Using the Machine with an Answering Machine Quiet Detect Time Quiet Detect Time is the function that enables the machine to be used along with an answering machine for both phone messages and faxes. After the answering machine has answered, any duration of silence longer than a certain threshold time will prompt the machine to take over the line and prepare to receive a fax. The Quiet Detect Time can be set from 00 to 10 seconds, following the procedure below. Factory setting: 05 Step Press these keys Comments 1 FUNCTION TUV 2 "A.M. MODE" will appear in the display. 6 "QUIET DETECT TIME" will appear in the display. 3 to Enter the Quiet Detect Time in seconds, from 00 to 10. (Setting "00" turns off Quiet Detect Time) 4 ENTER "STORED" will appear in the display. 5 STOP STOP Press the STOP key twice to exit. Notes: • The machine has been set at the factory for a Quiet Detect Time of 5 seconds, which gives the best performance for most answering machines. However, you may have to adjust the Quiet Detect Time depending on your answering machine's disconnect time, the time before the machine disconnects the line after a period of silence. If your machine has a short disconnect time, you may have to shorten the Quiet Detect Time. However, if the machine is interrupting callers in the middle of messages, you should set a longer Quiet Detect Time. • If there is a pause at the end of your answering machine message, make sure that the Quiet Detect Time is longer than this pause. • Setting Quiet Detect Time to 00 turns the function off. However, the machine will not be able to receive faxes sent using manual dialing (picking up the receiver, dialing the number, and pressing the FAX START key when the fax tone is heard).
