HOW TO RECEIVE DOCUMENTS

There are two methods for receiving documents with your

FAX-220

unit:

• Automatic Reception
• Manual Reception

NOTE:

If a telephone connected in parallel with the unit is used during receipt of a document,

the received document may include distorted characters.

Automatic Reception

The factory setting is for AUTO. ANSWER to be ON and for the unit to pick up the reception
on the first ring. Therefore, if you are satisfied with this setting, there is absolutely nothing you

have to do to receive documents automatically, except to make sure that the unit is plugged in
and that there is enough recording paper in the unit.

If for some reason you prefer for the unit to pick up automatically on the fourth (4) ring, you

can reprogram the AUTO. ANSWER function using the simple procedure described in the

PROGRAMMING THE UNIT section of the Manual.

Usually, the reason for this is as follows. The fax unit is on your desk and you can pick up the
phone before the unit has rung four times. If you hear a voice, you simply answer the caller. If

you hear fax tones, you can receive the document manually (see below). Of course, you can
leave the handset on-hook and press

HOOK.

Then you will hear the rings and the voice or fax

tones over the monitor. If you hear fax tones, press

START.

Manual Reception

To switch the unit to the MANUAL RECEPTION mode, you have to turn off the AUTO
ANSWER mode. This is done by following the simple instructions on page 27.

When you hear a ring, pick up the handset and, if you hear a voice, start the conversation. If
you hear fax tones, press

START.

NOTE:

Do not leave the document in the feeder when the unit is used to Manual reception

mode. The unit can not receive document.
