Using a non-Brother cordless
external telephone 6
If your non-Brother cordless telephone is
connected to the EXT. jack of the machine
and you typically carry the cordless handset
elsewhere, it is easier to answer calls during
the Ring Delay.
If you let the machine answer first, you will
have to go to the machine so you can press
Hook to send the call to the cordless handset.
Using remote codes 6
Fax Receive Code 6
If you answer a fax call on an extension
telephone, you can tell your machine to
receive it by dialing the Fax Receive Code
l 51. Wait for the chirping sounds and then
replace the handset. (See Easy Receive
on page 39.)
If you answer a fax call at the external
telephone connected to the EXT. jack of the
machine, you can make the machine receive
the fax by pressing Black Start and choosing
Receive.
Telephone Answer Code 6
If you receive a voice call and the machine is
in Fax/Tel mode, it will start to sound the F/T
(pseudo/double) ring after the initial Ring
Delay. If you pick up the call on an extension
telephone you can turn the F/T Ring off by
pressing #51 (make sure you press this
between the rings).
If the machine answers a voice call and
pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, you
can take the call at the external telephone
connected to the EXT. jack of the machine by
pressing Hook.
