Recording outgoing message
(OGM) on an external TAD 7
Timing is important in recording this message.
The message sets up the ways to handle both
manual and automatic fax reception.
a Record 5 seconds of silence at the
beginning of your message. (This allows
your machine time to listen for the fax
CNG tones of automatic transmissions
before they stop.)
b Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
c End your 20-second message by giving
your Fax Receive Code for people
sending manual faxes. For example:
‘After the beep, leave a message or
send a fax by pressing l 51 and Start.’
Note
We recommend beginning your OGM with
an initial 5-second silence because the
machine cannot hear fax tones over a
resonant or loud voice. You may try
omitting this pause, but if your machine
has trouble receiving, then you must
re-record the OGM to include it.
Special line considerations 7
Roll over telephone lines 7
A roll over telephone system is a group of two
or more separate telephone lines that pass
incoming calls to each other if they are busy.
The calls are usually passed down or ‘rolled
over’ to the next available telephone line in a
preset order.
Your machine can work in a roll over system
as long as it is the last number in the
sequence, so the call cannot roll away. Do not
put the machine on any of the other numbers;
when the other lines are busy and a second
fax call is received, the fax call will be sent to
a line that does not have a fax machine. Your
machine will work best on a dedicated line.
Two-line telephone system 7
A two-line telephone system is nothing more
than two separate telephone numbers on the
same wall outlet. The two telephone numbers
can be on separate jacks (RJ11) or mixed into
one jack (RJ14). Your machine must be
plugged into an RJ11 jack. RJ11 and RJ14
jacks may be equal in size and appearance
and both may contain four wires (black, red,
green, yellow). To test the type of jack, plug in
a two-line telephone and see if it can access
both lines. If it can, you must separate the line
for your machine. (See Easy Receive
on page 53.)
