How Does FaxAbility Work? 7
Your telephone number will have the standard
ring pattern of long, long tone, while the new
number will have a ring pattern of long, silence,
long, etc. When FaxAbility is On, you will not
hear the first ring of all incoming calls on the fax
machine. Extension phones will ring as usual. If
the fax machine recognizes the ring pattern, all
ringing will stop and the fax machine will answer
and automatically receive the fax message.
Otherwise, you will hear the extension phones
and the fax machine continue to ring. The fax
machine always listens to the ring pattern
before it answers, so do not pick up the phone
during that time. You will quickly learn to
recognize the ring pattern for faxes, so you will
not be tempted to answer that number. Either
you or a telephone answering device can
answer the main number(s).
Note
After you have set the FaxAbility feature to
On, the receive mode is set to Manual
automatically. Unless you have a TAD or
Voice Mail set up on the FaxAbility
number, Manual mode means you must
answer all the call yourself. You can not
change the receive mode to the other
mode while the FaxAbility is set to on.
How to Turn FaxAbility OFF or ON 7
The FaxAbility function is designed to
accommodate the FaxAbility service provided
by Telecom. To change the setting, repeat
steps a-c; Step b is where you can choose
either On or Off.
Call Waiting beeps caused by incoming calls
on your main number can affect fax
transmissions. If you have FaxAbility Service
but don’t have Call Waiting, you need do
nothing at this stage. If you do have Call
Waiting as well as FaxAbility, set the Call
Waiting menu option to On. See below.

Caller ID 7
Caller ID is a telephone service that allows
the subscriber to see a display of the caller’s
phone number and name if available as the
telephone rings. It is a fast way to screen your
calls. You can respond quickly to calls you
missed, because Caller IDs are received and
stored in your machine memory.
Note
To get the Caller ID Service, apply for the
Caller ID service at your local telephone
company, if available.
