Note

Although most users leave the answer mode set to automatic, voice callers

who dial the fax phone number will hear fax tones if the phone is not

answered, or if they do not hang up by the specified number of

rings-to-answer. If you do not want voice callers to hear fax tones, use the

manual setting, but remember that fax calls are not received automatically.

Setting rings-to-answer

When the answer mode is set to automatic, the product’s

rings-to-answer setting determines the number of times the phone rings

before an incoming call is answered.

If the product is connected to a line receiving both fax and voice calls (a

shared line) with an answering machine, you may need to adjust the

rings-to-answer. The number of rings-to-answer for the product must be

greater than the rings-to-answer on the answering machine. This allows

the answering machine to answer the incoming call and record a

message if it is a voice call. When the answering machine answers the

call, the product listens to the call and automatically answers it if it

detects fax tones.

The default setting for rings-to-answer is two.
