RECEIVING DOCUMENTS
This is a special function in AUTO reception mode which is convenient for receiving
both faxes and voice calls. When it is turned on, your fax will detect whether an
incoming call is a voice call (including manually dialled fax transmissions), or an
automatically dialled fax. If it is a voice call, the fax will make a special ringing sound
to alert you to answer. If it is an automatically dialled fax transmission. reception will
begin automatically.

How the function operates
When a call comes in, your fax will answer it after the number of rings set with Option
Setting
2. After answering, the fax monitors the line for about 5 seconds to see if a fax
tone is being sent.
If your fax detects a fax tone (this means that the call is an automatically dialled
fax), it will automatically begin reception of the incoming document.
If your fax doesn’t detect a fax tone (this means that the call is a voice call or
manually dialled fax), it will make a special ringing sound (called pseudo ringing) for
15 seconds to alert you to answer. if you don’t answer within this time, your fax will
send a fax tone to the other machine to allow the calling party to send a fax
manually if they desire.
Note: The duration of pseudo ringing can be adjusted with Option Setting 7. See Chapter 7,
“Optional Settings”.
Silent ring fax recording system
You can also set your fax machine to receive faxes silenty, but ring to alert you to voice call. To
do so, set Option Setting
2 to “O”, and turn Option Setting 7 on (this procedure is described in
Chapter
7). When a voice call comes in, a special ringer on the fax machine will ring. Note that
extension telephones will not ring.
