19 I N S T A L L A T I O N Connecting an External Telephone Answering Device (TAD) Sequence You might choose to connect an additional answering machine. When you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the machine, the TAD answers all calls. The machine "listens" for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesn't hear the CNG tones, the machine will not answer the call, and messages can be left on the TAD by callers in the normal way. The TAD must answer within a maximum of four rings. However, we recommend two rings as the TAD setting. The machine cannot hear CNG tones until the TAD has answered the call, and with four rings there are only 8-10 seconds of CNG tones left for the fax "handshake." Make sure you carefully follow instructions in this manual for recording your outgoing message. Do not use a "toll-saver" ring setting on the TAD. It is important that the TAD is connected via the EXT socket on the machine or on the line jack unit. Do not use a line doubler on the line jack as this can cause answering problems. Connections 1 You may connect an external TAD to your machine, as shown below. (Example for the U.K.) TAD TAD 2 Set your external TAD to two rings or less. 3 Record the outgoing message (see below). 4 Set the TAD to answer calls. 5 Set the Answer Mode to TAD:ANSWER MACH. by pressing Mode.
