Setting the F/T Ring Time (FAX/TEL mode only) If you set the Receive Mode to FAX/TEL, you'll need to decide how long the fax machine will signal you with its special pseudo/double-ring when you have a voice call. (If it's a fax call, the fax machine prints the fax.) This pseudo double ringing happens after the initial ringing from the phone company. Only the fax machine rings and no other phones on the same line will ring with the special pseudo/double-ring. However, you can still answer the call on any extension phone (in a separate wall jack) on the same line as the fax machine.
