If you answer a call that is a fax message, you can use the Remote Activation Code to make your
fax machine take over the call. If your fax machine answers a telephone call that is for you, you
can use the Remote Deactivation Code (#51) to pick up the call at an extension phone. (You do not
need a code to take over a call at the fax machine.) You must use a touch tone phone.
