Automatically Switching Between the Fax and
an Answering Machine (TAD Reception)
This reception mode is convenient for using a separately purchased
telephone with answering machine capabilities together with this fax. If
an incoming call is from a fax machine, fax reception will begin
automatically. If the call is from a telephone, the functions of the
answering machine will engage, so, even if you cannot answer, the caller
will be able to leave a message.

Preparation
Make sure that Answering Machine is displayed on the basic fax screen.
If it is not, press the reception mode select key and then press the
[Answering Machine] key.
Note TAD Reception is only possible if a separately purchased
telephone with answering machine capabilities is connected to this
fax machine.
Refer to the Instruction Manual for the telephone in use for details
on recording and listening to messages, etc.
BE SURE that the number of times your answering machine is set
to ring is LESS than the number of times the fax is set to ring.
If you have selected TAD Reception as the current reception
mode, MAKE SURE that, in the first minute after the telephone
answers the incoming call, there are no silent pauses of 9
seconds or more [6 seconds or more for metric versions] in either
the message you record or the message you receive. If there is
such a pause, the silence detection function of this fax will be
activated and the fax machine will switch to fax reception.
