You can pick up the handset to answer
the call.
If you do not pick up the handset, the
unit will switch to the fax.
All extension phones {if connected) will ring twice before the unit automatically answers the line.
This number of rings can be changed. See “Setting the number of rings to answer in the TEL/
FAX mode” on page 32.
Telephone fee will be charged to callers from this moment.
If a voice call is detected, the unit will ring up to 3 times. This number of rings is adjustable to a
maximum of 6. See "Silent ring fax recognition system” on page 32.
Notes:
• The unit can distinguish between a voice and fax call by detecting the calling tone (CNG), sent by the
fax machines.
Some fax messages that are transmitted manually may not send with a calling tone. These calls must be
manually received after the unit rings and the call is answered.
• If you hear the facsimile unit ringing, you can pick up the handset on the facsimile unit or another
extension (if connected on the same line) to answer the call.
