Chapter 6 NOTE Ring Pattern #1 is often called Short-Short and is the most commonly used. If the ring pattern you received is not on this chart, please call your telephone company and ask for one that is shown.  The machine will only answer calls to its registered number.  The first two rings are silent on the machine. This is because the fax must "listen" to the ring pattern (to compare it to the pattern that was "registered"). Other telephones on the same line will ring.  If you program the machine properly, it will recognize the registered ring pattern of the "fax number" within 2 ring patterns and then answer with fax tones. When the "voice number" is called, the machine will not answer. Registering the Distinctive Ring pattern 6 Very Important!
