ER CALLS
The TAD Mode
When you leave your fax machine set in TAD mode, phone calls will be forwarded to the externally
connected telephone answering device, and your fax calls will be received automatically.
Connecting an External TAD to the Unit
You may connect an external TAD to your fax machine, as shown below. Use the “EXT.” jack on
your fax machine.
Helpful Hints
When You Use TAD Mode
1. You can inform callers beforehand that if they call manually and get your
telephone answering device when they want to send a fax, all they have to do
is press your remote code to activate (>K51 unless you have changed it) your fax
machine.
2. Another alternative is to record a TAD message that says, for example, “This
answering machine is connected to a fax unit. If you may leave a voice message,
please speak after beep. If you may send a fax message, please press (your
remote activation code) after beep. Thank you.”
3. You need to erase the incoming messages on your external telephone answering
device when it’s full, or TAD mode will not answer any calls, faxes or otherwise.
