you answer a call and no one is on the line, you should assume that 
you’re receiving a manual fax.
■
Press
51
and wait for the chirp or until the machine’s LCD
displays Receiving, and then hang up.
Your caller will have to press Start to send the fax.
For Fax/Tel mode only
When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time 
(pseudo/double-ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call.
If you're at the machine, you can lift the handset to answer.
Lift the external telephone's handset, and then press
Tel/R
to
answer.
If you’re at an extension phone, you’ll need to lift the handset during 
the F/T Ring Time and then press 
#51
between the pseudo/double
rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone wants to send you a fax, 
send the call back to the machine by pressing 
51
.
