Setting F/T Ring Time
You need to determine how long the fax machine will notify you with its special
double-ring when you have a voice call. This ringing happens after the initial ringing
from the phone company. Only the fax machine rings, for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds;
no other phones on the same line ring the special double-ring. However, you can
answer the call on any phone on the same line as the fax machine.
1
Press Menu/Set, 2, 2.
2
Press to select how long the fax machine will
ring to alert you that you have a voice call, and then press Menu/Set.
3
Press Stop/Exit.
Now, when a call comes in and the machine is set to FAX/TEL mode, all phones on
this line will ring the number of times you selected in Ring Delay.
You can let the fax machine pick up and detect if it’s a fax or voice call. If it’s a fax
call, the machine prints the fax. If it’s a voice call, the machine signals you with a
double-ring for the length of time you selected in F/T Ring Time.
Record FAX/TEL Outgoing Message (F/T OGM)
This is the announcement played by your FAX (not an external TAD) when someone
calls and your machine is set to FAX/TEL mode. Although callers hear your
announcement, they cannot leave a message. To erase the announcement, follow the
directions on Erasing Outgoing Message (OGM), page 9-3.

Press Menu/Set, 8, 3. The screen prompts you to choose F/T OGM or MSG CTR
OGM.
2
Press to select F/T OGM (not MSG CTR OGM), and then press Menu/Set.
3
Press to select RECORD OGM? , and then press Menu/Set.
Then pick up the handset to record a message.

Replace the handset. Your OGM is played.
5
Press Stop/Exit.
Even if the caller hangs up during the double-ringing, the fax machine continues for
the set time.
