Programming instructions
Answer: You must delay the STICK to answer after the phone company sends
the CID data packet, between the 1st and 2nd ring
from the phone company. See programming instructions in the Operation Manual
(Sections 2 & 3) and set "Rings To Answer" option
regi
ster 14 to value of 2.
Question: How do I program the STICK?
Answer: Specific instructions are provided in Sections 2 & 3 of the Operations
Manual. It explains commands and responses. Tip:
When entering a command to change the value in a register,
enter the 2 digit
register # followed immediately by the data to be
entered. Examples; set Register 14 to 2 (enter 142), set register 13 to #345
(enter 13#345).
Question: All incoming calls, including Fax & Modem, ring on the telephone.
What's wrong?
Answer: Either you have lost power to the STICK (check that LED is glowing red)
or the program options in the STICK may have
gotten "scrambled" by a power glitch causing the STICK not to answer. In the
first case, confirm your power source. In the seco
nd
case, see Operations Manual Sections 2 & 3 and reset the options to Factory
Presets, then re
-
program any custom settings you may
have had, i.e. CID ring to answer delay.
Question: Some FAX calls ring to my phones while others are received by the
FAX machine directly. What's wrong?
Answer: The FAX calls that are ringing on your phone are probably being
initiated by the sender in a manual way, which will not have
the CNG tone necessary for automatic routing and reception. The sender must
either i
nitiate their call in a way that will generate the
CNG tone or you will need to enter the *2 Security Access code on your phone to
transfer the call to your Fax machine. Another
reason some FAX calls ring to my phones while others are received by the FAX
machine directly is some equipment used for
sending FAX's may not be able to emit the CNG signal. They must then use the
correct access stream as shown in the Operations
Manual Section 4.3 to direct the call to the FAX port with the Security Access
Code
, i.e. 555
