Distinctive Ringing
Distinctive Ringing is a subscriber service offered by some telephone companies,
and allows you to have several telephone numbers on one phone line. Each
phone number has its own distinctive ringing pattern, so you know which phone
number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number for
your fax machine.
Your fax machine has a distinctive ringing function, allowing you to
dedicate one phone number just for receiving faxes. You’ll need to follow the
directions below to “register” the distinctive ringing pattern, so your fax
machine can recognize its incoming calls. You will need another person
standing by on another line to help you with Step 6 of this registration.
You can change or cancel the distinctive ringing pattern at any time. You can
switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax number,
make sure you reset this function.
You can register only one distinctive ringing pattern with the fax machine. Some
ringing patterns cannot be registered.
■ The fax machine will answer only calls to its registered number.
■ To have your TAD answer only the main number, the fax machine must be in
Manual Mode.
■ In EA’ Mode or FAX ONLY, the fax machine will answer all numbers on the
phone line.
