The Ring Delay setting sets the number of

If you have external or extension telephones
on the same line as the machine, choose the
maximum number of rings. (See Fax Detect
on page 38.)

the line rings before the machine

F/T Ring Time
(Fax/Tel mode only) 5
When somebody calls your machine, you and
your caller will hear the normal telephone ring
sound. The number of rings is set by the Ring
Delay setting.
If the call is a fax, then your machine will
receive it; however, if it is a voice call the
machine will sound the F/T ring (a fast
double-ring) for the time you have set in the
F/T Ring Time setting. If you hear the F/T ring
it means that you have a voice caller on the
line.
Because the F/T ring is made by the machine,
extension and external (MFC-1810 and
MFC-1811 only) telephones will not ring.
a Make sure you are in FAX mode.
b Press Menu, 2, 1, 2.
c Press a or b to choose how long the
machine will ring to alert you that you
have a voice call.
Press OK.
d Press Stop/Exit.
Fax Detect 5
If Fax Detect is On: 5
The machine can receive a fax automatically,
even if you answer the call. When you see
Receiving on the LCD or hear a click on the
phone line through the handset you are
using, just replace the handset. Your
machine will do the rest.
(For MFC-1815)
If Fax Detect is Semi:
5
The machine will only receive a fax call
automatically if you answered it using the
machine’s handset.
If Fax Detect is Off: 5
If you are at the machine and answer a fax
call first by lifting the external handset
(MFC-1810 and MFC-1811 only) or the
machine (MFC-1815 only), press Start and
then press 2 to receive a fax.
• If you send faxes from a computer on the
same telephone line and the machine
intercepts them, set Fax Detect to Off.
• We do not recommend having a PC and a
fax machine on the same line.
a Make sure you are in FAX mode.
b Press Menu, 2, 1, 3.
c Press a or b to choose On, Semi
