Operating instructions

16
The intelligent fax switch enables you to phone and fax
from the same telephone connection and use additional
devices. The fax switch separates fax and voice messages.
For example, it can receive fax messages silently, i.e.
without ringing to avoid causing a disturbance.
The operating modes S and M for day and night
operation allow you to decide on different modes during
the day and at night; how often the machine should ring
prior to receipt of faxes or before the answering machine is
turned on.
Example:
During daytime it is assumed that calls should ring. After a
set time the fax reception is turned on and messages can be
left on the (internal or external) answering machine. At
night it is assumed that disturbances are minimised. Faxes
are then received silently and calls ring more quietly.
You may change-over the operating mode between S and
M of your fax machine automatically using the timer
function U. The integral clock ensures that your machine
is changed over at 10 pm to M and at 6 am to S. Of
course you may adjust these times to suit your own
requirements. The display allows you to check the current
operating status. You change-over between S and M by
briefly pressing SM until the display shows the required
symbol.

If, for example, you do not wish to be disturbed by calls or faxes
arriving at night, you may set the number of ringing signals to 0.
Faxes are then received silently and calls are immediately answered
by the answering machine, provided you have switched the an-
swering machine on.

reception by pressing START. This may be sensible for example,
if you wish to receive your faxes by modem at your computer.
