ANALOG FAX SETUP
The Analog Fax option allows you to connect a fax machine and additional telephones to your
SX5. Your SX5D can be set up to use one or both of its RJ-11 jacks. In Single Jack mode, only
the jack designated with a telephone icon is operational. You can connect a fax machine or an
additional telephone into that jack, but to receive faxes you must have fax machine connected.
In Dual Jack mode, the unmarked jack is used for fax, and the jack marked with the telephone
icon is used for any additional phones.
To Set Your SX5D for Analog Fax
1) Press the MENU key.
2) Select Settings, then select Fax Settings.
3) Select RJ-11.
4) Select the mode you wish to use (Single or Dual Jack). The default is Dual Jack.
To Connect Your SX5D for Dual Jack Mode
1) Connect your fax machine to the unmarked phone jack on your SX5D.
2) Connect a regular phone to the phone jack that is marked with a telephone icon.
To Connect Your SX5D for Single Jack Mode
1) Connect your fax machine to the phone jack on your SX5D that is marked with a telephone
icon.
NOTE: You will have to enter the fax by-pass to send a fax when you are in single jack mode,
because the SX5D default setting is for voice calls. To send a fax, dial “# * 19 * 1 #” then dial
the number for where you are sending the fax. After the fax is sent, the SX5D will reset itself for
voice calls.
To Set Your SX5D for Digital Fax
1) Press the MENU key.
2) Select Settings, then select Fax Settings.
3) Select Serial Port.
NOTE: You must have your SX5D connected to a computer, or other device that is set up for
digital data, via the serial connector in order to send or receive digital faxes.
