Advanced Receiving Operations Operation from Extension Telephones If you answer a fax call on an extension phone or on an external phone in the EXT. jack, you can make your FAX/MFC take over by using the Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code 5 1, the FAX/MFC starts to receive a fax. (See Easy Receive, page 5-3.) If the FAX/MFC answers a voice call and double-rings for you to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone. (See Setting F/T Ring Time, page 5-3.) If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you're receiving a fax. At the FAX/MFC phone press Fax Start, and then hang up. At an extension phone, press 5 1, wait for fax receiving tones (chirps), and then hang up. At an external phone, press 5 1 and wait for the phone to be disconnected before you hang up (the LCD shows RECEIVING). (Your caller will have to press Fax Start to send the fax.) For FAX/TEL Mode Only When the FAX/MFC is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (double-ringing) to alert you to a voice call. If you're at the FAX/MFC, you can lift the handset to answer. If you're at an extension phone, you'll need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time, and then press # 5 1 between the double-rings. If no one is on the line or if someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back to the FAX/MFC by pressing 5 1. Changing the Remote Codes Remote Codes might not work with some telephone systems. The preset Fax Receive Code is 5 1. The preset Telephone Answer Code is # 5 1. Note If you are always disconnected when accessing your external TAD remotely, try changing the Fax Receive Code from 5 1 to # # # and the Telephone Answer Code from # 5 1 to 9 9 9. 1 Press Menu/Set, 2, 1, 4. 2 Press or to select ON (or OFF), and then press Menu/Set. 3 If you want to, enter a new Fax Receive Code, and then press Menu/Set. 4 If you want to, enter a new Telephone Answer Code, and then press Menu/Set. 5 Press Stop/Exit. 4.REMOTE CODE REMOTE ACT.:ON?
