Brother FAX-2000P - Manual (Page 49)

Setting the Reception Mode
Your Brother FAX has four kinds of reception modes as shown below. The mode
can be changed by pressing the AUTO/MAN RECEIVE key in standby status.
Tel Ready (Manual Reception)
In this mode, the Brother FAX can accept an incoming telephone call. Ringing
will continue until the handset is picked up or the caller disconnects the line.
If the call is from a telephone, begin speaking after picking up the handset. If the
call is from a facsimile, press START to begin reception.
Set your Brother FAX to this mode if the telephone line is shared by a telephone
and a facsimile, but is normally used more often as a telephone.
Fax Ready
In this mode, the Brother FAX will accept an incoming call from a facsimile or
a telephone.
A tone will ring the number of times which you set for “# of Rings.” You can
pick up the handset before line capture. If you do not pick up the handset,
facsimile transmission will begin after line capture, but an unanswered phone
call will disconnect. If you pick up the handset, a fax call will require that you
press START to begin transmission, or, you may begin speaking if the call is
from a telephone. Set your Brother FAX to this mode if you have a facsimile
dedicated line.
Tel/Fax Ready
In this mode, the Brother FAX will determine whether a call is from a facsimile
or a telephone. If the caller Is a facsimile, the Brother FAX starts receiving a
message after automatic line capture. In the meantime, if the caller Is a
telephone, your Brother FAX sends out the following voice message to the caller
and generates simulated ring tones. "Flello. If you wish to send a fax, transmit
now. If not, check the number and dial again. Thank you.”
You can pick up the handset while the voice message is being output (10 sec.)
Ans./Fax Ready
Set your Brother FAX to this mode when an answering apparatus is connected
as an external telephone. Refer to “Using the Brother FAX telephone” in PART 1.
