Chapter 4. FUNCTION SETTINGS
There are some settings, such as the date and time, you should enter into your fax machine
before you begin using it. Once entered, these settings will remain in the machine until you
change them. You can begin customising the settings by pressing Menu on the control
panel. This activates the function mode and On - Screen Programming prompts. You can
complete a variety of settings in this mode.
Setting the Dialling Mode (Tone/Pulse)
Your fax machine supports both tone (or multi-frequency or DTMF) and pulse (or loop/
disconnect) dialling. It is initially set to TONE, so you do not need to change the setting if
you are connected to that kind of line. If you are using a pulse dial line, you can change the
setting to PULSE by following the steps below:
1. Press Menu .
You will see scrolling options on the
display. You can choose one.
2. Press 6 .
3. Press 1 .
After two seconds you will be
automatically prompted to select
pulse or tone.
4. Press Z (left arrow) or X (right
arrow) to find the dialling mode that
matches your telephone exchange.
Example: PULSE.

PABX and TRANSFER
Your fax machine is initially set to be connected with PSTN (Public Switched Telephone
Network) lines. However many offices use a central telephone system or Private Automatic
Branch Exchange (PABX). Your fax can be connected to most types of PABX; it has an “R”
key on the control panel, which helps to make certain PABX operations easier.
Also, you can transfer a call to another external by pressing R and you can easily gain
access to the outside line from your fax connected to PABX by just pressing R.
