10 T/F TIMER PROG.

When set to the telephone/fax answering mode, your fax

machine automatically distinguishes between incoming

voice and fax calls. If the incoming call is a voice call, the

fax machine rings to tell you to pick up the handset. If you

do not answer, the fax machine automatically switches

back to fax mode to allow the calling party to send a fax.

The T/F TIMER function controls how long it waits before

switching back to fax mode.

Available settings are 20 SECONDS or 35 SECONDS

(default).

11 RING RESPONSE

This function controls how long your fax machine waits

before answering an incoming telephone call. The

available settings are 1 RING (default), 5 SECONDS, 10

SECONDS, 15 SECONDS, or 20 SECONDS.

!

At the default 1-ring setting, your fax machine answers

calls immediately, and you will not hear any ring. If you

need to hear the ring, change to one of the other

settings.

12 DISTINCTIVE RING

Some telephone carriers offer a service called Distinctive

Ring. Distinctive Ring lets you have different numbers on

one line, each with its own distinctive ring. You can then

use one number exclusively as a fax number without the

expense of a second line. (Your local telephone carrier can

provide you with more information about this service,

which usually has an additional charge.) To use this

function, refer to Setting Distinctive Ring below.

Available settings are OFF (default) and ON.
