Operation from extension telephones
If you answer a fax call on an extension or external telephone in the
EXT. jack or on the line jack unit, you can make your machine take
the call by using the Remote Activation Code. When you press the
Remote Activation Code
5 1
, the machine starts to receive a fax.
(See Fax Detect on page 5-4.)
If the machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you
to take over, use the Deactivation Code
# 5 1
to take the call at an
extension phone. (See Setting the F/T Ring Time (F/T mode only) on
page 5-3.)
If you answer a call at an extension or external phone and no one is
on the line, you should assume that you're receiving a fax. At an
extension phone, press
5 1
, wait for fax-receiving tones (chirps),
and then hang up. At an external phone, press
5 1
and wait for
the phone to be disconnected before you hang up (the LCD shows
RECEIVING). Your caller will have to press
Fax Start
to send the
fax.
■
5 1
—From an extension phone, or an external phone,
5 1
will set the machine in receive mode.
■
# 5 1
—From an extension phone,
# 5 1
can stop the machine
receiving. This is effective in F/T and Fax Detect modes.
The Remote Activation Code can also be used by your callers. When
you are using an external TAD, your outgoing message (OGM)
should end with the statement "to send a fax, press
5 1
". (See
Recording Outgoing Message (OGM) on page 1-12.)
If you accidentally pick up an extension phone when a fax
message is being received, you may disrupt the transmission or
render some portions unreadable.
