Operation from Extension Telephone
If you answer a fax call on an extension phone or on an external phone in
the EXT. jack, you can make your fax machine take over by using the Fax
Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code
5 1 , the fax
machine starts to receive a fax.
If the fax machine answers a voice call and double-rings for you to take
over, use the Telephone Answer Code
5 1 to take the call at an
extension phone.
If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a fax.
At the fax 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.)
