Sequence of External TAD Reception
When you leave your machine set in TAD mode, all calls will be answered by the externally
connected telephone answering device, and fax calls will be received automatically provided they
come from a machine which sends standard Calling tone (CNG).
Connecting an External Telephone
Your machine is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular phone. However, you can also
connect a separate telephone to your machine, as shown below.
Whenever this external phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays EXT. TEL IN USE, and, if
the fax handset is lifted, an alarm sounds.
To disconnect the call on the external phone and switch to the fax, lift the handset and press Tel
(FAX-T74) or Speaker Phone (FAX-T76).
Incoming Call
The call is picked up
by the TAD.
(Recommended short
TAD ring delay such
as 1 or 2 rings.)
The external TAD
outgoing message
begins (recommended
length of 10 seconds
or less).
The caller leaves a
voice message on the
external TAD.
The caller must press
Start or enter your
remote activation
code to activate the
machine and press

received on paper.
