18 Chapter 2. Settings
Manual Mode
In the Manual mode, your fax machine behaves like a
normal telephone. If you receive a fax call, you must start
fax reception manually (either a whistle tone or silence
will be heard in the handset). In order to receive the fax,
you must press START. Automatic reception is not pos-
sible with this setting.  e Manual mode is useful if you
would like to receive faxes on a connected computer.
Fax Mode
In the Fax mode, the machine will ring for as many
times as you have set with function 17.  en the fax re-
ception switches on. You should select this mode if you
primarily receive faxes at your fax machine. If you lift up
the handset on an additional telephone that is connected
to the EXT socket, and you hear that you are receiving
a fax call (whistling tone or silence), you can start the
fax reception process by pressing
*5
, or by pressing
START on the fax machine.
EXT/Answering machine Mode
You should set the device to this mode if you have ad-
ditional devices connected to the EXT socket of your
fax machine, especially an external answering machine.
In the EXT/ANSW. mode, your fax machine works in
the same way as in the Manual mode. If an addition-
ally connected answering machine receives a call, your fax
machine will check to determine whether or not the in-
coming call is a fax transmission. If the device recognises
a fax signal, it will automatically receive the fax transmis-
sion. If you do not have an answering machine connected
or if a connected answering machine does not accept the
call, the fax machine will take over the call after a prede-
termined number of rings and automatically receive any
possible fax transmission being sent.
If you lift up the handset on an additional telephone that
is connected to the EXT socket, and you hear that you
are receiving a fax call (whistling tone or silence), you can
start the fax reception process by pressing
*5
, or by
pressing START on the fax machine.
Automatic Mode
If the Automatic mode is active, the fax machine will
check to determine whether the incoming call is a fax
transmission or a telephone call.  e fax machine will
automatically receive fax transmissions. While the fax
machine is checking the call, it continues to ring. You
can accept telephone calls at any time. After a predeter-
mined number of rings, the fax machine will take over
the call and automatically receive a possible silent fax
transmission.
If you pick up the handset on an additional telephone
that is connected to the same line and the fax machine
continues to ring, you can disconnect the fax machine
from the telephone call by pressing
**
on the addi-
tional telephone.
¡
To use this function, additional telephones
must be set to the tone dialling mode
(DTMF tones). (See the chapter entitled Instal-
lation / Easylink).
