Operation from an External or Extension
Telephone
In order to activate the Remote Activation, you should first set
Menu

, REMOTE ACT to ON (see Changing Remote Codes) .
If you answer a fax call on an external or extension phone, you can make
your machine take over by using the Activation Code. When you press
the Activation Code
5 1
, the machine starts to receive a fax.
If the machine answers a voice call and F/T pseudo-ring for you to take
over, use the Deactivation Code
#
5
1
to take the call at an extension
phone. The Deactivation Code is used only in F/T mode.
If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a
fax. At the machine phone, press
Start
, then hang up. At an extension
phone, press
5
1
, wait for fax receiving tones (chirps), then hang up.
At an external phone, press
5
1
and wait for the phone to be
disconnected (the screen displays RECEIVE) before you hang up. (Your
caller will have to press
Start
to send the fax.)
If you accidentally pick up an extension phone when a fax message is
being received, you may disrupt the transmission or render some portions
unreadable.
Extension telephones are not pernitted in some countries, in such a case
the deactivation code will not work.
The Remote Activation Code also can be used by your callers. When you
are using an external TAD, your outgoing message (OGM) should end
with the statement “to send a fax, press
5
1
”.
