Using the Fax Management Feature 9
On any system telephone, you can program a button with lights to serve as a Fax Management
button. The lights next to this button tell you when the fax machine is in use, available, or not
answering (see Ta ble 9-1). You can also use the button to transfer calls from your extension to the
fax machine with a single touch.
Programming for Fax Management Button 9
To program a Fax Management button:
1. Assign the fax machine extension by using Fax Machine Extensions (#601).
2. Program the fax machine extension number on an Auto Dial button (see “Auto Dialing” on
page 8-5).

Make sure extension Y is not assigned as a Call Waiting (#316) extension, Pickup
Group Extension (#501), Calling Group Extension (#502), Night Service Group
Extension (#504), or Hunt Group Extension (#505).
