F/T Ring Time 
(Fax/Tel mode only)
6
When somebody calls your machine, you and 
your caller will hear the normal telephone ring 
sound. The number of rings is set by the Ring 
Delay setting. 
If the call is a fax, then your machine will 
receive it; however, if it is a voice call the 
machine will sound the F/T ring (a fast 
double-ring) for the time you have set in the 
F/T Ring Time setting. If you hear the F/T ring 
it means that you have a voice caller on the 
line.
Because the F/T ring is made by the machine, 
extension and external telephones will not 
ring; however, you can still answer the call on 
any telephone. (For more information see 
Using Remote Codes on page 61.)
