Receiving with distinctive ring service

This unit has been equipped with a ring pattern detection feature. This feature enables you to use the
distinctive ring service provided by your telephone company effectively.

The distinctive ring service gives you up to 3 phone numbers on a single telephone line, each with a

different ring pattern.

When you wish to use one of the phone numbers as a facsimile telephone number, program the ringing

pattern allocated for fax use. When the unit detects a call matching the selected distinctive ringing pattern,

the unit will automatically activate the fax function to receive documents.
To use this feature properly, set the unit to the TEL/FAX or EXT. TAM mode (if an answering machine is

used).

In the TEL/FAX mode, when a distinctive ring pattern is detected, the unit will automatically answer the line

and activate the fax function to receive documents. If other ringing patterns are received, the unit will ring

until you pick up the phone.

In the EXT. TAM mode, when a distinctive ring pattern is detected, the unit will automatically answer the line

and activate the fax function to receive documents. If other ringing patterns are received, the unit and the

answering machine will activate depending on the call.

Note:

•

For more information on the distinctive ring service, please contact your telephone company.

• The unit answers a distinctive ring call after the second ring automatically. To change the number of rings,

change the FAX ring count (see page 19) after setting the ring detection feature.

• When in the FAX mode, the unit will automatically answer all calls and activate the fax function.
• When in the TEL mode, you have to answer all calls manually.
