SETUP RECEIVE 5 - 13
The MFC will only answer calls to its registered number.
The first two rings are silent on the MFC. This is because the fax
must «listen» to the ring pattern (to compare it to the pattern that
was ‘registered’). (Other telephones on the same line will ring.)
If you program the MFC properly, it will recognize the registered
ring pattern of the ‘fax number’ within 2 ring patterns and then
answer with a fax tone. When the ‘voice number’ is called, the
MFC will not answer.
Registering the Distinctive Ring pattern
Very important!
After you have set the Distinctive Ring feature to ON, the receive
mode is set to Manual automatically. Unless you have a TAD or
Voice Mail set up on the Distinctive Ring number, Manual mode
means you must answer all the calls yourself. You can not change
the receive mode to the other mode while the Distinctive Ring is set
to on.
